Abstract
According to an embodiment, there is provided a handling system capable of handling a plurality of objects, the handling system including: a movable arm, a holder, a sensor, and a controller. The holder is attached to the movable arm and is capable of holding the object. The sensor is capable of detecting the object. The controller controls the movable arm and the holder. The controller determines whether or not to change an arrangement of the object before the object is held, on the basis of information acquired from the sensor. In a case where it is determined to change the arrangement of the object, the controller evaluates effectiveness of an arrangement change operation for each object, and decides on an arrangement change operation on the basis of an evaluation result.
