The alighting information may indicate whether a passenger has alighted from the vehicle 10 . Getting off information may be obtained through an image obtained by a camera or the like. When a screen with an empty seat is detected in the image, it may be determined that the passenger has alighted.

Referring to FIG. 33 , the step of selecting the cleaning area based on the disembarkation information according to the present specification (S220) includes sensing whether or not the passenger gets off (S221), and receiving the seat information of the disembarked passenger (S222). and selecting an area to be cleaned based on the received seat information ( S223 ).

In this case, the seat information may refer to information on which seat corresponds to the seat where the passenger sat. The seat information may be obtained by retrieving information about a seat allocated to which the passenger sits. In addition, the seat information may be obtained by directly sensing the seat from which the passenger got off through a camera or the like.

According to FIG. 34 , the step (S240) of setting the cleaning intensity of the selected at least one cleaning head 500 according to the present specification includes the step of receiving the pre-sensed behavior data of the passenger (S241), the received behavior data It may include a step of classifying according to a preset table (S242) and a step of selecting a cleaning intensity based on the classified behavior data (S243).

The behavior data may be information detected through a camera or the like on what kind of behavior the passenger performs in the vehicle 10 . The camera may capture an image of a passenger's behavior inside the vehicle 10 and recognize the passenger's behavior from the captured image to obtain behavior data.

The preset table classifies the obtained behavior data according to the table, and when the behavior data is classified as food intake, the inside of the vehicle 10 may be cleaned by increasing the cleaning intensity. Accordingly, the table may be set in advance so that the behavior data can be classified into food intake, breaking clothes or shoes, and throwing garbage.

35, the cleaning method according to the present specification includes the steps of waiting while the passenger uses the vehicle 10 (S1100), sensing whether the passenger gets off (S1200), and obtaining seat information from which the passenger got off Step (S1300), receiving the behavior data of the disembarked passengers (S1400), selecting a cleaning course according to the behavior data (S1500), activating the steam cleaning function according to the behavior data (S1600), the selected cleaning course It may include a step (S1700) of driving the cleaning device according to the method and a step (S1800) of transmitting cleaning details to the cloud after cleaning is completed.

The step (S1500) of selecting a cleaning course according to the behavior data includes searching whether the behavior data includes a food intake behavior, and when the behavior data includes a food intake behavior, the suction motor MT can be strongly operated. and selecting a cleaning course.

In addition, the step of selecting a cleaning course according to the behavior data ( S1500 ) includes searching whether the behavior data includes a food intake behavior, and when the behavior data includes a food intake behavior, a cleaning course with a high mopping frequency of the mopping head It may further include the step of selecting

In addition, the step of activating the steam cleaning function according to the behavior data (S1600) is to search whether the behavior data includes a drink intake behavior, and select a cleaning course including a steam cleaning function when the behavior data includes a drink intake behavior may include steps.

Referring to FIG. 36, the step of driving the cleaning device according to the selected cleaning course according to the present specification (S1700) includes the step of advancing the cleaning head 500 while driving the cleaning head 500 according to the cleaning course (S1710); Sensing whether the cleaning head 500 has reached the maximum moving distance (S1720), when the cleaning head 500 has reached the maximum moving distance, stop advancing of the cleaning head 500 and return the cleaning head 500 to its original position It may include a step of returning to (S1780).

Referring to FIG. 36 , the step of driving the cleaning device according to the selected cleaning course according to the present specification ( S1700 ) includes sensing whether the steam function of the cleaning head 500 is activated ( S1780 ), when the steam function is activated It may further include the step of replacing the steam roller (S1791). After replacing the roller of the cleaning head 500 with the steam roller, the steps after S1710 may be repeated again. However, when the steam function of the cleaning head 500 is inactivated, the operation of the cleaning device may be terminated ( S1790 ).

When the steam function is activated, the step (S1791) of replacing the steam roller with the steam roller may be manually replaced by the user, but may be automatically replaced by the roller replacement device when the cleaning head 500 reaches the original position. This may utilize known techniques.

Referring to FIG. 36, the step of driving the cleaning device according to the selected cleaning course according to the present specification (S1700), the step of sensing whether the cleaning head 500 has reached the maximum moving distance (S1720), the cleaning head 500 If the maximum movement distance is not reached, the step of detecting a front obstacle by using an obstacle sensor to advance the cleaning head 500 (S1730), the step of sensing the height of the front obstacle (S1740), the height of the front obstacle When it is greater than N cm, the method may further include measuring the dust concentration through the dust sensor (S1750) and adjusting the suction intensity according to the dust concentration (S1760).

In this case, in the step of sensing the height of the front obstacle ( S1740 ), not only the height of the front obstacle but also the width and width may be sensed together. This is to determine whether the cleaning head 500 can suck the front obstacle or pass when moving. If the height of the front obstacle is greater than N cm, the forward obstacle cannot be sucked in or over when moving, so the forward movement must be terminated.

That is, N cm is a reference size, and may be a preset value as a maximum size of a foreign material that the cleaning head 500 can absorb or a maximum height that the cleaning head 500 can pass when moving.

In addition, the step (S1700) of driving the cleaning device according to the selected cleaning course according to the present specification may further include sensing a repulsive force transmitted to the mopping head when a cleaning course for moping using a pad is selected. In addition, the step of sensing the repulsive force transmitted to the mopping head may replace the step ( S1730 ) of detecting the front obstacle through the obstacle sensor.

The sensing of the repulsive force transmitted to the mopping head may include determining that an object is positioned in front of the moping head and the moping head cannot continue to advance when the repulsive force transmitted to the mopping head is higher than a reference value. Accordingly, the mopping head may further include a pressure sensor to sense the repulsive force.

As such, it is possible to determine whether the cleaning head moves forward by using the sensing value of the sensor, thereby minimizing the occurrence of a failure of the cleaning head.
