Disclosed are an electronic device and a method for controlling thereof. A method of controlling an electronic device includes identifying a first traveling path heading to a preset destination based on a map corresponding to an environment in which an electronic device operates; identifying an object interfering with traveling according to the first traveling path based on at least one sensor while traveling according to the first traveling path; identifying an avoidance path to avoid the object based on at least one of a location and speed of the identified object and traveling according to the avoidance path; and based on the identified object being distant by a preset distance or more based on traveling according to the avoidance path, controlling the electronic device to travel according to the first traveling path based on a current location of the electronic device.

Electronic device and method for controlling thereof

A robot includes: a sensor; a driver; a memory storing instructions; and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to execute the instructions to: acquire first scan data including location information of an object around the robot based on a sensing value acquired by the sensor at a first time point, input the first scan data to a neural network model learned to predict scan data to acquire second scan data predicted to be acquired by the robot at a second time point after the first time point, identify a possibility of collision with the object based on location information of the object included in the second scan data; acquire driving data based on the identified possibility of collision; and control the driver based on the acquired driving data.

Robot and method for controlling thereof

Provided are an electronic device for generating map data and an operating method of the electronic device. The operating method of the electronic device includes: obtaining image data of a first resolution and image data of a second resolution for each of a plurality of nodes generated while the electronic device moves; obtaining location information with respect to each of the generated nodes, by using the image data of the second resolution; generating and storing map data by matching the obtained location information with the image data of the first resolution for each node; and estimating a current location of the electronic device by using the generated map data and the image data of the first resolution.

Electronic device for generating map data and operation method thereof

Provided is an autonomous vehicle including a storage configured to store a map including two-dimensionally represented road surface information and three-dimensionally represented structure information, a camera configured to obtain a two-dimensional (2D) image of a road surface in a vicinity of the vehicle, a light detection and ranging (LiDAR) unit configured to obtain three-dimensional (3D) spatial information regarding structures in a vicinity of the vehicle, and a controller comprising processing circuitry configured to determine at least one of the camera or the LiDAR unit as a position sensor, based on whether it is possible to obtain information regarding the road surface and/or the structures in the vicinity of the vehicle, to identify a position of the vehicle on the map corresponding to a current position of the vehicle using the position sensor, and performing autonomous driving based on the identified position on the map.
