Abstract: A robot control system according to an embodiment is a robot control system that controls a mobile robot configured to be able to move autonomously inside a facility. When the mobile robot moves from a first area inside the facility to a second area through a partition configured to be openable and closable, a moving route of the mobile robot is set based on the mobile robot that is determined from an image captured by a first camera that photographs the first area and an obstacle that is determined from an image captured by a second camera that photographs the second area.

Abstract: When an autonomous mobile robot is acquires enters a stuck state in which the autonomous mobile robot cannot autonomosly move, an autonomous mobile apparatus control system according to the present disclosure transmits an autonomous cancel notification for notifying the higher-level management apparatus that the autonomous mobile robot cannot autonomosly move, waits for an operation instruction from the higher-level management apparatus after the transmission of the autonomous cancel notification. The higher-level management apparatus gives an operation instruction to the autonomous mobile robot in response to receiving the autonomous cancel notification based on information acquired from at least one of the plurality of environment cameras. The autonomous mobile robot is configured to resume autonomous driving in response to safety confirmation based on a proximity sensor provided in the autonomous mobile robot after operating in accordance with the operation instruction.

Abstract: A control system according to the present disclosure executes system control that controls a system including a mobile robot that autonomously moves. The control system executes a group classification process of recognizing a feature of a person present around the mobile robot and classifying, based on the feature, the person into a preset first group or second group. The control system above selects a first operation mode when the person belonging to the first group is present around the mobile robot and selects a second operation mode that is different from the first operation mode when the person belonging to the first group is not present around the mobile robot. The control system above controls, when the second operation mode is selected, the group classification process so as to execute a process with a smaller processing load than a processing load when the first operation mode is selected.
