Abstract: According to the present invention, a moving body capable of moving within a preset range of movement acquires an image from the environment surrounding the location of the moving body, and determines entry determination conditions for obtaining a result of an entry determination as to whether or not the moving body is allowed to enter a region identified by the location of the moving body and the image. A management terminal outputs the entry determination conditions and the image to an output device, and receives modification information relating to the entry determination conditions from an input device. A server uses the modification information received by the input device of the management terminal to perform learning, including updating of the entry determination conditions, thereby setting the movement range of the moving body, the movement of which is controlled in accordance with the entry determination result.

Abstract: In an air conditioner, during an operation, a gas-liquid two-phase non-azeotropic mixture refrigerant enters a receiver and accumulates in the receiver in a state where a gas phase and a liquid phase are separated. For example, when the non-azeotropic mixture refrigerant includes two components, i.e., a high-boiling refrigerant and a low-boiling refrigerant, the controller may estimate the ratio (composition ratio) between the low-boiling refrigerant and the high-boiling refrigerant in each of the gas phase and the liquid phase based on the temperature and the pressure of the non-azeotropic mixture refrigerant in the receiver. Thus, the controller may estimate the composition ratio of the liquid-phase non-azeotropic mixture refrigerant flowing out of the receiver as the composition ratio of the non-azeotropic mixture refrigerant circulating in the refrigerant circuit.
