    Abstract: Disclosed is a moving robot including: a travel unit configured to move a body; an image acquisition unit configured to acquire a surrounding image of the body; a sensor unit having one or more sensors configured to detect an obstacle while the body moves; a controller configured to: upon detection of an obstacle by the sensor unit, recognize an attribute of the obstacle based on an image acquired by the image acquisition unit, and control driving of the travel unit based on the attribute of the obstacle; and a sound output unit configured to: output preset sound when the recognized attribute of the obstacle indicates a movable obstacle. Accordingly, the moving robot improves stability, user convenience, driving efficiency, and cleaning efficiency.

    Abstract: Data within a designated distance from a main body of the mobile robot is accumulated and stored to form a local area map. A traveling direction or a rotating direction is set while avoiding an obstacle around the main body and a path may be readily set. Repetition of unnecessary operation is prevented and thus a traveling velocity based on rapid movement may be improved. Obstacles are readily avoided and cleaning efficiency may be improved.

    Abstract: A mobile robot and a method of controlling the mobile robot are disclosed. The method includes acquiring an image of an inside of a traveling zone. The method further includes performing a point-based feature point extraction by extracting a first feature point from the acquired image. The method also includes performing a block-based feature point extraction by dividing the acquired image into blocks having a predetermined size and extracting a second feature point from each of the divided block-unit images. The method also includes determining the current location by performing a point-based feature point matching using the first feature point and performing a block-based feature point using the second feature point. The method also includes storing the determined current location in association with the first feature point and the second feature point in a map.

    Abstract: A mobile robot includes a traveling unit configured to move a main body, a LiDAR sensor configured to acquire geometry information, a camera sensor configured to acquire an image of the outside of the main body, and a controller. The controller generates odometry information based on the geometry information acquired by the LiDAR sensor. The controller determines a current location of the mobile robot by performing feature matching between images acquired by the camera sensor based on the odometry information. The controller combines the information obtained by the camera sensor and the LiDAR sensor to accurately determine the current location of the mobile robot.
