According to a moving robot and a method of controlling the same of the present disclosure, the moving robot detect the sound generated in the area, moves a sound generation point according to a type of the sound and an operation mode, analyzes an image of the sound generation point and determines an indoor situation to perform the corresponding operation. The moving robot detects the sound to determine an accident at a location at which the sound is generated, can automatically perform a specified operation corresponding to the generated accident even when there is no control command of a user, and thus, it is possible rapidly respond to the generated accident. The moving robot can divide an object generating the sound into a person, a companion animal, and a subject, and can perform different operations according to the object.

Moving robot and method of controlling the same

A moving robot system includes a moving robot which travels a cleaning area, generates a map for the cleaning area, and moves based on the map; and a terminal which receives the map, sets at least one virtual wall in the map, and transmits the virtual wall to the moving robot, wherein the terminal sets an attribute for controlling operation of the moving robot in the virtual wall, and wherein the moving robot divides a travelable area in correspondence to the virtual wall and performs cleaning while traveling the cleaning area, and performs a specified operation according to the attribute specified to the virtual wall when reaching the virtual wall.

Moving robot and controlling method

A moving robot system includes a moving robot which travels in a cleaning area, generates a map of the cleaning area, moves based on the map, and sucks foreign substances; and a terminal which inputs a cleaning command to the moving robot, based on the map, wherein the moving robot determines that the moving robot is in an isolation state, when the moving robot is unable to move due to a surrounding obstacle while traveling in the cleaning area, and sets a virtual wall in an isolation position where isolation is occurred and avoids the isolation position during a next cleaning operation.
