Abstract
The present disclosure provides a robot charging control method, apparatus, and robot thereof. The method includes: obtaining a linear distance between a charging portion of the robot and a charging station of a charging device, if a charging instruction is detected; determining polar coordinate information of a preset target position in a polar coordinate system taking the position of the charging portion as a pole based on the linear distance; moving the robot to the preset target position according to the polar coordinate information; rotating the robot in situ at the preset target position to a position the charging portion matching the charging station; and moving the robot from the preset target position to the charging station to establish an electrical connection for charging the robot between the charging portion and the charging station. The present disclosure realizes that a navigation route is unnecessary to be made in advance.
