1. An item management system, comprising:
- an IC tag;
a plurality of IC readers operable to electronically detect the IC tag; and
a monitor and control unit configured to detect successive positions of the IC tag by use of the plurality of IC readers in response to movement of the IC tag, to make a determination as to whether a travel route indicated by the detected successive positions is a normal route, and to activate alarm when the determination indicates an abnormal route.
