A method and an apparatus for determining a position of a shelf are provided. The method may include: obtaining a number of automated guided vehicles with shelf scanning devices; determining, based on the number of the automated guided vehicles, a scanning area of a place to which each automated guided vehicle belongs; determining, based on the scanning area, a scanning route of the scanning area to which each automated guided vehicle belongs; transmitting the scanning route of the scanning area to which the automated guided vehicle belongs, to the automated guided vehicle; and determining a position of a shelf in the scanning area to which the automated guided vehicle belongs based on scanning information of a shelf scanning device on the automated guided vehicle and position information of the automated guided vehicle.

A work vehicle including a control unit configured to control traveling of the work vehicle such that the work vehicle and an oncoming vehicle are able to pass each other in a vehicle passage, wherein the control unit controls the traveling of the work vehicle such that the work vehicle travels in a first region when the work vehicle and the oncoming vehicle pass each other, and controls the traveling of the work vehicle such that the work vehicle is retreated to a third region to which the work vehicle is capable of being retreated from a second region in a case where the work vehicle is incapable of traveling in the first region when the work vehicle and the oncoming vehicle pass each other.

A moving body capable of autonomously traveling and having a function of leading a first vehicle that travels while following the moving body, the moving body comprises a first sensor that detects an obstacle; and a controller configured to execute sensing of a region around the first vehicle by the first sensor before the moving body starts leading the first vehicle.

An acquisition unit (11) acquires information indicating the task performance ability possessed by one or more other autonomous behavior apparatuses. On the basis of the task performance ability possessed by a first autonomous behavior apparatus and the task performance ability possessed by the one or more other autonomous behavior apparatuses, a determination unit (12) determines a destination for the first autonomous behavior apparatus. A connection unit (13) communicatively connects a second autonomous behavior apparatus and the first autonomous behavior apparatus, said second autonomous behavior apparatus being among the one more more other autonomous behavior apparatuses with which the first autonomous behavior apparatus can communicate. A movement control unit (14) causes the first autonomous behavior apparatus to move to the destination while the communicative connection between the second autonomous behavior apparatus and the first autonomous behavior apparatus is maintained.

A vehicle to transport a first drone and a second drone includes a controller. The controller is configured to release the first drone from the vehicle with instructions for the first drone to move a package container to a package container reception point. The controller is configured to release the second drone from the vehicle. The second drone is configured to provide data to the first drone. The data is related to a route from the vehicle to the package container reception point.

A method of determining priority among a plurality of mobile robots is provided. The method includes detecting a second mobile robot that shares a space with a first mobile robot, exchanging a first consensus policy of the first mobile robot for a second consensus policy of the second mobile robot, and controlling movement of the first mobile robot according to a moving method determined based on the first consensus policy and the second consensus policy.
