Abstract

The invention discloses a cleaning robot and a control method thereof, and belongs to the field of robots. The control method includes: recognizing a current region during a cleaning process, using a first distance threshold to trigger the cleaning robot to enter an edge cleaning mode if the current region is a common region, and using a second distance threshold to trigger the cleaning robot to enter an obstacle-avoidance mode if the current region is a preset obstacle region, wherein the first distance threshold is less than the second distance threshold. The problem that the cleaning robot cannot be charged due to the fact that preset obstacles such as charging piles collide with the cleaning robot and shift can be solved; different distance thresholds are used to trigger the cleaning robot to enter the edge cleaning mode for different obstacles; and when the obstacles are the preset obstacles, a large distance threshold is used to trigger the cleaning robot, and then the preset obstacles will not be collided and shift.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of robots, 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] Collision sensing components are usually provided on the periphery of the cleaning robot. When the collision sensing component encounters an obstacle during travel, it will trigger the cleaning robot to go around the obstacle for a week of cleaning, that is, the "edge cleaning" mode. However, in the process of collision between the cleaning robot and the obstacle, if the obstacle is relatively light, it is easy to move the obstacle during the collision process. For example, the obstacle is the charging pile supporting the cleaning robot. If the charging pile is moved multiple times, the cleaning robot may not be able to charge: the charging pile is p...
