Abstract
An automatic travel system for a work vehicle has an automatic travel control unit that causes a work vehicle, which is provided with an obstacle detection unit that detects obstacles, to travel automatically. The obstacle detection unit includes imaging units and active sensors. When the obstacle detection unit detects an obstacle based on information from the imaging units, and the separation distance from the obstacle is acquired based on information from the active sensors, the automatic travel control unit executes a first collision avoidance control for avoiding a collision between the work vehicle and the obstacle, on the basis of the separation distance from the obstacle acquired based on the information from the active sensors.
