A robot that is capable of traveling while moving an object such that the object and the robot itself will not step out of a predetermined area is provided. If a traveling requirement that the robot and the object remain within a pathway area is not met, then an action scheme of the robot is corrected so as to meet the traveling requirement. Then, the robot travels while moving the object according to the corrected action scheme, thus enabling the robot to travel while moving the object such that both the object and the robot do not step out of the pathway area.
