Abstract
A control method for a moving body and facilities is comprised of steps of measuring and recognizing at least one of the states such as the number of a moving body, moving speed and moving direction, and changing the state of facilities which is a goal of the moving body based on the result of the measurement/recognition, or displaying the state of the facility. A control apparatus for a moving body and facilities is comprised of a measuring unit for measuring at least one of the states such as the number of a moving body, moving speed, and moving direction, a memory unit for storing information on the condition of a local area in which the moving body is moving or on the facilities said moving body is heading for; an arithmetic unit for processing information from the measurement unit and memory unit; and an input/output unit for accessing information processed by the arithmetic unit, and displaying the information.
