    Abstract: Disclosed is a cleaner. The cleaner includes a cleaner body, a suction nozzle configured to suck dust on a floor surface, and a suction hose configured to transfer the dust, transferred from the suction nozzle, to the cleaner body. The cleaner body includes a driving driver or motor moving the cleaner body, a depth sensor configured to obtain image information about an object near the cleaner body, and a processor configured to extract a foot sole region of a person, based on the obtained image information, obtain a moving point of the cleaner body, based on the extracted foot sole region, and control the driving driver to move the cleaner body to the obtained moving point.
