Abstract: Disclosed herein is a control method and a control device of cleaning equipment, the method including: controlling the cleaning equipment to stop running straight, when a collected first ADC value is greater than a first preset value; and then controlling the cleaning equipment to turn in a preset direction, then controlling the cleaning equipment to stop turning, when a collected second ADC value is less than a second preset value; and then calculating a first turn angle and a first running distance; next, controlling the cleaning equipment to run straight forward for the first running distance and then stop running straight, and finally controlling the cleaning equipment to turn the first turn angle in the preset direction, then controlling the cleaning equipment to run straight. By adopting embodiments of the present disclosure, efficiency and precision of cleaning equipment in cleaning a pool can be improved.
