Abstract
A robot is provided. The robot includes a driving part, a three dimensional (3D) depth sensor, a memory storing instructions, and a processor connected to the driving part, the 3D depth sensor, and the memory. The processor is configured to execute the instructions to acquire a depth image of a driving surface photographed by the 3D depth sensor while the robot is driving in a space, acquire, based on the acquired depth image, location information of a boundary area where tilt information of the driving surface is changed, acquire type information corresponding to an outside area of the boundary area based on the acquired location information of the boundary area and the changed tilt information, and control the driving part based on the acquired type information.
