Task processing method for a plurality of robots, and robot

A task processing method for a plurality of robots, which is performed by a task processing device, wherein the task processing device and the plurality of robots are both deployed with a first communication module configured to perform bidirectional communication between the plurality of robots and the task processing device, the plurality of robots further comprise a second communication module configured to perform bidirectional communication between the plurality of robots, and the task processing method comprises:

• identifying at least one robot of the plurality of robots as a disconnected robot in case that a heartbeat connection between the at least one robot and the task processing device is detected to be lost;
• obtaining a historical position of the disconnected robot and a current position of a connected robot of the plurality of robots, wherein the connected robot is a robot that maintains a heartbeat connection with the task processing device;
• for the disconnected robot, determining a target sending robot corresponding to the disconnected robot from the plurality of robots according to the historical position of the disconnected robot and a current position of the connected robot, wherein the target sending robot comprises the connected robot, wherein the determining the target sending robot corresponding to the disconnected robot from the plurality of robots comprises:
• obtaining a historical position of another disconnected robot than the disconnected robot in case that each of distances between current positions of connected robots and a historical position of the disconnected robot is greater than a distance threshold;
• determining the another disconnected robot, of which a historical position is at a distance from the historical position of the disconnected robot less than or equal to the distance threshold as a candidate disconnected robot according to the historical position of the another disconnected robot;
• determining the connected robot of which a current position is at a distance from a historical position of the candidate disconnected robot less than or equal to the distance threshold as a candidate connected robot according to the historical position of the candidate disconnected robot and the current position of the connected robot;
• and
• determining a target disconnected robot and a target connected robot corresponding to the disconnected robot from the candidate disconnected robot and the candidate connected robot as the target sending robot respectively;
• and
• sending task information of a current task of the disconnected robot to the disconnected robot through the target sending robot.
