9. A collision control method of a robot with an obstacle, characterized in that it comprises the steps:
-
a) at least one accelerometer (3) fixed to the robot and connected to the electronics system (1), whereupon a detected collision, sends information about a collision in a form of signals to the electronics system (1); b) the electronics system (1), whereupon a signal from an accelerometer (3), changes the robot heading direction or velocity or stops the robot. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
