Abstract

Two detected objects are arranged at each of multiple traveling objects. A driving apparatus for traveling objects determines which detected object corresponds to which traveling object on the basis of position information on detected objects of multiple traveling objects. In this determination, the driving apparatus for traveling objects supplies a travel start instruction to each of the multiple traveling objects sequentially during a determination period for the determination, and identifies that two detected objects of which the position information has changed after supplying the travel start instruction corresponds to the traveling object that has moved in response to the travel start instruction.
