Patent number: 12210351Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method for controlling a robot to return to a base. The method includes the robot receives a return-to-base control signal; the robot walks along different preset paths according to different receiving conditions of guidance signals; and when detecting an intermediate signal during walking along a preset path, the robot returns to the base directly under piloting of the intermediate signal instead of walking along the preset path. The guidance signals are signals sent by a charging base, for piloting the robot to return to the base, and include the intermediate signal.Type: GrantFiled: November 11, 2019Date of Patent: January 28, 2025Assignee: AMICRO SEMICONDUCTOR CO., LTD.Inventors: Huibao Huang, Hewen Zhou, Zhuobiao Chen
