Abstract

An autonomous electronic apparatus and a navigation method thereof are provided. The navigation method includes the following steps. Firstly, a calling signal from a target is received through a wireless sensor network. A position relationship between the target and the autonomous electronic apparatus is analyzed to generate a first speed. Next, an image set is captured and an image relationship between the image set and the target is analyzed to generate a second speed. Afterwards, a weighting value related to the position relationship is calculated. Besides, a moving speed is calculated according to the weighting value, the first speed and the second speed, and a moving status of the autonomous electronic apparatus moving toward the target is controlled via the moving speed.
