摘要:
Technology for creating a feature map for localizing a mobile robot and extracting feature information of surroundings is provided. According to one aspect, feature information including a reflection function is extracted from information acquired using a 3D distance sensor and used as a basis for creating a feature map. Thus, a feature map that is less sensitive to change in the surrounding environment can be created, and a success rate of feature matching can be increased.

An obstacle detecting apparatus and a method thereof, which are usable in an autonomous moving robot, are provided. The obstacle detecting apparatus extracts at least one plane from measured range data, extracts at least one intersection point and at least one intersection line using at least one plane, and extracts matching data neighboring at least one intersection point and at least one intersection line from the range data. The matching data is extracted by reflecting uncertainties of the intersection point and the intersection line extracted from the measured range data. Matching is performed between the extracted matching data and model data, and an obstruction is detected by using the matching result.

A cleaning robot having a carpet detector and a method of detecting a carpet boundary using the same, in which the presence of the carpet on a floor is detected. The cleaning robot having a carpet detector includes a main body, a driver fixed to the main body to move the robot, and the carpet detector detecting a carpet when the robot is driven by the driver. The method of detecting a carpet boundary includes detecting a carpet using respective carpet detectors fixed to both wheels of a robot, obtaining a moving distance of the robot for an interval between times at which the respective carpet detectors detect the carpet, and calculating a boundary direction of the carpet with respect to a moving direction of the robot using the moving distance and the interval between the times at which the respective carpet detectors detect the carpet.

A motion-based input device includes an inertial sensor acquiring an inertial signal corresponding to a user's motion, a buffer unit buffering the inertial signal at predetermined intervals, a mode classifying unit extracting a feature from the buffered inertial signal and classifying an input mode as either of a continuous state input mode and a symbol input mode based on the extracted feature, and an input processing unit which processes the inertial signal according to the classified input mode to recognize either of a continuous state and a symbol and outputs an input control signal indicating either of the recognized continuous state and symbol. The inertial sensor includes at least one sensor among an acceleration sensor and an angular velocity sensor. The motion-based input device further includes an input button that functions as a switch allowing the user to input a motion.
