Abstract

A robot cleaner for recognizing a stuck situation through artificial intelligence includes a driving unit to drive the robot cleaner, a sensing unit configured to acquire three-dimensional (3D) image data and a bumper event, a memory configured to store a stuck situation recognition model for inferring the stuck situation of the robot cleaner, and a processor configured to convert the 3D image data and the bumper event into surrounding map image data, infer the stuck situation of the robot cleaner from the 3D image data and the bumper event using the stuck situation recognition model, and control the driving unit according to an inference result.
