Abstract
A control device that controls a robot capable of self-propelling is provided. The control device comprises: a facility staff member identifying unit configured to identify a position of a facility staff member in a facility; a visitor identifying unit configured to identify a position of a visitor in the facility; and a control unit configured to instruct the robot capable of self-propelling to move. In a case where the control unit determines that the facility staff member that has been identified by the facility staff member identifying unit is absent in a predetermined range near the visitor that has been identified by the visitor identifying unit, the control unit causes the robot to move into the predetermined range.
