Abstract
An obstacle monitoring system includes: a sensing means; a first obstacle detection means; and a control means for selectively executing a plurality of control modes including a first control mode in which a moving speed of a moving body is a first moving speed and a sensing field of view of the sensing means is a first field of view, and a second control mode in which a moving speed of the moving body is a second moving speed and a sensing field of view of the sensing means is a second field of view. When the first obstacle detection means detects the obstacle while the control means is executing the first control mode, the control means executes the second control mode in such a way as to capture the obstacle within the second field of view.
