Abstract

The invention discloses a cleaning robot system and a virtual wall detection method, and belongs to the field of cleaning machines. The cleaning robot system comprises a cleaning robot and a virtual wall assembly. The cleaning robot comprises at least one metal electrode, a capacitive sensor and a control chip. The metal electrode is arranged on a bottom plate of the cleaning robot. The metal electrode and the capacitive sensor are electrically connected. The capacitive sensor and the control chip are electrically connected. The virtual wall assembly is a belt-shaped object containing metal. The virtual wall assembly is used for being attaching to the plane where the cleaning robot advances. The problems that a virtual wall achieved in an infrared mode consumes energy and is high in cost are solved; the functions of the virtual wall are achieved through the belt-shaped object containing metal, and the effects of eliminating energy consumption of the virtual wall assembly and reducing the cost of the virtual wall ssembly are achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The disclosure relates to the field of cleaning machines, in particular to a cleaning robot system and a virtual wall detection method. Background technique [0002] Cleaning robots such as sweeping robots and mopping robots are an important part of smart homes. [0003] When the cleaning robot is working, the working space of the cleaning robot can be restricted by setting a virtual wall on the plane where the cleaning robot travels. At present, common virtual walls are realized by means of infrared. For example, a virtual wall component is set on the plane where the cleaning robot travels, and the virtual wall component can emit infrared rays to form a virtual wall. After the cleaning robot detects the infrared rays emitted by the virtual wall assembly during the traveling process, it can determine the position of the virtual wall formed by the virtual wall assembly, and then control its own traveling path according to the position of the virtual w...
