1. A remote control apparatus for remotely controlling a moving robot, the apparatus comprising:
- a user interface unit displaying a map associated with a traveling area of a moving robot and receiving a user command associated with an operation of the moving robot;
a processor selecting at least a part of the map as a designated area for intensive cleaning, for avoidance travel, or for escape travel, and generating a control signal for remotely controlling the moving robot by considering the received user command; and
a wireless communication unit transmitting the generated control signal to the moving robot and receiving a response signal depending on the control signal from the moving robot,wherein the processor selects an updated map transmitted from the moving robot or a previously stored map by comparing the updated map with the previously stored map, andwherein the user interface unit displays the selected map.

18. A remote control method for remotely controlling a moving robot, the method comprising:
-
creating, by the moving robot, a map by performing at least one predetermined traveling mode; receiving, by the remote control apparatus, an updated map transmitted from the moving robot; selecting, by the remote control apparatus, a previously stored map or the updated map by comparing the previously stored map and the updated map; displaying, by the remote control apparatus, the selected map; receiving, by the remote control apparatus, a user command associated with an operation of the moving robot; selecting, by the remote control apparatus, at least a part of the displayed map as a designated area for intensive cleaning, for avoidance travel, or for escape travel by considering the user command; and generating, by the remote control apparatus, a control signal for remotely controlling the moving robot. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
