Abstract

An item inspection system includes a portable system that reads information from a wireless device, a position estimation unit that estimates a position of the portable system based on reading of identification information from a first wireless device installed at a known position, and an inspection unit that inspects whether the item exists in a specific place based on reading of identification information from a second wireless device attached to an item. The portable system selectively operates in a first mode for position estimation and a second mode for the inspection. The inspection unit guides a user based on a position of the item and an estimated position of the portable system, and determines that the item exists in the specific place when the identification information has been read from the second wireless device in the second mode.
