The invention provides an environment detector, an environment detector recovery control method and an environment detector recovery control system. As a data acquisition apparatus is arranged in a spherical shell of the environment detector, environment detection can be performed. During the motion process of the environment detector, a motion track recording device is used for recording the initial position, the current position and the three-dimensional motion track of the environment detector. A motion control device can generate a motion control command of the environment detector according to the initial position, the current position and the three-dimensional motion track of the environment detector, and controls the environment detector to move from the current position to the initial position. Therefore the environment detector can be arranged in a complicated operating environment and can automatically record the motion track, and then can be automatically recovered according to the recorded motion track so that the practicality and durability of the environment detector can be improved and the use-cost of the environment detector can be reduced.
