This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18128348 titled 'DRIVING ROBOT APPARATUS, CONTROLLING METHOD OF THE DRIVING ROBOT APPARATUS, AND RECORDING MEDIUM HAVING RECORDED THEREON COMPUTER PROGRAM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a driving robot apparatus and a controlling method for the apparatus.

  • The driving robot apparatus includes a processor that controls the movement of the robot.
  • The robot can change its traveling direction to align with an obstacle.
  • It has a cleaning assembly that can move a holder and extend a cleaning pad outward from the robot.
  • The robot can move along the outer edge of the obstacle while the cleaning pad cleans the surface.
  • The invention aims to provide an efficient and effective cleaning solution for obstacles encountered by the driving robot.


Original Abstract Submitted

Provided are a driving robot apparatus, a controlling method of the driving robot apparatus, and a computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a computer program. The driving robot apparatus includes at least one processor configured to control a moving assembly to change a traveling direction of the driving robot apparatus so that the driving robot apparatus is aligned with an obstacle, control a cleaning assembly to move a holder so that a cleaning pad fixed to the holder protrudes outward from the driving robot apparatus, and control the moving assembly to move the driving robot apparatus so that the cleaning pad fixed to the holder and protruding outward from the driving robot apparatus is moved along an outer edge of the obstacle.
