Abstract

A moving body includes a first position detector configured to detect a position of the moving body by detecting poles of magnets and a second position detector disposed in a different position from a position of the first position detector in a moving direction of the moving body, and configured to detect the position of the moving body. A controller of the moving body determines the position of the moving body on a basis of a position detected by the second position detector when the first position detector is located in an irregular section in which the poles of the magnets are not disposed regularly.
