Abstract (en)

An apparatus and method for notifying the state of a self-moving cleaning robot using voice or a variety of melodies is provided. The self-moving state notification apparatus includes a voice notification unit (1) for outputting an audio signal notifying the operating state of the self-moving cleaning robot. The apparatus outputs voice or various melodies corresponding to states or errors of the self-moving cleaning robot while in operation, so that the user can be quickly and clearly notified of the state of the self-moving cleaning robot and thus can quickly take any necessary measures for the state, thereby ensuring that the self-moving cleaning robot operates reliably.
