Abstract

A mapping method of a lawn mower robot may include a first image mapping operation of generating a first travel image of a three-dimensional region based on an aerial image of a work target region, a first map displaying operation of dividing the first travel image into a mowing region and an obstacle region, converting the first travel image into a first travel map, and displaying the first travel map. The mapping method may include a first anchor displaying operation of recommending the number and installation locations of anchors on the first travel map, an anchor location determination operation of determining whether the anchors are installed at the installation locations, and a path generation operation of generating a travel path of the lawn mower robot on the first travel map. The mapping method may improve work efficiency of the lawn mower robot.
