AUTONOMOUS RUNNING DEVICE, RUNNING CONTROL METHOD FOR AUTONOMOUS RUNNING DEVICE, AND RUNNING CONTROL PROGRAM OF AUTONOMOUS RUNNING DEVICE

摘要

Provided are an autonomous running device, a running control method for the autonomous running device, and a running control program of the autonomous running device that allow the autonomous running device to reach a destination while continuing estimation of its self-position. An autonomous running device includes a first position estimation unit that estimates the position of the autonomous running device on the basis of information about surroundings of the autonomous running device, produces information about the estimated position of the autonomous running device as first positional information, and updates the first positional information, a second position estimation unit that estimates the position of the autonomous running device on the basis of rotation amounts of wheels, produces information about the estimated position of the autonomous running device as second positional information, and updates the second positional information, and a control unit.
