ROBOT AND CONTROLLING METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18321261 titled 'ROBOT AND CONTROLLING METHOD THEREOF

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a robot that can interact with a virtual environment service through a communication interface.

• The robot has a display, memory storing its identification information, a communication interface with a server providing a virtual environment service, and at least one processor.
• When a user input is received to connect the robot to the virtual environment service, the processor transmits the robot's identification information to the server.
• The processor then controls the robot's operation based on interaction information related to an avatar corresponding to the robot's identification information received from the server.

Original Abstract Submitted

A robot is provided. The robot includes a display, a memory storing identification information of the robot, a communication interface communicating with a server providing a virtual environment service, and at least one processor configured to, based on receiving a user input for interlocking the robot with the virtual environment service, transmit the identification information of the robot stored in the memory to the server through the communication interface, and based on receiving interaction information related to an avatar corresponding to the identification information of the robot from the server through the communication interface, control an operation of the robot based on the interaction information.
