The present disclosure relates to a robotic cleaner. The robotic cleaner may be configured such that an imaginary plane passing mop contact portions having a small area passes through the center of gravity of the robotic cleaner, thereby travelling while the mops effectively scrub a floor surface.

Robotic cleaner

A robot cleaner and a method of controlling the robot cleaner are disclosed. The robot cleaner may include a body, a mop, an actuator, a battery, a tank, and a controller. The controller controls a supply of liquid from the water tank to the mop, and the supply of the liquid may be controlled in consideration of a state of the battery. Water injection may be controlled according to an expected use time of the battery, such that the mop can maintain an appropriate water content, and uniform mopping and cleaning can be performed.
