Abstract

The present disclosure relates to the field of intelligent lawn mowers and logic control technologies thereof, and discloses a path planning method for an intelligent lawn mower. The path planning method includes: starting a touch panel of the intelligent lawn mower; entering a path planning setting interface, which displays a schematic diagram of a region to be mowed, a path angle indicating image and a path angle setting image; receiving a touch input of a user with respect to the path angle setting image to set a path angle; adjusting, based on the set path angle, the path angle indicating image for display; and re-planning a path of the intelligent lawn mower based on the set path angle and a preset algorithm. The present disclosure further provides a path planning system for the intelligent lawn mower.
