Abstract:
A management system manages travel of at least one vehicle, and includes a vehicle and a travel management apparatus. The vehicle includes motors, a drive unit to move the vehicle by controlling the motors, a first communication circuit, and a control circuit. The travel management apparatus includes a signal processing circuit to generate an nth command for causing the vehicle to move from an n (n: a positive integer)th location to an (n+1)th location and a second communication circuit. When the vehicle arrives in a region defined for the (n+1)th location while moving from the nth location toward the (n+1)th location, the vehicle transmits a notification of arrival-in-region to the travel management apparatus. Upon receiving the notification of arrival-in-region, the travel management apparatus generates an (n+1)th command for causing the vehicle to move from the (n+1)th location to an (n+2)th location, and transmits it to the vehicle.
