WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/094350
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
[Problem] To provide a position detection system capable of accurately detecting the position of a moving body, even when the moving body moves inside a warehouse. [Solution] A position detection system 100 comprises: a plurality of fixed stations 20; and a sensor unit 10 which has an inertia sensor that detects the movement history of a moving body 51 and a range sensor that detects a separation distance between the moving body 51 and the fixed stations 20. The position detection system 100: detects a first arrival position P1 obtained on the basis of the movement history, a second arrival position P2 obtained on the basis of the separation distance, and a relative distance L1 between the first arrival position P1 and the second arrival position P2; and determines the position of the moving body 51 by comparing the relative distance L1 and a range value R1 obtained on the basis of the movement history. The size of the range value R1 varies on the basis of the movement history.
