Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, the current sweeping robots are only suitable for cleaning dry garbage such as dust, hair, and paper scraps. They are not suitable for liquids that are spread on the ground, such as a puddle of water spilled on the ground, or a puddle of urine from pet cats and dogs. It is suitable for cleaning, but the sweeping robot will still drive through these piles of liquid, and will suck the liquid into the dust suction duct and dust box like dry garbage, which may short-circuit the internal circuit of the machine and cause damage

Abstract

The invention discloses a control method of a floor sweeping robot. The method at least comprises the steps of collecting ground images in the walking direction of the floor sweeping robot through thearrangement of a vision sensor on the floor sweeping robot; judging whether or not there is a puddle of liquid on the ground in the walking direction of the floor sweeping robot according to the collected ground images; if yes, controlling the floor sweeping robot to avoid the liquid. According to the control method, the floor sweeping robot which conducts navigation based on visual analysis caneffectively conduct liquid detection to avoid the liquid, and the situation that in the sweeping process, the liquid on the ground is sucked in a dust suction air channel and a dust collection box, and the robot is possibly damaged is conveniently avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of smart home appliances, in particular to a method for controlling a sweeping robot. Background technique [0002] Various smart home appliances have brought great convenience to people's daily life, and sweeping robots are a type of smart home appliances that have emerged in recent years and have been welcomed by people. [0003] The sweeping robot can automatically navigate based on radar detection or visual analysis, so as to clean the ground for people in an orderly manner. For a sweeping robot that navigates based on visual analysis, at least one visual sensor is provided on its body to collect images of the surrounding environment when the sweeping robot is working, analyze the images, and navigate based on the analysis results. [0004] However, the current sweeping robots are only suitable for cleaning dry garbage such as dust, hair, and paper scraps. They are not suitable for liquids that are spre...
