A home robot device includes a memory, a movement module, and a processor. The processor is configured to execute a motion based on specified motion execution information stored in the memory, obtain feedback information of a user, generate modified motion execution information by modifying at least a portion of the specified motion execution information based on the feedback information of the user, where the modified motion execution information includes a movement value of at least one joint unit of the home robot device or at least one support linked to the at least one joint unit selected from a probability model of the specified motion execution information, and execute a motion of the home robot device based on the modified motion execution information.

Operation method for activation of home robot device and home robot device supporting the same

A robot for performing hand-eye calibration is provided. The robot includes a robot arm including a plurality of joints, a plurality of arm sections, and an end effector, a communication interface, and a control circuit. The control circuit controls the robot arm to place the external object on a worktable after the external object is grasped by the end effector, acquires coordinates of a central point of the external object in a coordinate system of the camera from an image of the external object, and calculates a calibration parameter for defining a relation between a coordinate system of the end effector and the coordinate system of the camera, based on coordinates of the end effector in a base coordinate system of the robot and coordinates of the central point of the external object in the coordinate system of the camera when the external object is placed on the worktable.

Robot and electronic device for performing hand-eye calibration

A cleaning robot includes a data acquisition unit that acquires actual sensor data by measuring a distance from a current position to an object to be measured; a local map acquisition unit that acquires a local map by scanning the vicinity of the current position based on an environmental map stored in advance; and a processor that determines coordinates of the current position for the local map by performing matching between the local map and the actual sensor data, and determines a traveling direction based on the current position by calculating a main segment angle of a line segment existing in the local map.

An electronic device, capable of being placed on a cradle, may include a camera module configured to acquire an image, a sensor module configured to sense information regarding an orientation of the electronic device, a processor configured to determine a target orientation of the electronic device based on the acquired image and a communication module configured to transmit the information regarding the orientation of the electronic device and information regarding the target orientation of the electronic device to the cradle.

Electronic device and cradle thereof

An electronic device to be put on a cradle may include a housing including a part in a hemispherical shape and physically coming into contact with the cradle in an arbitrary position when the electronic device is put on the cradle, a display arranged on another part of the housing, a camera module to obtain an image in a direction that the display faces, a sensor module to sense an orientation of the electronic device; and a processor to determine a target orientation of the electronic device based on the obtained image, and create control data to change the orientation of the electronic device based on the sensed orientation and the target orientation of the electronic device.

Electronic device and cradle therefore

A mobile robot and method for controlling the same are provided creating patches in images captured by a camera while the mobile robot is moving, estimating motion blur of the patches, and correcting the position of the mobile robot based on the patch from which the motion blur is eliminated, thereby increasing precision in tracking and reliability through accurate mapping. The mobile robot includes a main body, a traveler to move the main body, a camera combined with the main body to capture an image of a surrounding of the main body, a position detector to create a patch in the image captured by the camera, estimate a motion blur of the patch, and track a position of the main body based on the created patch from which the motion blur is eliminated, and a controller to control the traveler based on the position of the main body.

Mobile robot and method for controlling the same

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a robot cleaner and a control method of the robot cleaner, more particularly, to a robot cleaner configured to correct position information of the robot cleaner by acquiring a position of a docking station during the robot clear drives and to correct a map by using corrected position information, and a control method of the robot cleaner.
