US 2026/0227784 A1 · METHOD, SYSTEM, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM FOR CONTROLLING A SERVING ROBOT

Abstract

A method for controlling a serving robot is provided. The method includes the steps of: acquiring sensor data and order data on at least one object placed on at least one support coupled to the serving robot; specifying a serving object to be served from among the at least one object, with reference to the sensor data and the order data, and emitting light indicating a particular support on which the serving object is placed, from a part of a light emission unit of the serving robot that corresponds to the particular support; and dynamically adjusting the light emitted from the light emission unit on the basis of information on environment acquired during operation of the serving robot.
