    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a map generation method, localization method, and simultaneous localization and mapping method. The method includes: recognizing fiducial markers in the motion area; taking a position as origin of a global coordinate system of the robot, and obtaining pose information of the fiducial markers; the robot moving to a next position, recognizing the fiducial markers with determined coordinate information and underdetermined coordinate information respectively, and obtaining pose information of the fiducial marker of the undetermined coordinate information with respect to the origin based on that of the determined coordinate information; repeating the previous step until the pose information of all the fiducial markers are obtained; and generating a marker map associated with coordinate information of all fiducial markers. The method is capable of generating a map of the motion area through the fiducial markers and further realizing autonomous localization.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a movement control method for a robot as well as an apparatus and a robot using the same. The method includes: obtaining a starting position and an ending position of the robot, in response to a movement instruction being detected; determining a movement path of the robot based on the starting position and the ending position; obtaining pass qualification information of the robot, if the movement path intersects a line corresponding to a preset virtual wall; and moving the robot to the ending position according to the movement path, if the pass qualification information identifying the robot is allowed to traverse the virtual wall. By obtaining the pass qualification information, the robot can return to the working area from the non-working area in the case of an abnormality, while ensuring that the robot does not actively traverse from the working area to the non-working area.
