Abstract
A traveling system for mobile bodies includes a control device for controlling traveling operation of a first and a second mobile bodies based on detection information provided by a relative distance detecting device mounted on only one of the first and second mobile bodies for detecting a distance to the other of the first and second mobile bodies, a first distance detecting device for detecting a distance between the first mobile body and a first reference position, and a second distance detecting device for detecting a distance between the second mobile body and a second reference position. The control device determines, based on distance information between the first reference position and second reference position, whether the detection information provided by each of the first and second distance detecting devices and detection information provided by the relative distance detecting device satisfy a proper determination condition, and stops movement of the first and second mobile bodies when it is determined that the proper determination condition is not satisfied.
