<p>A control method which is preferable for a mobile robot system having a control station and a plurality of mobile robots. When mobile robots having no task exist in the system and tasks not completed are remaining, the control station instructs the mobile robots to evaluate the remaining tasks. The mobile robots having no task then evaluate the remaining tasks and report the evaluation values to the control station. The control station sequentially selects the combination of one of the mobile robots, having no task and one of the remaining tasks which are not assigned to the mobile robots so that the combination presenting the best evaluation value is selected, and assigns the task of the selected combination to the mobile robot of the selected combination. <IMAGE></p> |
