Abstract: A transport system includes: a reception processor that receives a transport request to transport a first picking object corresponding to a first automatic transport device; and a determination processor that determines a destination of the first automatic transport device based on the number of automatic transport devices present in a first picking area that includes a first picking location for the first picking object and space availability at one or more picking locations in the first picking area.

Abstract: A multilayer body has a structure including insulating layers stacked on each other in an up-down direction. A first conductive layer is on a top main surface of one of the insulating layers. A first signal is transmitted through the first conductive layer. A second conductive layer is on a same insulating layer that the first conductive layer is on. The second conductive layer is on a same main surface as the top main surface or the bottom main surface of the insulating layer on which the first conductive layer is located. A second signal having a higher frequency than the first signal is transmitted through the second conductive layer. A top conductive layer is above the second conductive layer. A thickness of the second conductive layer in the up-down direction is smaller than that of the first conductive layer in the up-down direction.

Abstract: A conveyance system according to this disclosure includes a movement request acceptor which accepts a movement request to an automatic conveying device; and a section travel-route setter which sets a section travel route with a predetermined length constituting a part of a travel route from a current position of a first automatic conveying device to a destination position so that the section travel route of the first automatic conveying device does not overlap the section travel route set for another second automatic conveying device on the basis of the movement request accepted by the movement request acceptor, in which the section travel-route setter repeatedly executes processing of setting a second section travel route with an end position of a first section travel route as a start position of the subsequent second section travel route while the automatic conveying device is traveling on the first section travel route.

Abstract: A conveyance system according to the present disclosure includes a conveyance request receiver that receives the conveyance requests of the conveyance targets, a starting area selector that selects a starting area from among the partial areas, a partial area traveling order setter that sets the starting area to one of the partial areas to be traveled first and sets partial area traveling order for traveling of an automatic conveyance apparatus, and a storage position traveling order setter that sets storage position traveling order of the automatic conveyance apparatus inside each of the partial areas. The automatic conveyance apparatus travels the partial areas in accordance with the partial area traveling order and travels the storage positions in accordance with the storage position traveling order inside each of the partial areas so as to convey the conveyance targets corresponding to the received conveyance requests inside the entire area.

Abstract: A conveyance system according to the present disclosure includes a conveyance request receiver that receives conveyance requests of the conveyance targets, a combination pattern generator that combines the conveyance requests so as to generate conveyance request combination patterns of different combinations, an appropriateness evaluator that performs appropriateness evaluation on the individual conveyance request combination patterns, a combination pattern selector that selects one of the conveyance request combination patterns based on a result of the evaluation, and a conveyance instructor that outputs a conveyance instruction to the automatic conveyance apparatus based on the selected conveyance request combination pattern.
