    Abstract: Disclosed are a lawn mower robot and a control method for same. A lawn mower robot and a control method for same according to an embodiment of the present invention can sense height information about the height between a lawn and the lower side of the lawn mower robot. The sensed height information is used as supporting data for calculating whether the lawn mower robot has deviated from a preset travel path, as well as the deviation direction. Accordingly, even when a separate sensing means is not provided, whether the lawn mower robot has deviated from the preset travel path is calculated using the height information about the height from the ground, and thus the lawn mower can be returned to the preset travel path.
