Abstract
Disclosed is an autonomous mobile robot including a main body, and a driving part positioned below the main body and configured to move the main body, wherein the driving part includes a rotation part that is rotatably provided and is configured to dispose a sensor module including one or more sensors outwards, a base positioned below the rotation part, and a driving wheel installed on the base, thereby embodying a sensing system with low cost and high efficiency.
Claims10
A mobile robot comprising:
- a main body;
- and
- a driving part positioned below the main body and configured to move the main body,
- wherein the driving part includes a rotation part that is rotatably provided and is configured to dispose a sensor module including one or more sensors outwards, a base positioned below the rotation part, and a driving wheel installed on the base.

A method of controlling a mobile robot, the method comprising:
- acquiring sensing data through a plurality of sensor modules during traveling;
- determining whether one or more sensor modules need to rotate based on the sensing data;
- determining a sensor module as a rotation target when rotation is needed;
- and
- rotating a rotation part disposed on the determined sensor module as the rotation target.
