Abstract: A robot includes: a body portion; at least one sensor provided in the body portion; a first wheel and a second wheel provided on opposite sides of the body portion and configured to rotate; a first driver configured to rotate the first wheel and the second wheel with respect to a first rotation axis; a second driver configured to eccentrically rotate the first wheel and the second wheel with respect to a second rotation axis; and at least one processor configured to: control the first driver and the second driver to cause the robot to move along a route by rotating the first wheel and the second wheel, identify, based on sensing data obtained through the at least one sensor, an obstacle for climbing on the route, and based on identifying the obstacle, control the second driver to eccentrically rotate the first wheel and the second wheel with respect to the second rotation axis, and to shift the first wheel and the second wheel in a direction from a first position to a second position to increase a size of a wheel base of the robot.

Abstract: A robot cleaner is disclosed. The robot cleaner includes a driving device, an obstacle clearing device for clearing an obstacle on a driving route, a memory storing a map of a cleaning area and an obstacle category, and a processor controlling the driving device so that the robot cleaner drives in the cleaning area, wherein the processor may, while the robot cleaner is driving in the cleaning area, control the obstacle clearing device to take a motion corresponding to the obstacle category by an obstacle detected by a sensor.
