Problems solved by technology

[0005] In order to solve the problem that the cleaning robot will step into the virtual wall when the magnetic threshold is set to a large value, and requires user intervention when the magnetic threshold is set to a small value, it is difficult to fully automatically complete the cleaning of complex environments. The present disclosure provides a robot and a robot control method.

Abstract

The invention discloses a robot and a robot control method, and belongs to the field of smart homes. The robot comprises a control unit. According to the configuration of the control unit, a virtual wall is recognized according to a signal threshold value and a virtual wall signal detected through a detection assembly; when the virtual wall is recognized, the signal threshold value is adjusted; and the robot is controlled to advance along the outer side of the virtual wall according to the adjusted signal threshold value and the virtual wall signal, and drive wheels of the robot are located on the outer side of the virtual wall. The problems that when only one large signal threshold value is set, the drive wheels of the robot step into the virtual wall, or when only one small signal threshold value is set, misjudgment happens, consequently, user intervention is needed, and full-automatic cleaning of the complex environment is hard are solved. The effects that on the basis of accurately recognizing the virtual wall, it is kept that when the robot advances on the outer side of the virtual wall, the drive wheels of the robot are located on the outer side of the virtual wall and do not enter the inner area of the virtual wall are achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of smart home, in particular to a robot and a robot control method. Background technique [0002] A cleaning robot is a robot that performs cleaning operations while automatically traveling in a certain area without user operation. In the area where the cleaning robot is located, there may be some areas that the user does not want the cleaning robot to enter, such as a bathroom with water on the ground. After the cleaning robot enters, water may enter and cause a malfunction. It may be mistaken to roll the fragmentary parts of the toy into the dust box; since the boundaries of these areas are usually not blocked by obstacles such as doors and walls, in order to prevent the cleaning robot from entering these areas, the user can set at the boundaries of these areas Virtual walls, for example, set a virtual wall at the entrance of the bathroom. [0003] The virtual wall can be realized by setting the virtual w...
