7. A method as claimed in claim 4 or 5, wherein said controlling said pool cleaning robot from said current position to said near position based on said determined current position and near position in said pool map comprises:
and controlling the swimming pool cleaning robot to move from the current block to the side block based on the preset routing algorithm.
8. The method of claim 7, wherein the preset routing algorithm comprises an a-STAR algorithm.
9. The method of claim 1, wherein the method further comprises:
the side approaching instruction can be triggered based on a preset trigger condition;
the preset trigger condition comprises system automatic trigger or man-machine interaction input trigger meeting a preset rule.
10. The method of claim 9, wherein the system automatic triggering meeting the preset rule comprises: the swimming pool cleaning robot comprises at least one of a system automatic trigger when the swimming pool cleaning robot completes a preset work task, a system automatic trigger when the current electric quantity of the swimming pool cleaning robot is lower than a preset electric quantity threshold value, a system automatic trigger when the blockage degree of a filter basket of the swimming pool cleaning robot is detected and meets a preset blockage condition, a system automatic trigger when the swimming pool cleaning robot is detected to have an operation fault, and a system automatic trigger when the running time of the swimming pool cleaning robot is detected and meets preset time.
11. An edge control device of a swimming pool cleaning robot, comprising:
an edge position determination module, which is used for responding to the triggering of the edge instruction, and determining an edge position from each currently determined edge position of a swimming pool map according to the current position of the swimming pool cleaning robot in the swimming pool map of the swimming pool;
and the side control module is used for controlling the swimming pool cleaning robot to move from the current position to the side position according to the current position and the side position determined in the swimming pool map.
12. An electronic device, comprising:
a processor; and
a memory storing a program;
wherein the program comprises instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to carry out the method according to any one of claims 1-10.
13. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having stored thereon computer instructions for causing a computer to perform the method of any one of claims 1-10.
