Abstract
A vacuum cleaner is provided. The vacuum cleaner includes a main body and a front detection sensor disposed to face forward in a suction head coupled to one end of a connection pipe extending from the main body, configured to transmit a forward signal, and receive a signal reflected from an obstacle located in a forward signal area by the forward signal, so as to detect the obstacle. The front detection sensor includes a transmission unit configured to transmit a first forward signal for detecting an obstacle located in a first signal area, and a second forward signal for detecting an obstacle located in a second signal area included in the first signal area, thereby diffusing the transmitted forward signals.
