The present invention aims to provide a robot having the structure
suitable for freely moving about in the environment where there is an
obstacle within the house, for example. The robot includes a
communication section transmitting by wireless an image taken by the
camera to a base station, and via the base station to a communication
terminal making the radio communication with the base station, and
receiving by wireless the movement target position information specified
on the image by an operation of the communication terminal via the base
station, and a motion control section that moves the robot up to a
movement target position specified by the movement target position
information acquired in the communication section.
