WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/065701

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

[Problem] To provide an information processing device and a mobile robot capable of improving the accuracy of measuring the distance to an object by reducing effects due to a change in attitude of a mobile body. [Solution] A mobile robot 1 is provided with: a control means 2 for drive control of each part of a robot main body 1A; a detection means 3 for detecting an object around the robot main body 1A; and a movement means 4 for causing the robot main body 1A to move. The detection means 3 is provided with: a first distance sensor 31 that detects the distance to a first position P1 on a floor F forward in the moving direction D1 of the robot main body 1A; and a second distance sensor 32 that detects the distance to a second position P2. The control means 2 compares the change in the distances to the first position P1 and the second position P2, and on the basis of the comparison, distinguishes the change in distance caused by a change in the attitude of the robot main body 1A, and the change in distance caused by the shape of the floor F.
