Robot

摘要

A movable olfactory robot dog (1) includes an IMS unit (100) acquiring chemical substance-related information relating to chemical substances included in external air (19) respectively obtained from left and right nostrils (12L) and (12R), and an event monitoring unit (30) that determines the occurrence of an event and occurrence direction of the event relative to the robot dog (1) based on a change in the chemical substance-related information respectively acquired at the left and right nostrils (12L) and (12R).

主权项

1. A robot including a plurality of sampling points, comprising:
a detection unit that acquires chemical substance-related information relating to chemical substances included in a fluid at the plurality of sampling points, the detection unit including a sensor outputting spectral data including changes in concentration of an unspecified number of chemical substances; a communication unit that enables communication with another robot; a memory that enables storing target chemical data for a search; an event monitoring unit that determines an occurrence of an event and an occurrence direction of the event relative to the robot based on a temporal change in a chemical constituent and a temporal change in concentration of each detected chemical substance included in the spectral data of each sampling point, means for self-searching for a chemical using the target chemical data in the memory and the spectral data output by the sensor, and means for group-searching for a chemical using information transmitted via the communication unit from another robot and the spectral data output by the sensor without interrupting a process of the self-searching means.
