    Abstract: A method for eliminating misjudgment of a reflective light applied to an autonomous robot is provided. The autonomous robot includes a driving system and an optical sensing system that includes a light source and a light sensor. The light source emits a transverse linear light as detection light and the light sensor senses reflective light signals from an object that reflects the detection light. In the method, a frame image including the reflective light signals is captured by the light sensor, characteristics of the reflective light signals are analyzed, and the characteristics of the reflective light signals can be corrected based on the characteristics of previous reflective light signals stored in a memory of the autonomous robot in order to exclude abnormal information. The object can be confirmed based on the corrected characteristics of reflective light signals. The misjudgment caused by the abnormal information can therefore be eliminated.
