Abstract
An environment arrangement robot includes a map creation unit that divides the target space into a plurality of cell spaces and provides an evaluation value to each of the cell spaces, in which the evaluation value indicates a probability of whether or not there is an object in the corresponding cell space, and an environment change unit that changes, among the plurality of cell spaces, a specific cell space having the evaluation value within a range evaluated that the probability of whether or not there is an object in the specific cell is low in such a way that the probability that the object is present will become greater or change a surrounding cell space in such a way that the specific cell space will be excluded from the measurement by the distance sensor.
