A remote operation device and a remote operation system that can reduce or eliminate deviation of the position of an indicator image of a working unit such as a line image in an image with respect to the position of the working unit in a real space. In some case, because of a cause such as a communication failure, a position posture coordinate value of a working unit corresponding to captured image data in a work environment image deviates from a position posture coordinate value of the working unit estimated according to an operation form of a remote operation mechanism. In this case, a semitransparent indicator image Img2(τ2) simulating a bucket is superimposed on a work environment image Img1(τ2) in a position where the bucket is estimated to be originally present and deviating from an image region representing the bucket.

A controller acquires a static path indicative of a target route of a transport vehicle. The static path includes a first endpoint and a second endpoint. The static path is set between a first work machine and a second work machine. The controller determines a first dynamic path that connects the first endpoint and a first target position for work of the first work machine.

A hydraulic excavator includes a computer-aided construction controller for performing machine control to operate a front work implement based on detected results from posture sensors and predetermined conditions. The computer-aided construction controller has a calibration posture storing section that stores at least one predetermined calibration posture of the front work implement for calibrating the posture sensors, and a calibration posture controlling section that carries out the machine control to inactivate the hydraulic actuators if detection target values of the posture sensors in the calibration posture and the detected results from the posture sensors are equal to each other. The time required for calibration can thus be shortened by increasing the operability for adjusting a calibration posture.
