Abstract: A method of controlling a robot includes obtaining a first image and a second image of a plurality of objects, the first and second image being captured from different positions; obtaining, from the first and second images, a plurality of candidate positions corresponding to each of the plurality of objects, based on a capturing position of each of the first and second images and a direction to each of the plurality of objects from each capturing position; obtaining distance information between each capturing position and each of the plurality of objects in the first and second images by analyzing the first and second images; and identifying a position of each of the plurality of objects from among the plurality of candidate positions based on the distance information.

Abstract: A robot and a method for controlling the robot is provided. The robot includes: at least one sensor; a speaker; a microphone; a driver; at least one memory storing one or more instructions; and at least one processor configured to execute the one or more instructions, wherein the one or more instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the robot to: generate a map comprising information regarding a plurality of objects based on sensing information obtained through the at least one sensor, generate ultrasonic waves toward each of the plurality of objects through the speaker, obtain reflectivity information regarding the plurality of objects based on reflected sounds reflected from each of the objects and received through the microphone, and store the reflectivity information, the reflected sounds reflected from each of the objects being at least a portion of the ultrasonic waves reflected from each of the objects, based on receiving a user voice through the microphone, obtain information on an intensity of the user voice for each of a plurality of directions, obtain information on a plurality of candidate directions from which the user voice is received from among the plurality of directions based on the information on the intensity of the user voice for each of the plurality of directions, obtain priority order information for the plurality of candidate directions based on a position of the robot and the stored reflectivity information, and obtain information on a direction in which the user voice is uttered from among the plurality of candidate directions based on the priority order information.
