Abstract: A mobile apparatus includes a position detection device, and an autonomous mobile body. The position detection device includes input means for inputting route data, a distance sensor, map data, position identification means, and relative route calculation means for calculating a relative position and a relative angle to a position of the target point from the position data and the route data of the mobile body. The autonomous mobile body includes a controller that controls an autonomous travel of the autonomous mobile body itself by using the relative position and the relative angle received from the position detection device as control signals.

Abstract: Position identification means (7) for estimating the position of a mobile robot (1) includes a laser distance sensor (6) that measures a distance from the mobile robot (1) to an object, means for recognizing an object from data of the measured distance from the mobile robot (1) to the object and map data, travel area storage means (12) for storing a travel area of the mobile robot (1), specified area storage means (13) for storing a specified area that is separate from the travel area of the mobile robot (1), and object determination means (14) for determining whether an object is present within the travel area of the mobile robot (1) that is stored in the travel area storage means (12).

Abstract: A position detection device includes position identification means (5) for identifying a position and an angle of a mobile body, using a distance sensor (3) and a map (2), and relative position calculation means (7) for calculating a relative position and a relative angle of the mobile body relative to a target position and a target angle of the mobile body, that are set by input means (6), and outputs an identification result of the position identification means (5) and a calculation result of the relative position calculation means (7) is configured to be attached to the mobile body (100).

Abstract: A personality testing apparatus which tests the personality of a subject has a display means (1) which displays question items (10) of MMPI (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory) to the subject, an input means (2) for inputting answers of the subject to the question items (10), a storage means (31) which stores test data obtained from the answers of the subject, a data processing means (3) which reads the test data, calculates the test data according to each criterion and generates a result table (20) obtained by aggregating the calculation result. The apparatus enables the subject to easily answer to MMPI, and makes it possible to accurately and speedily score and aggregate the test data.
