Abstract
The self-driving robot comprises: a loading box including at least one loading space; a communication circuit configured to transmit or receive a signal; an information collection device configured to detect a surrounding environment; a driving device configured to implement movement of the self-driving robot; and a processor configured to control the loading box, the communication circuit, and the information collection device, wherein the processor performs control so that the self-driving robot identifies delivery authority information and position information of an event operator, in response to detecting a delivery event while moving along a moving path, and the self-driving robot determines whether to open the loading box, on the basis of the delivery authority information and the position information.
