A mobile robot of the present disclosure includes: a traveling unit configured to move a main body; a lidar sensor configured to acquire terrain information outside the main body; a camera sensor configured to acquire an image outside the main body; and a controller configured to fuse the image and a detection signal of the lidar sensor to select a front edge for the next movement and set a target location of the next movement at the front edge to perform mapping travelling. Therefore, in a situation where there is no map, the mobile robot can provide an accurate map with a minimum speed change when travelling while drawing the map.

An indoor mobile industrial robot system is configured to provide a weight to a detected object within an operating environment, where the weight relates to how static the feature is. The indoor mobile industrial robot system includes a mechanism configured to translate reflected light energy and positional information into a set of data points representing the detected object having at least one of Cartesian and/or polar coordinates, and an intensity. If any discrete data point within the set of data points representing the detected object has an intensity at or above a defined threshold the entire set of data points is converted into a weight and potentially classified representing a static feature, otherwise such set of data points is classified as representing a dynamic feature having a lower weight.

Provided are an obstacle avoidance method for a self-propelled device, a medium, and a self-propelled device. The method includes acquiring a suspension height of an obstacle on a current travel route during traveling; determining whether the suspension height of the obstacle is within a preset limited height range, wherein the preset limited height range enables a part of the self-propelled device to pass the suspension height and an other part of the self-propelled device is limited by the suspension height; and acquiring, in response to determining that the suspension height of the obstacle is within the preset limited height range, current traveling state information of the self-propelled device, and determining whether to adjust the current travel route based on the current traveling state information to avoid the obstacle

The present application relates to a threshold-type obstacle recognition method, an orientation recognition method of a threshold-type obstacle, and a robot control method.
