ABSTRACT

A robot includes: a sensor configured to detect an external environment within
a viewing zone of the a sensor; memory storing information on a travel space
including a privacy protection zone; and a processor configured to: identify
whether the viewing zone will be within a predetermined distance from the
privacy protection zone while the robot travels along a travel path in the
travel space; based on identifying that the viewing zone will be within the
predetermined distance, determine whether the viewing zone will overlap with
the privacy protection zone based on the travel path; and based on determining
that the viewing zone will overlap with the privacy protection zone, change a
heading direction of the robot from a first heading direction to a second
heading direction to prevent the viewing zone from overlapping with the
privacy protection zone.
