1. An autonomous cleaner comprising:
- a cleaner body including a controller and a plurality of wheels;
a cleaner head provided at the cleaner body; and
a sensor assembly provided at a front of the cleaner body,wherein the sensor assembly includes a first sensor oriented in an inclined angle at an upper corner of the cleaner body to capture at least one image corresponding to a front space and an upper space in front of the cleaner body, andwherein the at least one image is divided into a first image corresponding to the front space and a second image corresponding to the upper space based on an angle of view in the vertical direction.

18. An autonomous cleaner comprising:
-
a cleaner body including a plurality of wheels and a controller that manages driving of at least one wheel to control a direction of travel; a cleaner roller attached to the cleaner body to allow cleaning of a surface below the cleaner body; and a sensor assembly having a first sensor provided at a front of the cleaner body, the first sensor being orient in an inclined angle relative to side and top surfaces of the cleaner body and positioned at an upper corner formed by the side and top surfaces of the cleaner body, wherein, based on an angle of view of the first sensor and the inclined angle of the first sensor, the sensor captures an image of a front space and an upper space, which are in front of the cleaner body, and wherein a front image corresponding to the front space is extracted from the image captured by the sensor, and when the front image is different from a stored front image captured by the first sensor at a previous time when the cleaner body was stationary, the front image is transmitted to a mobile terminal through a remote connection. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
