Abstract:
A robot may include an input interface configured to obtain an image of a surrounding environment of the robot, and at least one processor configured to rotate the robot in place for localization, and estimate at least one of a position or a pose in a space, based on a plurality of sequential images obtained by the input interface during the rotation of the robot. The position or the pose of the robot may be estimated based on inputting the plurality of sequential images obtained during the rotation of the robot into a trained model based on an artificial neural network. In a 5G environment connected for the Internet of Things, embodiments of the present disclosure may execute an artificial intelligence algorithm and/or a machine learning algorithm.

Abstract:
Disclosed is a moving robot capable of recognizing a waiting line and a method for controlling the same. One embodiment provides a method for operating a moving robot, the method comprising: starting moving from a predefined moving start point toward a predefined moving end point; acquiring a waiting line region image by photographing a predefined waiting line region during the moving; searching for an end point of a waiting line formed in the waiting line region using the waiting line region image; terminating the moving when the end point of the waiting line is detected; setting an operation mode based on a length of the waiting line calculated using the end point of the waiting line; and operating in the set operation mode while returning to the moving start point.

Abstract:
An air conditioner management system and a method for controlling an air conditioner are disclosed. A user interface device provides a user interface to sense a user measure indicating a user opinion regarding operation of an air conditioner, generates feedback data associated with the sensed user measure, and transmits the generated feedback data. A central management device receives and stores the feedback data transmitted by the user interface device and calculates a set value to control the air conditioner based on the received feedback data and previously stored feedback data.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a method for performing simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) with respect to a salient object in an image, a robot and a cloud server for implementing such method. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a robot includes a camera sensor configured to capture one or more images for the robot to perform the SLAM with respect to a salient object for estimating a location of the robot within the space, a map storage configured to store the information for the robot to perform the SLAM, and a controller that is configured to: detect an object from the captured image; select, as a specific salient object for identifying the space, the detected object verified as corresponding to the specific salient object; and store, in the map storage, the selected specific salient object and coordinate information related to the selected specific salient object.
