1. An obstacle detection device, adapted for detecting abnormalities of an autonomous mobile system, comprising:

  • a conducting wire;

    a first unit, comprising a first conducting part electrically connected to an end of the conducting wire; and

    a second unit, further comprising a second conducting part electrically connected to another end of the conducting wire other than that connecting to the first conducting part;

    wherein, as an abnormality, such as the autonomous mobile system comes into contact with an obstacle, or misses a step, is happening and detected by the obstacle detection device, a reactive force will be generated to force the two conducting parts to contact with each other so as to enable an electrical conduction for issuing an electrical signal to the control unit of the autonomous mobile system and thus enabling the autonomous mobile system to react with respect to the abnormality.
