SWARM INTELLIGENCE-BASED MOBILE ROBOT, METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND SURVEILLANCE ROBOT SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A plurality of swarm intelligence-based mobile robots, each having multiple legs and multiple joints, the mobile robot comprising:
- an environment recognition sensor for collecting sensed data about the surrounding environment of the mobile robot;
a communication unit for performing communication with a remote controller, a parent robot managing at least one mobile robot, or the other mobile robots located within a predefined area; and
a control unit for controlling the motions of the multiple legs and multiple joints to control movement of the mobile robot to a given destination based on control data transmitted from the remote controller through the communication unit or based on communication with the other mobile robots within the predefined area or based on the sensed data collected by the environment recognition sensor.

8. A method for controlling multiple swarm intelligence-based mobile robots having multiple legs and multiple joints, the method comprising:
-
selecting at least one of the mobile robots; performing communication with the selected mobile robot; moving the selected mobile robot through the communication and collecting sensed data and/or image data about the surrounding environment of the selected mobile robot; and controlling movement of the selected mobile robot based on the sensed data and/or image data, wherein the remaining mobile robots are set to be at an autonomous driving mode and travel through communication with their neighboring mobile robots or through recognition of their surroundings based on the sensed data and/or image data. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)
