Example Embodiment

[0051] Cleaning robots, such as sweeping robots, when cleaning in the home, complete the cleaning by traversing the entire apartment area. If it is impossible to distinguish between different rooms and clean separately, the robot will repeatedly enter and exit the same room, or alternate between different rooms, and it will need to enter and exit multiple times to complete the cleaning task of a room, which directly leads to low cleaning efficiency; indirectly Repeated scans, missed scans, etc., even the entire house cannot be cleaned completely. In order to solve the above problems, it is necessary to identify the room and follow the principle of cleaning a single room before entering the next room.

[0052] There is a static partitioning scheme in the prior art. Static partitioning scheme, that is, after the cleaning robot completes at least one cleaning, it can outline the house map of the entire house; then the house map is partitioned to divide different rooms, and the robo...

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a dynamic region division method, a region channel identification method and a cleaning robot. The dynamic region division method comprises the following stepsthat: environmental information collected by a robot is acquired when the robot works in a first region; when it is determined that a channel entering a second region exists based on the environmentinformation, whether the robot completes a working task in the first region or not is judged; and when the working task is not completed, a boundary at the channel is supplemented to block the channel. According to the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention, the probability of repeated sweeping and missed sweeping is reduced, and the cleaning efficiency is high; besides, themethod provided by the technical schemes of the embodiment depends on the environmental information collected in work without the help of historical map data, so that environmental adaptability is high.

Description

[0001] cross reference [0002] This application refers to the Chinese patent application No. 2019100050535 entitled "Dynamic Area Division Method and Cleaning Robot" submitted on January 03, 2019, which is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this application. technical field [0003] The present application relates to the field of computer technology, in particular to a dynamic area division and area channel identification method and a cleaning robot. Background technique [0004] With the development and progress of technology, mobile robots are widely used to assist humans to complete some tasks, such as transportation, sweeping and so on. Among them, cleaning robots (such as sweeping robots, mopping robots, etc.) are typical applications of mobile robots. If the path or behavior planning of the robot is not reasonable, there will be problems such as low coverage and high path repetition rate. [0005] In the prior art, after the cleaning robot completes at l...
