INTELLIGENT OBSTACLE AVOIDANCE METHOD OF MOBILE ROBOT, AND MOBILE ROBOT

An intelligent obstacle avoidance method of a mobile robot, and the mobile robot. A depth information obtaining device is provided on the mobile robot in advance, and a working assembly is provided on the mobile robot. The obstacle avoidance method comprises: step 12, obtaining, by means of the depth information obtaining device, depth information of an area for working of the mobile robot, the depth information comprising depth information of a surface of said area and depth information of an obstacle, and the obstacle being located on the surface of said area in the forward direction of the mobile robot; step 14, determining a height value of the obstacle with respect to the surface of said area on the basis of the depth information; step 16, obtaining a real-time light intensity value of the mobile robot in the forward direction; and step 18, controlling, on the basis of the height value and the real-time light intensity value, the working assembly of the mobile robot to move. In this way, an obstacle avoi
