Solution Overview
Problem
Existing cleaning robots lack the ability to provide personalized and customizable cleaning services that cater to individual users' needs, often requiring users to input detailed and rigid cleaning plans, which can be time-consuming and degrade user experience.
Innovation Solution
A control method and apparatus for a cleaning robot that allows users to input weekly cleaning constraints, which are then used to generate multiple weekly plan options. The user selects a preferred plan, and the cleaning robot executes the cleaning tasks accordingly, adapting to the user's personalized needs.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the cleaning robot performs cleaning tasks based on a fixed cleaning plan, then the cleaning robot can execute cleaning tasks systematically, but it cannot satisfy users' personalized cleaning needs
Solution Approach 1:
The cleaning robot transitions from static fixed cleaning plans to dynamic adaptive cleaning plans. The system dynamically adjusts cleaning parameters (frequency, time, zones) based on user feedback and actual cleaning needs, allowing the cleaning plan to evolve and adapt to personalized requirements while maintaining systematic execution
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes key parameters of the cleaning plan including cleaning frequency, cleaning time windows, and cleaning zone selections. By allowing these parameters to be adjusted based on user feedback and performance data, the system achieves personalized cleaning without requiring users to manually configure complex detailed plans
2Measurement precision
If the cleaning robot asks users to select unambiguous time, specific zone, and determined work mode, then the cleaning plan can be executed precisely, but it increases time spent by users on customizing settings
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by pre-configuring cleaning plans with default parameters and pre-defining cleaning zones based on initial user input. This allows the system to execute precise cleaning tasks without requiring users to configure every detail manually, reducing setup time while maintaining execution precision
Solution Approach 2:
The cleaning robot automatically optimizes and adjusts cleaning parameters based on performance data and user feedback, performing self-configuration rather than requiring manual user setup. This self-service capability maintains precise cleaning execution while significantly reducing the time users spend on customization
3Ease of operation
If the cleaning robot provides fixed cleaning plans, then the system is simple to operate, but it degrades user experience and appears not intelligent
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements feedback loops where user responses to cleaning performance are collected and used to automatically adjust future cleaning plans. This feedback mechanism enables the system to maintain operational simplicity while demonstrating intelligent adaptation to user preferences and needs, enhancing user experience without increasing complexity

AI summary
The present disclosure relates to a cleaning robot, a control method and control apparatus, and a storage medium. The control method includes receiving a weekly cleaning constraining condition input by a user, the weekly cleaning constraining condition representing a condition to be satisfied when the cleaning robot cleans, in a pre-set period, one or more sub-zones of a plurality of sub-zones corresponding to a work zone included in a map of the work zone. The control method also includes determining a plurality of weekly plan options that satisfy the weekly cleaning constraining condition. The control method also includes providing the plurality of weekly plan options to the user, and obtaining a to-be-executed weekly plan option selected by the user from the plurality of weekly plan options. The control method further includes controlling the cleaning robot to execute cleaning tasks in the pre-set period based on the to-be-executed weekly plan option.
