Problems solved by technology

[0008] Also, robotic cleaners tend to scatter collected dust when stopped and turned for direction changes during zigzag-based cleaning
Specifically, in the case of wet cleaning, a robot cleaner may shed a large amount of dust at the point of change of direction because it wipes the dust with the mop rather than inhales it
[0009] In addition, robot cleaners have the following problem: dust is collected between the main brush and the blades made of soft material, and the blades are installed behind the main brush in a reverse inclined direction

Abstract

A control method of a robot cleaner for traveling to clean includes checking information about a predetermined traveling pattern; determining a traveling trajectory based on a traveling speed; generating a traveling pattern based on the determined traveling trajectory and the information about the predetermined traveling pattern, wherein the traveling pattern includes a first straight path, a first rotation path connected to the first straight path and for rotation in a first direction, a second straight path connected to the first rotation path, and a second rotation path connected to the second straight path and for rotation in a second direction; and repeatedly traveling along the generated traveling pattern at regular intervals. Therefore, since the robot cleaner performs cleaning without scattering dust, the efficiency of cleaning may be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] One or more embodiments relate to a robot cleaner for creating a pattern capable of improving cleaning efficiency and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] In general, a robot cleaner automatically cleans an area to be cleaned without user's manipulation by sucking impurities such as dust from the ground while autonomously traveling within the cleaning area. [0003] During the cleaning process, the robot cleaner uses sensors to determine the distance to obstacles such as furniture, office equipment, walls, etc. that exist in the cleaning area, and based on the determined Travel within the area. [0004] Cleaning a given cleaning area using a robot cleaner means an operation in which the robot cleaner repeatedly travels within the cleaning area along a preset travel pattern to clean the cleaning area, wherein the preset travel pattern is, for example, a zigzag Patterns, spiral patterns, random patterns, etc. [0005] The zigzag pat...
