Control device, and control system
First Claim
1. A control device for use in a system configured to conduct presence-or-absence determination on whether or not a moving object is present on the basis of detection by a first sensor provided in a predetermined compartment region, the control device comprising:
- a mode control section configured to control switching of an operation mode for the detection by the first sensor or the presence-or-absence determination; and
an acquisition section configured to acquire a determination result of whether or not a moving object is present in an adjacent region adjacent to the predetermined compartment region and not including the predetermined compartment region,wherein the mode control section switches the operation mode to a first operation mode when a determination result indicating that a moving object is not present in the adjacent region is acquired by the acquisition section, and switches the operation mode to a second operation mode when a determination result indicating that a moving object is present in the adjacent region is acquired, andwherein switching the operation mode to the second operation mode includes changing a detection range of the first sensor such that a likelihood of detecting a presence of a moving object in the predetermined compartment region by the first sensor is reduced, andthe acquisition section determines whether or not a moving object is present in the adjacent region on the basis of a detection result by a second sensor of which an area of detection includes the adjacent region.

Abstract
To improve the accuracy of the determination on whether or not a moving object is present in a predetermined region, a control device for use in a system configured to conduct presence-or-absence determination on whether or not a moving object is present on the basis of detection by a first sensor provided in a predetermined compartment region, the control device comprising: a mode control section configured to control switching of an operation mode for the detection by the first sensor or the presence-or-absence determination; and an acquisition section configured to acquire a determination result of whether or not a moving object is present in an adjacent region adjacent to the predetermined compartment region and not including the predetermined compartment region; wherein the mode control section controls the switching of the operation mode in response to the determination result acquired by the acquisition section, is provided.

16. A control system configured to conduct presence-or-absence determination on whether or not a moving object is present on the basis of detection by a first sensor provided in a predetermined compartment region, the control system comprising:
-
the first sensor; a second sensor of which a scope of detection includes an adjacent region adjacent to the predetermined compartment region and not including the predetermined compartment region; and a control device including a mode control section configured to control switching of an operation mode for the detection by the first sensor or the presence-or-absence determination, and an acquisition section configured to acquire a determination result of whether or not a moving object is present in the adjacent region on the basis of communication with the second sensor, wherein the mode control section switches the operation mode to a first operation mode when a determination result indicating that a moving object is not present in the adjacent region is acquired by the acquisition section, and switches the operation mode to a second operation mode when a determination result indicating that a moving object is present in the adjacent region is acquired, and wherein switching the operation mode to the second operation mode includes changing a detection range of the first sensor such that a likelihood of detecting a presence of a moving object in the predetermined compartment region by the first sensor is reduced.

17. A control device for use in a system configured to conduct presence-or-absence determination on whether or not a moving object is present on the basis of detection by a first sensor provided in a predetermined compartment region, the control device comprising:
-
a mode control section configured to control switching of an operation mode for the detection by the first sensor or the presence-or-absence determination; and an acquisition section configured to acquire a determination result of whether or not a moving object is present in an adjacent region adjacent to the predetermined compartment region and not including the predetermined compartment region, wherein the mode control section switches the operation mode to a first operation mode when a determination result indicating that a moving object is not present in the adjacent region is acquired by the acquisition section, and switches the operation mode to a second operation mode when a determination result indicating that a moving object is present in the adjacent region is acquired, and wherein switching the operation mode to the second operation mode includes changing a detection range of the first sensor such that a likelihood of detecting a presence of a moving object in the predetermined compartment region by the first sensor is reduced, the acquisition section is configured to acquire the determination that a moving object is present in the adjacent region based on determining that a human being is scheduled to be in the adjacent region according to a preset patrol schedule.
