Abstract: A control method by a computer, the control method acquires work information including information on work performed by a robot arm and information on an article as a target of the work; causes the robot arm to perform an operation of lifting up a predetermined unit of articles based on the work information; determines that there is a possibility that a plurality of articles are packaged together based on sensor data obtained when the operation is being performed; and when it is determined that there is a possibility that a plurality of articles are packaged together, settles a handling method for the article according to the sensor data.

Abstract: A control method includes: acquiring article information including a price of an article to be handled by a robot arm; deciding, based on the article information, a handling method of the article to be handled by the robot arm as a handling method in which as the price of the article is higher, damage prevention of the article is more prioritized; and controlling the robot arm that handles the article based on the handling method.

Abstract: To make it possible to change the action of an unmanned vehicle by reflecting the importance of purposes that can change in response to a change in the situation. An unmanned vehicle (11) acts according to a plurality of purposes. A purpose importance input means (12) inputs the importance of each purpose in the unmanned vehicle (11). An action parameter determining means (13) determines a parameter for controlling the action of the unmanned vehicle (11) based on purpose importance information indicating the input importance of each purpose. An action controlling means (14) controls the action of the unmanned vehicle (11) in accordance with the parameter determined by the action parameter determining means (13).
