The system also includes a second robot including a memory storing instructions that when executed by a processor effectuates operations including capturing data of an environment and the second robot executing a second part of the task after the first robot completes the first part of the task, the completion of the first part of the task being indicated by a signal received with the processor of the second robot.

Provided a device for controlling a mobile object which one or more occupants are on board and which is movable both on a roadway and in a predetermined region different from the roadway, the device including: a road type recognizer configured to recognize which type of road the mobile object is moving on, out of the roadway and the predetermined region, on the basis of an output of an external detection device; and a controller configured to move the mobile object in either a first travel state in which a speed of the mobile object is limited to a first speed or a second travel state in which the speed of the mobile object is limited to a second speed lower than the first speed on the basis of the recognized road type, wherein the controller moves the mobile object in the first travel state in a case where it is recognized that the mobile object is moving on the roadway, moves the mobile object in the second travel state in a case where it is recognized that the mobile object is moving in the predetermined region, and forcibly switches the travel state under control even in a case where it is recognized that the mobile object is moving on the roadway or in the predetermined region when an operation for switching the travel state is performed by a switching operation unit that accepts a switching operation of the travel state performed by the occupant.

A mobile object control device for controlling a mobile object capable of moving both on a roadway and in a predetermined region different from the roadway includes a road type recognition unit configured to recognize whether the mobile object is moving on the roadway or in the predetermined region on the basis of an output of an external environment detection device configured to detect an external situation of the mobile object and a control unit configured to limit a speed of a case where the mobile object moves on the roadway to a first speed and limit a speed of a case where the mobile object moves in the predetermined region to a second speed lower than the first speed. The road type recognition unit iteratively recognizes whether the mobile object is moving on the roadway or in the predetermined region on the basis of recognition results of a previous first period and the output of the external environment detection device and causes a storage device to store a recognition result. The road type recognition unit outputs a recognition result indicating that the mobile object is moving on a sidewalk during a second period to the control unit when at least some of the recognition results of the previous first period in the storage device are lost.

A mobile object control device includes a recognition unit configured to recognize a surrounding situation of a mobile object on the basis of an output of an external environment detection device configured to detect an external situation of the mobile object and a control unit configured to control at least a drive unit configured to move the mobile object. The control unit controls the drive unit on the basis of a situation of an intersection recognized by the recognition unit so that the mobile object is stopped when the recognition unit recognizes that the mobile object is moving in a predetermined region and the mobile object needs to stop in accordance with a state of a first traffic light located in a movement direction of the mobile object in front of the intersection.

A mobile body control device adjusts a stop position of the mobile body based on an instruction of a user. The device acquires instruction information for designating a predetermined target and acquires a captured image captured in the mobile body. The device determines a position of the predetermined target from the mobile body as a stop position based on a region of the predetermined target identified in the captured image and control traveling of the mobile body toward the determined stop position. In a case where the predetermined target is not identified in the captured image while the mobile body is traveling toward the stop position, the device updates the stop position determined with respect to the predetermined target according to a motion of the mobile body to control the traveling of the mobile body to the stop position.

A mobile object control device for controlling a mobile object capable of moving both on a roadway and in a predetermined region different from the roadway includes a road type recognition unit configured to recognize whether the mobile object is moving on the roadway or in the predetermined region on the basis of an output of an external environment detection device configured to detect an external situation of the mobile object and a control unit configured to limit a speed of a case where the mobile object moves on the roadway to a first speed and limit a speed of a case where the mobile object moves in the predetermined region to a second speed lower than the first speed. The road type recognition unit adds a point value to a roadway score every time each of a plurality of first events indicating that the mobile object is moving on the roadway is recognized on the basis of the output of the external environment detection device and recognizes that the mobile object is moving on the roadway when the roadway score is greater than or equal to a first threshold value.

A moving body control system of the present invention comprises: acquiring a captured image of a travel area of a destination of a moving body; recognizing a road shape included in the captured image; and generating a path of the moving body based on the road shape recognized by the recognition means. In the path generation, when the recognition means recognizes a road shape including an entrance section and at least one exit section accompanied by a course change, a first path from a current position of the moving body to the entrance section, and a second path from the entrance section to an exit section to be identified in accordance with indication information about the destination of the moving body are generated.

A mobile object control device for controlling a mobile object capable of moving both on a roadway and in a prescribed region different from the roadway includes a road-type recognition unit configured to recognize whether the mobile object is moving on the roadway or in the prescribed region and a control unit configured to at least partially control a speed of the mobile object. The control unit limits the speed of the mobile object moving on the roadway to a first speed and limits the speed of the mobile object moving in the prescribed region to a second speed that is lower than the first speed.

An information processing apparatus that estimates an instruction position for a moving body used by a user acquires utterance information regarding the instruction position including a visual mark from a communication device used by the user. The information processing apparatus acquires a captured image captured by the moving body and determines an object region in the captured image corresponding to the visual mark included in the utterance information. The information apparatus estimates the instruction position based on the object region.
