Robot system and control method of the same
Provided is a robot system. The robot system includes a guide rail, a slider configured to move along the guide rail, a first source disposed the slider to move together with the slider, a rotation arm configured to rotate by the first driving source, and a vehicle service robot installed the rotation arm to move by the rotation arm.
1. A method for controlling a robot system, which comprises: a driving source; a rotation arm rotating by the driving source; and a vehicle service robot installed on the rotation arm, the method comprising:
entry processing of a vehicle when the vehicle enters;
preparing charging of the vehicle;
allowing the vehicle service robot to connect a plug to a charging port of the vehicle after the rotation arm rotates by the driving source so that the vehicle service robot moves to a position adjacent to the charging port of the vehicle in a state of holding a plug of a charger; and
charging the vehicle,
wherein the entry processing of the vehicle comprises:
allowing a vision sensor to sense a license plate of the vehicle;
confirming a position of the charging port of the vehicle according to the license plate;
determining a charging service robot for servicing the vehicle of which the license plate is sensed among a plurality of charging service robots; and
guiding the vehicle to a parking area corresponding to the determined charging service robot.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the preparing charging of the vehicle comprises:
allowing a customer to pay a service cost; and
allowing the vehicle to be standby for charging after a payment of the service cost.
3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the allowing the vehicle to be standby comprises:
allowing the vision sensor to re-sense the license plate of the vehicle; and
confirming whether the license plate recognized in the entry processing of the vehicle is the same.
4. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the allowing the vehicle to be standby comprises:
allowing at least one of the vision sensor or an ultrasonic sensor to sense whether the vehicle gets out of a parking area,
allowing the vision sensor to sense start-off of the vehicle, door opening of the vehicle, and getting off of the customer;
allowing the vision sensor to sense whether a nearby object to approaches the vehicle, the vehicle service robot, or the charger; or
generating an announcement for limiting riding or getting off of the customer.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the allowing the vehicle service robot to connect a plug to a charging port comprises:
allowing a vision camera to recognize a position of a port cover;
allowing the vision camera to approach surroundings of the recognized position and sense a type of port cover, and allowing the vehicle service robot to open the port cover; and
allowing the vehicle service robot to connect the plug to the charging port,
wherein, when the plug is connected to the charging port, a position, force, and rigidity of the plug are controlled.
6. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising separating the plug from the charging port of the vehicle,
wherein the separating of the plug comprises:
allowing the vehicle service robot to separate the plug from the charging port when the charger receives a charging completion signal from the robot; and
allowing the vehicle service robot to move so that the plug returns to the charger.
7. The method according to claim 6 , further comprising:
preparing exiting of the vehicle; and
processing the exiting of the vehicle,
wherein the preparing of the exiting of the vehicle comprises:
allowing a vision sensor to sense a closed state of a port cover that covers the charging port;
allowing the vision sensor to inform an opened state of the port cover when the port cover is in the opened state; and
allowing the vision sensor to sense surroundings or a vehicle state,
wherein preparing exiting of the vehicle comprises:
resetting the vehicle service robot; and
informing charging completion to a customer.
