Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable autonomous travel automatically changing a route when an obstacle is detected in a travel route. SOLUTION: In this patrol robot 1, by indication of a travel management means 1d, a route generating means 1c generates patrol route information up to the next target designation point from a present point, and an autonomous travel control means 1e autonomously travels on a patrol route based on the patrol router information. When stopping by detecting a nonpassible router in the middle of travel, the travel management means 1d sets a stopped position as the present point, and makes a route regenerating means 1c regenerate the patrol route by removing the nonpassible route from a travel possible route. Indication is given to the autonomous travel control means 1e, to travel on a changed patrol route. When reaching the target designation point, the designation point is patrolled by autonomously travelling while making the patrol route with this point as the present point.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make a self-propelled device autonomously travel to a charging device surely with a simple configuration at lower cost in a self-propelled device charging system having the self-propelled device and the charging device for supplying power for charging the self-propelled device. SOLUTION: A security robot 4 includes a detection section 45 having a plurality of first light beam sensors 452a disposed at predetermined intervals along the entire circumference of the side face, and a second light beam sensor 452b disposed to be directed to the direction of movement of the security robot 4. When preset charging timing of the security robot 4 is decided, it is configured to rotate the security robot 4 so that the light beam M emitted by an emission section 22 of a charging device 2 is detected by the second light beam sensor 452b and at least one first light beam sensor 452a out of the two first light beam sensors 452a, 452a disposed on the left and right of the second light beam sensor 452b.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cleaning robot with an intruder repelling function that can prevent damage by reliably repelling an intruder. SOLUTION: A body 10 is provided with human sensors 14 for detecting an intruder into a room, a camera 18 actuated when the human sensors 14 detect an intruder to image the intruder, a spray means 20 for spraying the intruder with gas, smoke or the like, and a buzzer 19 for generating an alarm sound. After a photograph of the intruder imaged by the camera 18 is transmitted to a room owner's cellular telephone, the spray means 20 is actuated to spray gas, smoke or the like from outlets 12 and thereby repel the intruder. When the intruder tries to break the cleaning robot 100, the buzzer 19 generates a loud alarm sound upon impact detection. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a self-traveling vacuum cleaner providing a highly reliable security by stepwisely determining security and gradually raising the security level while waiting a command from a person of a house. SOLUTION: This self-traveling vacuum cleaner, when detecting a human body to be possibly a suspicious person by a human body sensor 21, can perform stepwise security such as lighting of a luminaire (a step S482), flashing of the luminaire (a step S488), issuing of a large-volume voice (a step S494), issuing of a dismissal message (a step S500), and issuing of a notification message to a police (a step S506), takes pictures of the situations of the room inside in the respective levels, transmits them to the person of the house, and determines the affirmative/negative of the stepwise execution according to the command from the person of the house.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow an automatic dust collector to monitor an intruder regardless of low manufacturing costs. SOLUTION: When a human body sensor 10 detects the presence of an object suspected as an intruder, a drive 6 is driven for directing a lens 11a of a photographing apparatus 11 toward the object for photographing the object, and the image data are transmitted to a user's portable telephone terminal via a telephone line, thus leaving the user to determine whether the object is an intruder. In this manner, by determining whether the object is an intruder not by the device itself, the processing algorithm of a control section 16 can be simplified, thus reducing the cost of the device.
