Embodiment Construction

[0104] Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, the same numerals in different drawings refer to the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the following exemplary examples do not represent all implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with aspects of the present disclosure as recited in the appended claims.

[0105] In some cases, the cleaning robot starts from the charging pile to perform cleaning tasks. At this time, the map drawn by the cleaning robot has the marked position of the charging pile, but when the charging pile performs the task of returning to the pile, the charging pile may have shifted, such as : The user moves the charging pile, or the pet collides with the charging pile,...

Abstract

The invention discloses a cleaning robot and a control method thereof and belongs to the field of smart home. The method comprises: acquiring a marked position of a charging pile in a map, wherein the map is a map drawn by the cleaning robot; controlling the cleaning robot to move to a position in front of the marked position and identifying the charging pile; if the charging pile is not identified, generating a searching path based on the marked position; controlling the cleaning robot to move forward according to the searching path, and identifying the charging pile in a movement process. By adopting the cleaning robot and the control method thereof, the problems that an actual position of the charging pile is different from the marked position in the map and the cleaning robot cannot find the charging pile and cannot perform pile returning action are solved and the effects of improving the intelligent degree of the cleaning robot and reducing manual intervention are realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of smart home, in particular to a cleaning robot and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] A cleaning robot is a robot that performs cleaning operations while automatically traveling in a certain area to be cleaned without user operation. [0003] When the cleaning robot starts to work, the cleaning robot starts the cleaning task from the charging pile and draws a map. At this time, the location of the charging pile is marked on the map; The location of the charging pile, return to the charging pile for charging. Contents of the invention [0004] In order to solve the problem that the actual location of the charging pile is different from the marked location on the map, and the cleaning robot cannot find the charging pile and cannot perform the action of returning to the pile, the present disclosure provides a cleaning robot and a control method thereof. The technical solution is as fol...
