This invention discloses a method for locating and positioning a warehousing
robot, a warehousing
robot, and an automated storage and retrieval
system. The method includes: when the conditions for performing a return-to-home action are met, controlling the warehousing
robot to move to the position on the return-to-home track; initializing the current position of the warehousing robot based on a return-to-home detection
signal received from a return-to-home positioning sensor that detects a return-to-home positioning marker; wherein the return-to-home execution conditions include a power-on command for the warehousing robot; after successful initialization, during the warehousing robot's movement along the track, determining the real-time
walking distance of the warehousing robot based on a multi-aperture positioning sensor that detects a multi-aperture detection
signal from the first positioning aperture, and updating the current position of the warehousing robot in real time. Through the cooperation of the return-to-home positioning sensor and the return-to-home positioning marker, it is ensured that the warehousing robot starts from the return-to-
home position on the return-to-home track, avoiding the warehousing robot's inability to move to the target position due to an incorrect starting position.
