ABSTRACT:
The content of the voice designation of a designator is recognized by a voice recognition part130at the time of controlling a robot, and the content of the indication of gesture or the like is recognized by an image recognition part120. A movement destination and a map around the specific position designated are referred from a map data base150registering the position of an obstacle and the current position estimated by a self-position estimation part140. After movement ease is decided by a movement ease decision part112, the behavior is decided. When movement designation is given to the robot, correspondence according to a situation can be performed.
