Abstract

An automated operation controller 45 of an automated work system 10 includes: a work status management section 452 that selects a work content according to a work DB 456 that records a work plan for a hydraulic excavator 1 and a work order in the work plan, creates an operation plan based on the selected work content and information on the surrounding environment measured by laser scanners 34, and outputs a control signal to a vehicle body controller 41 based on the operation plan; and an abnormal object detection section 454 that detects an abnormal object present on a work site based on the information on the surrounding environment measured by the laser scanners 34. When the execution of the operation plan is determined to be hindered by the presence of the abnormal object, the work status management section 452 selects another work content from the work plan.
