The present disclosure provides a moving robot including a body which forms an appearance, a traveler which moves the body with respect to a traveling surface in a traveling area, a sensing unit which acquires environment information of the traveling area, and a controller which sets a parameter tailored to the traveling area according to the environment information and performs pattern traveling of the traveling area. Accordingly, even when information on an environment in which the moving robot is installed is not obtained from a manufacture in advance, the moving robot can directly obtain information on the corresponding environment and set an optimum parameter according to the environment to increase efficiency.

Moving robot and moving robot system

A moving robot includes: a boundary signal detector configured to detect a proximity boundary signal generated in a proximity boundary area in which a portion of a first travel area and a portion of a second travel area are proximal to each other; and a controller configured to define a proximity boundary line based on the proximity boundary signal, and control the travelling unit such that the body performs a homing travel which indicates travelling along the proximity boundary line. The moving robot may be included in a system that includes boundary wires to define the first and second travel areas. The system may further include a docking unit to dock with and charge the moving robot.

The present disclosure provides a moving robot including a body which forms an appearance, a traveler which moves the body, a boundary signal detector which detects a boundary signal generated in a boundary area of a traveling area, and a controller which controls a traveler so that the traveler performs pattern traveling a plurality of times in the traveling area, and controls the traveler so that a traveling angle during first pattern traveling and a traveling angle during second pattern traveling are different from each other. Accordingly, when the pattern traveling is performed a plurality of times, the pattern traveling is performed at angles different from each other based on a reference axis, and it is possible to minimize an area which cannot be mowed and improve efficiency.

A cleaning robot includes a cover, a fixed body provided in the cover, a traveling part connected to the fixed body, a movement frame fastened to the cover to move in correspondence with movement of the cover, an inner body configured to support the movement frame relative to the fixed body, and a rotator provided on a bottom of the inner body to rotate in correspondence with movement of the cover.

Cleaning robot

A charging device of a robotic lawn mower includes a bottom part installed in a partial region of an operation region of the robot, a support part coupled to the bottom part and positioned on a side of a main body of the robot when the robot is being charged, and a terminal part coupled to the support part and positioned above the main body of the robot when the robot is being charged, wherein the bottom part is formed such that only any one of a plurality of wheels of the robot is mounted thereon when the robot is being charged.

Charging device of moving robot and control method thereof

A lawn mower robot includes a body including a mowing device; a sensor disposed in the body and sensing light signal produced from a signal producing unit in the outside; a moving device disposed in the body; and a controller controlling the moving device based on information sensed from the sensor, wherein the controller controls the moving device so that the lawn mower robot is moved along the light signal.
