Abstract
The present disclosure provides a movement control method for a robot as well as an apparatus and a robot using the same. The method includes: obtaining a starting position and an ending position of the robot, in response to a movement instruction being detected; determining a movement path of the robot based on the starting position and the ending position; obtaining pass qualification information of the robot, if the movement path intersects a line corresponding to a preset virtual wall; and moving the robot to the ending position according to the movement path, if the pass qualification information identifying the robot is allowed to traverse the virtual wall. By obtaining the pass qualification information, the robot can return to the working area from the non-working area in the case of an abnormality, while ensuring that the robot does not actively traverse from the working area to the non-working area.
