Abstract: An automatic cleaning robot is provided. The distance sensor is used to measure a plurality of pitches distances Y(t) between the automatic cleaner and a wall at a plurality of different time points t. And a control module is used to calculate a plurality of travel distances X(t) of the travelling device at the plurality of different time points t. According to the pitches distances Y(t) and the travel distances X(t), a deviation angle A between the travelling direction of the automatic cleaner and the extending direction of the wall is obtained.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a self-propelled cleaning machine of which a control module controls a driving device to prompt a dust compressing member mounted in a dust box to be at a compressing position or a non-compressing position. The dust compressing member of the self-propelled cleaning machine is capable of compressing trash in the dust box to keep the compressed trash within a specific space inside the dust box, thereby achieving an effect of reducing the number of times that a user has to clear the dust box.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a self-propelled device and a method for controlling the same. The self-propelled device can perform an operation. The operation includes the step of: obtaining map data including a plurality of virtual gateways, in which each of the virtual gateways corresponds to a divided area and includes an open status or a closed status; receiving cleaning information from a remote device, in which the cleaning information includes virtual gateway control information, and the virtual gateway control information includes information that the virtual gateways are in the open status or the closed status; searching for a first divided area, which meets a predetermined condition, from currently enterable divided areas according to the virtual gateway control information; and allowing the self-propelled device to enter the first divided area and move throughout the first divided area. In this way, it is convenient for a user to operate the desired area to be cleaned.
