Publication number: 20240377835Abstract: In order to achieve the purpose, a robotic cleaner according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes: a traveling unit for moving a body in a traveling region; a distance measuring sensor for acquiring distance sensing information about a distance to an object outside the body; and a control unit which generates a grid map about the traveling region from the distance sensing information, performs, when dividing the traveling region into a plurality of sub-areas, ray casting on a plurality of traveling nodes on a path of the grid map with respect to each sub-area to search for an open space, and sets an open node for the open space to calculate a topology graph between the traveling nodes and the open node. Therefore, efficiency can be improved by minimizing unnecessary traveling when traveling for searching for a space in which additional traveling is required.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 12, 2022Publication date: November 14, 2024Inventors: Sangyol YOON, Miyoung SIM, Jongbeom JEON

Patent number: 9180596Abstract: A robot cleaner includes a main body, a traveling unit, a cleaning unit, a sensor unit, and a controller. The traveling unit allows the main body to travel. The cleaning unit suctions foreign substances around the main body during the traveling. The sensor unit is rotatable and senses an obstacle using light reflected or scattered by the obstacle. The controller controls the traveling unit so as to travel along a traveling path and controls the cleaning unit so as to perform cleaning. Here, the sensor unit includes a first mode and a second mode that are set to differ from each other in sensitivity with respect to the reflected or scattered light, and the controller changes the sensitivity of the sensor unit according to a traveling mode.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2013Date of Patent: November 10, 2015Assignee: LG ELECTRONICS INC.Inventors: Miyoung Sim, Hyeongshin Jeon
