Electronic device for cooperative operation of a plurality of robot devices and controlling method thereof

A method of controlling an electronic device, the method comprising:

• receiving operation information of a plurality of robot devices;
• identifying at least one first robot device from among the plurality of robot devices as a target device based on the operation information;
• controlling at least one second robot device from among the plurality of robot devices to monitor the target device;
• based on receiving monitoring data from the at least one second robot device:
• identifying whether an operation of the target device is safe based on the monitoring data;
• and
• transmitting a command to the target device based on a result of the identification of the operation of the target device;
• and
• receiving location information regarding the plurality of robot devices,
• wherein the identifying the at least one first robot device as the target device further comprises, based on identifying a location of the at least one first robot device as being in a hazardous region based on hazardous region information and the location information, identifying the at least one first robot device, from among the plurality of robot devices, as the target device.

A system comprising:

• an electronic device comprising:
• a communication interface;
• at least one memory storing one or more instructions;
• and
• one or more processors in communication with the at least one memory and configured to individually or collectively execute the one or more instructions;
• and
• a plurality of robot devices, wherein a robot device of the plurality of robot devices comprises at least one sensor,
• wherein the one or more instructions, when executed by the one or more processors individually or collectively, further cause the electronic device to:
• receive, through the communication interface, operation information of the plurality of robot devices;
• identify a first robot device from among the plurality of robot devices as a target device based on the operation information;
• control, through the communication interface, at least one second robot device from among the plurality of robot devices to monitor the target device;
• based on receiving monitoring data from the at least one second robot device through the communication interface:
• identify whether an operation of the target device is safe based on the monitoring data;
• and
• transmit, through the communication interface, a command to the target device based on a result of the identification of the operation of the target device;
• control, through the communication interface, the target device to monitor the at least one second robot device;
• and
• based on receiving first monitoring data from the target device through the communication interface:
• identify whether an operation of the at least one second robot device is safe based on the first monitoring data, and
• transmit, through the communication interface, a command to the at least one second robot device.
