Abstract: An object detection device includes: a measurement unit configured to transmit a radio wave to measure, based on a reflected wave acquired from an object to be detected existing in a periphery of the moving body, a position and a doppler speed of the object as a reflection point; a grouping processing unit configured to execute grouping processing when a plurality of reflection points are acquired, and are determined to be acquired from the same object; a moving speed calculation unit configured to use the doppler speeds and the positions of the plurality of reflection points acquired from the same object, to thereby calculate a moving direction and a moving speed of the same object; and an output unit configured to output the calculated moving direction and moving speed as information on a position and a speed corresponding to detection results of the same object.

Abstract: In a self-position estimation method, an actual self-position of a mobile object 1 is specified from self-positions each estimated by using a plurality of algorithms. The plurality of algorithms includes an MCL algorithm (11) and an algorithm (12) different from the MCL algorithm. In a case where reliability of an estimated value of the self-position obtained by using the MCL algorithm is low, the estimated value of the self-position obtained by using the MCL algorithm is corrected using an estimated value of the specified self-position or an estimated value of the self-position obtained by using the algorithm (12).

Abstract: The closed-type aquarium of the present invention includes a light transmissive container in which a vapor phase of air and a liquid phase of water are sealed. The liquid phase includes a shrimp, an aquatic plant and a microorganism. Further, to enhance efficiency of material recycling, the liquid phase includes a snail that has a different ecological niche than that of the shrimp and a plant dead body that supplements a resource essential for photosynthesis of the aquatic plant.
