A vacuum cleaner includes a main casing, a driving wheel, a camera, an obstacle detection part, a lamp, and a control unit. The driving wheel allows the main casing to travel. The camera is disposed on the main casing to capture an image in a traveling direction side of the main casing. The obstacle detection part performs detection of an obstacle on a basis of the image captured by the camera. The lamp assists the detection performed by the obstacle detection part. The control unit makes the main casing travel autonomously, by controlling driving of the driving wheel on a basis of the detection of the obstacle performed by the obstacle detection part. The vacuum cleaner can secure accuracy in obstacle detection.
