Problems solved by technology

The advantage of the detection and pathfinding system that does not use inertial navigation sensors is that the coverage rate is high, but the disadvantage is that there is no space planning, which leads to repeated cleaning and makes the time too long
The advantage of the detection and pathfinding system using inertial navigation sensors is that it is more efficient in the case of effective positioning, but if it cannot be accurately positioned and has many obstacles, it cannot effectively move to the uncovered area, resulting in the same space. Repeated movements can't even span the space area, so the coverage is low and the cleaning effect can't be achieved

Embodiment Construction

[0038] Nowadays, the application level of automatic mobile robots is getting wider and wider, and the robots used for sweeping the floor have penetrated into the home and become a new generation of white goods. This proposal proposes a method of controlling robot sweeping, which can quickly increase the cleaning rate coverage of the space. In order to make the content of the present invention clearer, the following specific examples are given as examples in which the present invention can actually be implemented.

[0039] figure 1 is a block diagram of a robot 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Please refer to figure 1 , the robot 100 includes a moving mechanism 110 , a controller 120 , a memory 130 , an edge sensing module 140 and an obstacle sensing module 150 . The controller 120 is coupled to the moving mechanism 110 , the memory 130 , the edge sensing module 140 and the obstacle sensing module 150 .

[0040] The moving mechanism 110 is, for examp...

Abstract

The invention provides a robot control method. In an edgewise mode, a robot is driven to walk towards the edge and cling to an object along the edge, and whether a path turning point or completion ofa preset distance is obtained by detection is determined; and if YES, the robot is switched to a cattle plowing mode; and in the cattle plowing mode, the robot is driven to make the cattle plowing type movement based on the movement distance that is finished along the object along the edge.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an intelligent robot, in particular to a method for controlling a robot. Background technique [0002] For a cleaning robot, its task is to clean every space in its environment, so how to quickly and efficiently increase the cleaning coverage is particularly important. Under cost and technical considerations, most cleaning robots belong to the random coverage path mode. In this path mode, there is no need for positioning and no map for reference, so the path cannot be planned, so the behavior of its movement path depends on internal movement calculations. And the pros and cons of computing will ultimately determine the level of its cleaning efficiency. [0003] The random coverage detection pathfinding system refers to the detection pathfinding system of long-distance sensing and close-range collision detection, which is based on certain movement rules (such as random, polygonal, spiral, along the edge, or cattle farming traj...
