Problems solved by technology

In this case, if the downward-looking sensor parameters are set to a fixed value, then, depending on the color of the floor, different danger distances will be obtained, causing the robot to make a wrong judgment or even fall in certain color environments.

Embodiment Construction

[0038] The technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Apparently, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

[0039] The present invention provides a control method of a self-moving robot, the method comprising: obtaining environmental color information; adjusting detection sensor parameters according to the environmental color information, and the detection sensor parameters are associated with the lowest light intensity; during the walking process of the self-moving robot, the The current light intensity received by the detection sensor is monitored. When the current light intensity is gre...

Abstract

The invention relates to a control method of a self-mobile robot. The control method comprises the following steps: obtaining environment color information at least one time; according to the environment color information, adjusting the parameter of an acquisition sensor at least one time, wherein the parameter of the acquisition sensor is relevant to the lowest light intensity; and during the walking process of the domestic self-mobile robot, monitoring the current light intensity received by the acquisition sensor; and when the current light intensity is greater than the lowest light intensity, the domestic self-mobile robot keeps walking along the original route, and when the current light intensity is less than the lowest light intensity, the domestic self-mobile robot turns to walk. With adoption of the control method, the self-mobile robot can be prevented from misjudgement in the environment with various colors to effectively prevent the robot from falling and / or collision with a wall and other barriers.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a self-moving robot and a control method thereof, belonging to the technical field of intelligent robots. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the development of the economy, self-mobile robots have entered more and more families. Generally, a self-mobile robot is provided with detection sensors, which include downward-looking sensors and side-facing sensors. The structure and function of these two sensors are almost the same. The difference is that the downward-looking sensor is usually used to detect unevenness on the plane where the self-mobile robot walks, while the edge-to-edge sensor is usually used to detect obstacles in the wall or horizontal direction of travel. [0003] Next, the following view sensor will be described as an example. The downward-looking sensor includes an (infrared) transmitting tube and a (infrared) receiving tube. The transmitting tube emits an infrared signal, and the infrared si...
