Abstract
There is provided a method of identifying a plurality of moving bodies that are present nearby, wherein each moving bodies includes means for transmitting, as advance information, a movement state including an operation instruction received by the moving body, together with identification information of the moving body and means for monitoring the behavior of other moving bodies, the method including: a step of causing at least one of the plurality of moving bodies to carry out, as a target moving body, a reveal operation that enables the behavior of a target moving body to be differentiated from other moving bodies; and a step of detecting the reveal operation by the means for monitoring of the other moving bodies and identifying the plurality of moving bodies by grasping positions relative to the target moving body. By using this method of identifying, it is possible to precisely identify vehicles moving in the periphery and to control vehicles safely while predicting the behavior of other vehicles.
