    Abstract: A robot cleaner is provided. The robot cleaner includes a main body forming an exterior; a floor detection sensor for detecting a distance from the main body to a floor surface; a tilt sensor for detecting inclination of the main body; and a controller for determining whether there is a protruding part that protrudes from a floor surface in a running path of the main body, based on a first sensor value output by the floor detection sensor and a second sensor value output by the tilt sensor. In accordance with embodiments of the present disclosure, a robot cleaner may properly move around and perform vacuuming by taking into account conditions of a floor surface. It may also smoothly climb over a doorsill and dynamically change its running pattern based on the presence/absence and position of an obstacle in climbing the doorsill.

    Abstract: A mobile robot system for allowing a user to easily input a control command of a mobile robot, and a remote control method for the same are disclosed. The mobile robot system and the remote control method thereof can allow a user to easily input control commands regarding the movement and operation of the mobile robot using the jog-dial interface, such that the possibility of causing input errors can be reduced and desired commands can be quickly and efficiently transmitted, resulting in increased user manipulation of the mobile robot system. When the user enters the rotation command of the mobile robot, the mobile robot system can allow the user to perform intuitive interfacing through shuttle manipulation, such that the mobile robot system can facilitate transmission of a movement command having a circular trajectory and the same mobile robot control as in the user-intended control is achieved, resulting in implementation of emotional interface capable of increasing user accessibility.

    Abstract: An autonomous floor cleaning robot includes a body, a controller supported by the body, a drive supporting the body to maneuver the robot across a floor surface in response to commands from the controller, and a pad holder attached to an underside of the body to hold a removable cleaning pad during operation of the robot. The pad includes a mounting plate and a mounting surface. The mounting plate is attached to the mounting surface. The robot includes a pad sensor to sense a feature on the pad and to generate a signal based on the feature, which is defined in part by a cutout on the card backing. The mounting plate enables the pad sensor to detect the feature. The controller is response to the signal to perform operations including selecting a cleaning mode based on the signal, and controlling the robot according to a selected cleaning mode.
