AUTONOMOUS WORK MACHINE, AUTONOMOUS WORK SYSTEM, METHOD OF CONTROLLING AUTONOMOUS WORK MACHINE, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Abstract:

An autonomous work machine that works in a work area while autonomously traveling in the work area, comprises a plurality of magnetic detection sensors each configured to detect a magnetic field during energization of a station wire which is configured to guide the autonomous work machine to a charging station for power supply, and a specification unit configured to specify, when the autonomous work machine is to move from a charging position of the charging station to the work area or when the autonomous work machine is to move from the work area to the charging position, an angle of the autonomous work machine with respect to the charging station based on a comparison of detection results of the magnetic detection sensors.
