Abstract: A robot for performing hand-eye calibration is provided. The robot includes a robot arm including a plurality of joints, a plurality of arm sections, and an end effector, a communication interface, and a control circuit. The control circuit controls the robot arm to place the external object on a worktable after the external object is grasped by the end effector, acquires coordinates of a central point of the external object in a coordinate system of the camera from an image of the external object, and calculates a calibration parameter for defining a relation between a coordinate system of the end effector and the coordinate system of the camera, based on coordinates of the end effector in a base coordinate system of the robot and coordinates of the central point of the external object in the coordinate system of the camera when the external object is placed on the worktable.

Abstract: A cleaning robot includes a data acquisition unit that acquires actual sensor data by measuring a distance from a current position to an object to be measured; a local map acquisition unit that acquires a local map by scanning the vicinity of the current position based on an environmental map stored in advance; and a processor that determines coordinates of the current position for the local map by performing matching between the local map and the actual sensor data, and determines a traveling direction based on the current position by calculating a main segment angle of a line segment existing in the local map.
