Problems solved by technology

[0004] Aiming at the deficiencies of the existing technology, the present invention proposes a control method and system for a sweeping robot, which obtains restriction information through identification tags, and then places restriction marks on the grid map according to the restriction information, and forms a restricted cleaning area according to the restriction marks, aiming to solve the problem of The existing way to control the sweeping robot is to lay magnetic strips on the ground and use the magnetic strips to enclose the restricted area. Due to the use of magnetic strips, it is difficult to lay the magnetic strips after they are curled, and users are prone to tripping.

Embodiment Construction

[0044] In order to make the object, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the present invention, not to limit the present invention.

[0045] Such as figure 1 As shown, the embodiment of the present invention proposes a control method of a sweeping robot, and the method includes the following steps:

[0046] Step S101, identifying the label on the virtual wall device.

[0047] In this embodiment, the virtual wall device is a slat, and a label is provided on the slat. When using the virtual wall device, place the virtual wall device in the area where cleaning needs to be restricted, and the sweeping robot can scan the label for identification. Place the virtual wall device in the area not to be cleaned, specifically, place the v...

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of intelligent home appliances, in particular to a control method and a control system for a sweeping robot. The control method comprises the steps of: identifying a label on virtual wall equipment; parsing the label to obtain restriction information; making a restriction mark on a grid map according to the restriction information; setting a region of the restriction mark to be a restricted cleaning region; and controlling the sweeping robot to execute a cleaning task according to the current grid map. According to the control method and the controlsystem, the restriction information is acquired through identifying the label, the restriction mark is made on the grid map according to the restriction information, the restricted cleaning region isformed according to the restriction mark, and the sweeping robot is controlled to execute the cleaning task according to the updated grid map after the restricted cleaning region is formed; and the control method and the control system aim to solve the problems that magnetic strips are difficult to be flattened after being curled and the user is prone to trip after using the magnetic strips sincethe existing method of controlling the sweeping robot is characterized by laying the magnetic strips on the floor to form a restricted region in an enclosed manner.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of smart home appliances, in particular to a control method and system for a sweeping robot. Background technique [0002] Sweeping robot, also known as automatic cleaning machine, intelligent vacuum cleaner, robot vacuum cleaner, etc., is a kind of smart household appliances, which can automatically complete the floor cleaning work in the room by virtue of certain artificial intelligence. Generally, brushing and vacuuming are used to absorb the debris on the ground into its own garbage storage box, so as to complete the function of ground cleaning. Generally speaking, robots that complete cleaning, vacuuming, and mopping the floor are also collectively classified as sweeping robots. [0003] When the sweeping robot cleans indoors, users in some areas do not want the sweeping robot to clean. At this time, the user can set up a "virtual wall" to limit the cleaning range of the sweeping robot, usually by layi...
