Abstract
A robot cleaner using artificial intelligence may include a traveling unit configured to move a main body; a cleaning unit configured to perform a cleaning function; a sensing unit configured to sense a surrounding user; and a controller configured to recognize location of a user based on information sensed through the sensing unit, and control to follow the user to perform cleaning. A method of controlling the robot cleaner using artificial intelligence may include recognizing location of a user; and a follow-up cleaning step of following the user to clean a surrounding area of the user.
Claims16
An autonomous cleaner comprising:
- a motor that is selectively driven to move the autonomous cleaner;
- a cleaning head that performs cleaning;
- a sensor that detects information about a region in which the autonomous cleaner is travelling;
- and
- a controller that:
- determines a location of a user based on the information detected by the sensor, and
- manages the motor based on the location the user such that the autonomous cleaner moves to follow the user and to perform cleaning.
