1. A safety monitoring device comprising:
an area setter that sets a plurality of alarm activation target areas with respect to a sensing target area of a safety sensor;
an alarm activation type setter that
provides a user interface which presents a plurality of types of alarm activation functions, the plurality of types of alarm activation functions including any two or more of:
a function of issuing a warning to all moving bodies;
a function of issuing a warning only to a person;
a function of issuing a warning in a case where a distance between a person and a large object larger than the person is within a certain distance;
a function of issuing a warning in a case where a person enters a traveling direction of the large object;
an alarm activation function of issuing a warning only to a moving body at a certain speed or higher;
an alarm activation function of issuing a warning only to a moving body at a certain speed or lower;
a function of combining two or more arbitrary functions to obtain a logical sum; and
a function of combining two or more arbitrary functions to obtain a logical product, as the type of the alarm activation function;
receives, via the user interface, designation indicating one of the plurality of types of alarm activation functions, and
sets the one of the plurality of types of alarm activation functions with respect to each of the alarm activation target areas; and
a moving body recognition analyzer that recognizes a motion of a moving body on the basis of sensor data measured by the safety sensor.
