<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a robot cleaner which does not stop to change a traveling direction thereof and which can reduce a time required to clean a cleaning area, and a control method thereof. <P>SOLUTION: A robot cleaner sets a territory in which cleaning is performed on the basis of position data acquired while traveling a cleaning area, and presets a cleaning path to clean the territory in which the cleaning is performed. If the cleaning path includes a zigzag traveling path, the robot cleaner changes a direction thereof by executing curved traveling during traveling along the zigzag traveling path, thereby reducing a time required to clean the clearing area. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
