1. An information output system comprising:
a Power over Ethernet camera configured to acquire an image comprising a moving image of a work space including a mobile object comprising an automatic guide vehicle, a plurality of components, and at least one worker;
a processor configured to determine a component to be mounted to the mobile object based on at least one of first mobile object information indicating the mobile object in the acquired image, second mobile object information indicating a time when the mobile object appears in the work space, and third mobile object information indicating a position in which the mobile object is located before the mobile object appears in the work space; and
a projector configured to project a first projection image including at least one of a first reference projection image indicating the component determined to be mounted to the mobile object, a second reference projection image indicating which of a plurality of mobile objects appearing in the work space the component should be mounted to, and a third reference projection image indicating a housing position of the mobile object, wherein
the processor is configured to generate a layout in which a position of the component in the work space is changed based on an analysis of a flow line along which the worker moves in the work space,
the projector is configured to project a second projection image indicating the changed position of the component in the layout,
the processor is configured to determine an order according to which the plurality of components are mounted to the mobile object,
the projector is configured to project a third projection image indicating the order according to which the plurality of components are mounted to the mobile object,
the processor is configured to instruct the automatic guide vehicle to autonomously travel within the work space based on transmitting a control signal to the automatic guide vehicle, and the automatic guide vehicle is configured to autonomously travel within the work space in accordance with the instruction and in response to the control signal from the processor, and
the processor is configured to determine whether the plurality of components are to be mounted to the mobile object by matching the mobile object in the acquired image that is autonomously traveling within the work space with a stored mobile object image in a storage.
