Abstract
This autonomous traveling system is provided with a path preparation unit, a forward movement control unit, a backward movement control unit, and a turn control unit. The path preparation unit prepares a plurality of straight line paths. The forward movement control unit causes a machine to execute work and simultaneously causes the machine to travel along a straight line path by at least autonomous steering. After an operator has stopped the machine traveling toward an edge of a field, the backward movement control unit causes the machine to travel backward autonomously or operationally by the operator, without executing any work. After the machine moving backward has stopped, and an instruction for forward movement has been provided by the operator, the turn control unit causes the machine to turn toward a predetermined straight line path by performing at least autonomous steering without executing any work.
