Robotic working apparatus
A robotic working apparatus includes: a working tool configured to perform work on a field; a working robot configured to perform the work while autonomously traveling on the field; and a processor configured to set a traveling route for the working robot and control motion of the working robot In a case where a first area and a second area are set on the field as working areas of the working robot, when the working robot moves from a work end point in the first area to a work start point in the second area, the processor sets a route from the work end point to a base, and a route from the base to the work start point, which are different at least in part from one another.
1 . A robotic working apparatus comprising:
a working robot having a working tool configured to perform work on a field, the working robot configured to perform the work using the working tool while autonomously traveling on the field;
a processor configured to set a traveling route for the working robot and control motion of the working robot; and
a memory configured to be able to communicate with the processor, wherein:
a first area and a second area are set on the field as working areas of the working robot, and when the working robot moves from a work end point in the first area to a work start point in the second area, the processor sets a route from the work end point in the first area to a base, and a route from the base to the work start point in the second area;
the route from the work end point in the first area to the base is different at least in part from the route from the base to the work start point in the second area;
at least one relay point is selected from a plurality of relay points;
the route between the base and the work start point in the second area includes:
a first straight line from the base to a first said selected relay point or a second selected relay point, and
at least a second straight line from the first selected relay point or a third said selected relay point to the work start point in the second area; and/or
the route between the work end point in the first area and the base includes:
a third straight line from the work end point in the first area to the first said selected relay point, and
a fourth straight line from the first said selected relay point to the base.
2 . The robotic working apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the base is a charging base for the working robot.
