To provide a mobile body with enhanced safety by suppressing a risk due to information overload.SOLUTION: A monitoring support system includes a mobile body and a monitoring apparatus which monitors a space in which the mobile body exists, using the mobile body. The mobile body includes: an imaging apparatus which images the surrounding of the mobile body to output imaging information indicating a captured image; a recognition unit which recognizes one or more objects existing around the mobile body on the basis of the imaging information, and outputs recognition information indicating a recognition result for each object; a calculation unit which calculates, for each object, location information including a direction from the mobile body, on the basis of the recognition information; and a transmission control unit which transmits the imaging information and the location information to the monitoring apparatus using a transmission apparatus. The monitoring apparatus includes a display control unit which causes a display device to display an object in the captured image in association with a direction of the object, on the basis of the imaging information and the location information.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】情報過多に伴う危険性を抑制することで、安全性を向上させた移動体を提供する。【解決手段】監視支援システムは、移動体と、移動体を用いて移動体が存在する空間の監視をする監視装置とを備える。移動体は、移動体の周囲を撮像することで撮像画像を示す撮像情報を出力する撮像装置と、撮像情報に基づいて移動体の周囲に存在する１以上の物体を認識し、物体ごとに認識結果を示す認識情報を出力する認識部と、認識情報に基づいて、物体ごとに、移動体からの方位を含む位置情報を算出する算出部と、送信装置を用いて、撮像情報と位置情報とを、監視装置に送信する送信制御部とを備える。監視装置は、撮像情報及び位置情報に基づいて、撮像画像中の物体と、物体の方位とを対応付けて、表示装置に表示させる表示制御部を備える。【選択図】図２
