Problems solved by technology

However, the cost of virtual lighthouses is relatively high. If users need to divide the room into multiple areas, they need to purchase additional virtual lighthouses, which greatly increases the cost of use. In addition, virtual lighthouses are too large, for example, placing them next to the door will affect the normal use of the door , the user needs to place it when using it, and put it away when it is used up. The operation is cumbersome

Embodiment Construction

[0035] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the present invention, not to limit the present invention.

[0036] refer to figure 1 , the indoor area division method of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0037] S1. The sweeping robot uses the magnetic field sensor installed at its bottom to detect the magnetic strip pre-set on the ground at the door of the room.

[0038] S2. Determine the position of the magnetic stripe in the environmental map, and determine the virtual boundary position between the two cleaning areas according to the position of the magnetic stripe.

[0039] In the above step S1, the magnetic strip is set at the door; the flat shape can be set for a long time without affecting the opening and closing of the door, without moving easily, reducing human intervention, more convenient, better user experience, and the cost of the magnetic strip It is relatively cheap, which can reduce the...

Abstract

The present invention discloses an indoor area division method and a sweeping robot. The indoor area division method includes: the sweeping robot uses a magnetic field sensor installed at the bottom to detect a magnetic strip pre-set on the ground at the door of the room; and determines the position of the magnetic strip in the environmental map Position, the position of the virtual boundary between two cleaning areas is determined according to the position of the magnetic strip. Using magnetic strip positioning, the area division is reasonable, the magnetic strip is smaller, can be set for a long time, the operation is more convenient, and the cost is also reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of area recognition, in particular to an indoor area division method and a sweeping robot. Background technique [0002] With the development of technology and the improvement of people's living standards, sweeping robots with autonomous mobility have been greatly popularized. Sweeping robot, also known as robot vacuum cleaner, uses the fan on the fuselage to suck the garbage on the ground into the dust box, and moves autonomously through the walking wheels to achieve the purpose of automatically cleaning the room. [0003] In order to clean more effectively, the sweeping robot needs to divide the indoor environment into areas. At present, there are two main ways to divide the area: the first one is to divide the environment into several parts according to the fixed size according to the position information of the robot and clean them in turn. However, this method cannot adapt to the different characteristics of di...
