    Abstract: An intelligent robot includes a main body, an environment sensing device, and a control circuit board. The main body includes a body, a protective side plate, and a partition structure. The protective side plate is movably connected to the body. The body and the protective side plate cooperatively defines an accommodation cavity, the protective side plate includes an light transmission region, the partition structure is fixedly connected to the body and received in the accommodation cavity, the partition structure divides the accommodation cavity into a first space and a second space. The environment sensing device is at least partially received in the first space, and capable of transmitting and receiving environmental sensing signals within a preset scanning angle through the light transmission region of the protective side plate. The control circuit board is received in the second space, and electrically connected to the environment sensing device.

    Abstract: A method includes maneuvering a robot in (i) a following mode in which the robot is controlled to travel along a path segment adjacent an obstacle, while recording data indicative of the path segment, and (ii) in a coverage mode in which the robot is controlled to traverse an area. The method includes generating data indicative of a layout of the area, updating data indicative of a calculated robot pose based at least on odometry, and calculating a pose confidence level. The method includes, in response to the confidence level being below a confidence limit, maneuvering the robot to a suspected location of the path segment, based on the calculated robot pose and the data indicative of the layout and, in response to detecting the path segment within a distance from the suspected location, updating the data indicative of the calculated pose and/or the layout.

    Abstract: This application provides a method for controlling a robot cleaner, a robot cleaner, and a storage medium. The method for controlling the robot cleaner includes the steps of: acquiring a weight of the water tank, comparing the weight of the water tank with a setting value to acquire a comparison result, determining a remaining usable time of the robot cleaner according to the comparison result, and controlling the robot cleaner according to the remaining usable time. Since the weight of the water tank is not easily interfered by other factors, the acquiring of weight has a high accuracy, thereby the remaining usable time determined according to the weight of the water tank has a high accuracy, and then the robot cleaner is controlled according to the remaining usable time with higher accuracy. The control accuracy of the robot cleaner thus can be improved.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the technical field of smart home, and in particular, to a floor material recognition method, a control method, and a storage medium. The recognition method for the autonomous mobile device for recognizing the floor material includes: transmitting control instructions to the autonomous mobile device, the control instructions including commands that instruct the autonomous mobile device to rotate at a same location for a predetermined rotation angle; obtaining an actual rotation angle of the autonomous mobile device; determining a floor material based on the predetermined rotation angle and the actual rotation angle, such that the autonomous mobile device can automatically recognize different floor materials, and execute different functions or work modes, or automatically configure different set velocities based on the different floor materials, such that the autonomous mobile device can reach substantially consistent actual moving velocities when moving on the different floor materials.

    Abstract: A pool-cleaning robot is provided, comprising: a robot body with a moving mechanism controlled to move the robot body forward or backward; wherein the robot body has a weight difference between its left and right sides; the moving mechanism includes a driver to drive the moving mechanism unilaterally; the robot body is provided with a fluid inlet-outlet, at least one first fluid inlet, and at least one first fluid outlet, which are communicated with each other. The fluid inlet-outlet is provided with a fluid driver that applies a suction force to the first fluid inlet or a discharge force to the first fluid outlet; a controller in the robot body, connected to and controlling the operation of the moving mechanism and the fluid driver; when the robot body is on a floor or walls of a pool, combinations of discharge forces, suction forces and weight differences steer the robot.

    Abstract: A robot includes: a travel unit configured to move the robot; a light detection and ranging (LiDAR) sensor; and at least one processor configured to: obtain first distance data between the robot and objects around the robot by using the LiDAR sensor, obtain line data corresponding to an object having a line shape based on the first distance data, control the travel based on the line data to move the robot, track the line data based on second distance data obtained by the LiDAR sensor while the robot moves, and identify a curvature value of the tracked line data, and identify whether the LiDAR sensor is defective based on a change in the curvature value.
