Problems solved by technology

However, the area covered by furniture in the home environment has become a difficult point for sweeping robots. For example, furniture such as beds and sofas have a height difference (hole) from the ground, and this height is very close to the overall height of the current sweeping machine. In addition, the existing The panel of the sweeper generally has a protrusion in the middle, which causes the sw

Abstract

The invention provides a hole detection device and an unknown area exploration method for a sweeping robot. The device comprises a GPU processor module, a depth camera module, a sonar detection devicemodule and an infrared sensor module. The method comprises the steps that height limit detection is conducted by three kinds of distance measurement sensors, and walking is conducted along the edge of an obstacle. The hole detection device for the sweeping robot has the advantages of being simple in structure and reasonable in arrangement, and the unknown area exploration method for the sweepingrobot has the advantages that the operation amount is low, the efficiency is high, obstacle and hole judgment is accurate, and the method helps to improve the advancing and cleaning efficiency of thesweeping robot. According to the device and method, holes are divided according to the level, through hole detection of the same level, the sweeping robot can enter the holes of all levels, the robotcan enter an unknown area for exploration, exploration covering is comprehensive, and the aim of non-dead-corner cleaning is achieved.
