[0072] Whether to enter the dormant charging state is determined based on the power supply voltage information of the power supply subsystem.

[0073] In the present invention, since the fully autonomous embodied intelligent mobile robot system architecture is equipped with a power subsystem, it has its own survival and maintenance capabilities. Through self-powered power and temperature control measures, it can maintain autonomous survival in harsh environments while supporting the completion of fully autonomous tasks. At the same time, the power supply uses batteries and solar cells, which can be charged by solar cells and can also be used to maintain autonomous survival by batteries when the solar cells are insufficient at night, thereby improving the survivability of the embodied intelligent mobile robot.

Specifically, the embodied intelligent mobile robot can autonomously measure the topography, sun direction, gravity direction, motion inertia, and its own motion state of the natural scene through its own sensors, collect data and process to obtain measurement data; then use the measurement data to autonomously perceive and identify the surrounding terrain and relatively navigate to determine the safe area and obstacle terrain; then estimate its own posture, heading, speed, and position information through the measurement data to further perceive and determine the navigation result information, and autonomously plan a safe movement path based on the mobility of the mobile mechanism; because the mobile mechanism has a motion platform, a motor, and a drive control component, it has a certain ability to climb and overcome obstacles, and can move smoothly under natural terrain; then reach the framing position according to the safe movement path, and use the visual measurement sensor to frame and compose the photographing target, obtain the best photographing position and posture, and take pictures. Then, based on the wireless communication subsystem, it fully autonomously establishes wireless communication with other intelligent entities, and communicates and interacts with other intelligent entities for key information in the task process, including measurement data, motion data, its own status and task results.
