MAP DATA CREATION DEVICE, AUTONOMOUS MOVEMENT SYSTEM AND AUTONOMOUS MOVEMENT CONTROL DEVICE
First Claim
1. A map data creation device comprising creating map data, the map data being used for autonomous movement by a first autonomous movement apparatus, a second autonomous movement apparatus and/or other autonomous movement apparatuses, based on position data of the second autonomous movement apparatus which exists around the first autonomous movement apparatus, the position being measured by the first autonomous movement apparatus, and object shape data of an object which exists around the second autonomous movement apparatus, the object shape being measured by the second autonomous movement apparatus.

Abstract
The invention is intended to be able to generate map data even if a location not suited for identification of a matching position exists. A map data creation device creates map data, the map data being used for autonomous movement by a vehicle (1a), a vehicle (1b) and/or other vehicles (1), based on a relative position of the vehicle (1b) which exists around the vehicle (1a), relative to the vehicle (1a), the relative position being measured by the vehicle (1a), and object shape data of an object which exists around the vehicle (1b), the object shape being measured by the vehicle (1b). Moreover, the relative position of the vehicle (1b) relative to the vehicle (1a) is calculated based on the object shape data measured by the vehicle (1a).

10. An autonomous movement system comprising:
-
a first autonomous movement apparatus including a self-position measurement unit that measures a position of the self, an other-position measurement unit that measures an other-position which is a position of an other autonomous movement apparatus that exists around the self, based on the position of the self, and a transmitting unit that transmits a measured other-position as position data to the other autonomous movement apparatus, and a second autonomous movement apparatus which is the other autonomous movement apparatus, including a peripheral object shape measurement unit that measures a shape of an object around the self as object shape data, and a receiving unit that receives the position data which is a transmitted other-position; and a map data creation device that creates map data, the map data being used for autonomous movement by a first autonomous movement apparatus, a second autonomous movement apparatus and/or other autonomous movement apparatuses, based on position data of the second autonomous movement apparatus which exists around the first autonomous movement apparatus, the position being measured by the first autonomous movement apparatus, and object shape data of an object which exists around the second autonomous movement apparatus, the object shape being measured by the second autonomous movement apparatus. - View Dependent Claims (11)
