Robot and advancing control method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a robot and an advancing control method thereof. The robot comprises a touch sensing module, a motor and a control module; the control module is connected with the touch sensing module and the motor; the control module is connected with the motor and used for controlling the motor to be powered on; the touch sensing module is used for sending a hand pushing function starting prompt signal to the control module after sensing the touch operation of a user; the control module is further used for controlling the motor to be powered off according to the hand pushing functionstarting prompt signal so that the user can push and pull the robot manually to avoid obstacles. Therefore, the movement of the robot can be simply and quickly realized, and the controllability of the robot is enhanced.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiment of the present invention relates to the technical field of traveling of a moving object, since it relates to a robot and a method for controlling its traveling. Background technique [0002] Mobile robots are widely used in industrial (such as automated logistics and inspection) and civil (such as smart cars and service robots) and other fields. At present, in order to prevent the robot from forcibly hitting obstacles and damaging the fuselage, when the robot is blocked by obstacles, the motors in the robot will be automatically locked to prevent the robot from moving forward. However, this design often brings another kind of inconvenience. If an obstacle blocks the robot for a long time and the motor is locked, the user cannot easily drag the robot. [0003] If the user needs to push the robot around obstacles, there are generally 4 methods. [0004] Method 1: Pause the walking function through the control software; [0005] Method 2...

Problems solved by technology

[0009] For the second method, the position of the emergency stop switch button is different in different types of robots, which is greatly affected by the hardware condition.

[0010] For the third method, this function has a deep level, complex operation, and requires professional training; and this function mainly serves the charging scene, not suitable for instant push

[0011] For the fourth method, the shutdown button of the current product is a mechanical button, and the position is at the bottom of the robot, requiring the user to bend down and squat down to operate; and every time it is blocked, the shutdown process is performed. When the obstacle is removed, the user needs to turn it on again and wait for the restart , the operation is cumbersome, causing inconvenience to users
