The invention is suitable for the technical field of
robot control, and particularly relates to an
underwater robot control method and related equipment, and the method comprises the steps: obtaining depth data and
pressure data of an
underwater robot; determining a current task environment of the
underwater robot based on the depth data and the
pressure data; according to the current task environment, a target advancing mode of the
underwater robot is judged; and if the target advancing mode is different from the current advancing mode of the
underwater robot, switching the current advancing mode of the
underwater robot into the target advancing mode. The current task environment of the underwater robot is analyzed according to the depth data and the
pressure data in the environment where the water robot is located, the underwater robot is controlled to be switched to the advancing mode adaptive to the current task environment, and it is guaranteed that the underwater robot achieves autonomous switching of the advancing
modes based on environment conversion in the underwater environment and the land environment. The method is not limited by the environment any more, changing tasks and environments can be dealt with more flexibly, and the autonomous
operability is higher.
