The control system is a control system that controls a connection between an autonomous mobile robot and a base station, the control system including: a radio communication unit that communicates with the base station; and a connection control unit that performs control, in a connection of communication performed by the radio communication unit, when a radio wave shielding object which the autonomous mobile robot is able to pass through is on a path along which the autonomous mobile robot is to move, so that the autonomous mobile robot is prompted to connect to a predetermined base station of which a received radio wave intensity at a position on the path in front of the shielding object is affected by the shielding object.

Control system, control method, and program

A posture angle calculation apparatusincludes an acquisition unitconfigured to acquire an output of an acceleration sensorinstalled to output acceleration of a moving apparatus that moves along a moving surface in a vertical axis direction with respect to the moving surface and to acquire an output of a gyro sensorinstalled to output an angular velocity about the vertical axis. The posture angle calculation apparatusfurther includes a calculation unitconfigured to assume, when the acceleration is larger than reference acceleration Rg, and the angular velocity is smaller than a preset reference angular velocity Rw, the angular velocity &#x3c9;is zero and calculate a posture angle of the moving apparatus about the vertical axis. The posture angle calculation apparatusfurther includes an output unitconfigured to output data of the calculated posture angle.
