Provided are a cleaning robot and a method of controlling the same, and more specifically, a cleaning robot provided to detect an obstacle in various directions and a method of controlling the same. The cleaning robot includes a light emitter configured to radiate light, a plurality of light receivers configured to receive a radiation of the light in a predetermined direction among radiations of the light reflected from an obstacle when the radiated light is reflected from the obstacle, a support plate to which the light emitter and the light receiver are fixed and which is rotatably provided, and a controller configured to detect the obstacle on the basis of output signals transmitted from the light emitter and the plurality of light receivers and rotation information of the support plate.

Cleaning robot and control method therefor

A mobile robot moving to a target position indicated by a user terminal, the mobile robot includes a driver configured to move the mobile robot; a communication interface configured to exchange a wireless signal with each of a first terminal transceiver and a second terminal transceiver included in the user terminal; and a controller configured to control the driver to move to the target position after transmission and reception of the wireless signal with the first terminal transceiver and transmission and reception of the wireless signal with the second terminal transceiver.

Mobile robot and method of controlling the same and mobile robot system

Disclosed herein are a cleaning robot and a method of controlling the same. The cleaning robot according to one embodiment includes a modular in which one or more modules configured to support different functions are integrated, and a controller configured to control the overall operation of the cleaning robot.

Cleaning robot and method for controlling same

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a cleaning robot and a method of controlling the same, and more particularly, to a cleaning robot docking to a station based on a radio frequency (RF) signal and a method of controlling the same. An aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a cleaning robot comprising a cleaning robot antenna unit configured to receive a radio frequency (RF) signal transmitted from a station; and a controller configured to extract a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) value by processing the RF signal received by the cleaning robot antenna unit and control movement of the cleaning robot to dock to the station based on the extracted RSSI value.
