Abstract:

An autonomous work machine that works in a work area while autonomously traveling in the work area, comprises a specification unit configured to specify, based on information of a position detection unit configured to detect position information, a self-position of the autonomous work machine, a determination unit configured to determine, based on the self-position, whether the autonomous work machine has reached a perimeter portion of a no-work area positioned within the work area, and a control unit configured to control the autonomous work machine to do a lap along the perimeter portion in a case in which the autonomous work machine is determined to have reached the perimeter portion.
