CLEANING DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR
First Claim
1. A cleaning device comprising:
- a camera unit configured to capture images;
a cleaning unit configured to perform cleaning;
an air cleaning unit configured to perform air cleaning;
a driving unit configured to move the cleaning device; and
a processor configured to control the camera unit, the cleaning unit, the air cleaning unit, and the driving unit,wherein the processor is further configured to;
detect a user by using the camera unit,move the cleaning device from the current location to the location that exceeds a first threshold distance from the detected user if the cleaning device is in a cleaning mode,perform cleaning,move the cleaning device from the current location to the location that is within a second threshold distance from the detected user if the cleaning device is in an air cleaning mode, andperform cleaning.
