Abstract: An article transport facility includes transport vehicles, a travel route which the travel vehicles travel, and a region control device. The travel route includes branching and merging region that includes a branching point and a merging point. If a transport vehicle is scheduled to pass through a branching point and then pass through a merging point while passing through a branching and merging region, a region control device gives the transport vehicle occupation permission for a first target point on a scheduled travel route and occupation permission for a second target point on a non-scheduled travel route, the first target point and the second target point being whichever one of an occupation target point and a secondary occupation target point is closest to the branching point.

Abstract: An authentication device to be mounted on a vehicle includes a processor. The processor is configured to execute first authentication based on biometric information acquired from a user and biometric information preregistered in the vehicle. The processor is configured to execute second authentication different from the first authentication. The processor is configured to transit setting of the first authentication to a state in which the user is able to change the setting, when the second authentication is successful.

Abstract: An article transport facility includes a transport vehicle. The transport vehicle is configured to switch an access point of a connection destination while moving along a path to maintain a communicable state with a control device. In a case in which a communication intensity of radio waves between the transport vehicle and the access point is lower than a predetermined switching threshold value, the transport vehicle performs switching processing of switching the connection destination to another access point having a stronger communication intensity. The switching threshold value is set to different values in accordance with a movement condition of the transport vehicle.
