1. An apparatus for detecting a slip of a robot, the apparatus comprising:
- a pattern-movement command unit to generate a pattern-movement command controlling the robot to perform consecutive motions including at least two of a uniform motion, a decelerating motion, and an accelerating motion; and
a slip detection unit to detect a slip of the robot operating according to the pattern-movement command by comparing a first acceleration measured by an acceleration sensor of the robot with a second acceleration measured by an encoder of the robot, the encoder measuring rotation of driving wheels of the robot.

Abstract
Disclosed is an apparatus and method for detecting slip of a robot. The robot periodically repeats a pattern movement in the order of a uniform motion, a decelerating motion, and an accelerating motion, or in the order of a uniform motion, an accelerating motion, and a deceleration motion. The occurrence of slip of the robot performing a pattern movement is determined by comparing a first acceleration of the robot measured by an acceleration sensor and a second acceleration of the robot measured by an encoder.
