    Abstract: A cleaning robot for detecting a floor while moving around and a method of controlling the cleaning robot are provided. The method includes identifying, by the cleaning robot, a fibrous floor area through a floor detection sensor while the cleaning robot moves around on a cleaning area, determining, by the cleaning robot, based on at least one of a size of the fibrous floor area or a location of the fibrous floor area on a map of the cleaning area, whether the fibrous floor area is a defecation pad area, and causing, based on determining that the fibrous floor area is the defecation pad area, the cleaning robot to move around while avoiding the fibrous floor area.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a cleaner. The cleaner according to an embodiment includes a main body, a suction device configured to suck dust outside the cleaner, a dust detection sensor including a light emitting element and a light receiving element disposed adjacent to the suction device, a dust container configured to store sucked dust through the suction device, and a processor configured to identify a dust inflow state and a dust amount of the dust container based on a voltage value output from the light receiving element, and control an operation of the cleaner based on the identified dust inflow state and dust amount, wherein the light emitting element and the light receiving element are disposed at an outside of the dust container in a direction toward an inlet of the dust container.
