Abstract
Mobile devices, control systems and programs are disclosed. In one example, a mobile device performs different processing when an approaching object is a human. The mobile device includes a control unit that performs traveling control. It receives input detection information of a sensor on the mobile device and uses that to determine whether an approaching object is a human. In the case where the control unit determines that the object is a human, the mobile device stops after setting an article mounted in the mobile device in a direction of being visible to the human. In the case where the control unit determines that the object is not a human, the control unit stops or backs the mobile device or changes a traveling direction of the mobile device so as to avoid collision with the object.
