1. A robot, comprising:
a main body including a handle;
a driving unit configured to move the main body;
a sensing unit configured to sense at least one of state information of the main body, the sensing unit comprising:
a contact sensor configured to sense a gripped state of the handle; and
a tilt sensor configured to sense a posture of the main body;
a communication unit configured to communicate with a communication target element of the robot;
an output unit configured to display a control screen of the robot; and
a controller configured to:
determine position information of the main body based on at least one of a result of sensing by the sensing unit or a result of communication by the communication unit,
control the driving unit such that the main body travels in a travel area, detect whether a theft of the robot has occurred when an anti-theft mode is set based on the state information of the main body sensed by the sensing unit and the position information, and
control at least one of the driving unit, the communication unit, or the output unit to restrict operation of the robot when the theft of the robot is detected,
wherein the tilt sensor senses a change in the posture of the main body,
wherein the controller is configured to:
determine whether the robot is outside of the travel area based on a comparison of predetermined criteria with state information of the main body sensed by the sensing unit, and the position information, and use the result of the comparison and the position information to detect the theft of the robot,
determine that the theft has occurred when the state information of the main body sensed by the sensing unit corresponds to the predetermined criteria, and the position information is outside of the travel area, and
control the output unit to display an input screen for requesting an input of a preset usage code after detecting the theft, and determine whether to control the driving unit, the communication unit, and the output unit to restrict operation of the robot depending on a usage code entered through the input screen,
wherein the input screen is displayed on the output unit after a theft occurrence is detected and before power supplied to the driving unit and the output unit is cut off, and
wherein the controller is configured to:
determine that the robot is not stolen when the usage code entered through the input screen matches the preset usage code, and maintain the power supplied to the driving unit and the output unit when the robot is not stolen, and
determine that the robot is stolen when the usage code is entered incorrectly a predetermined number of times, and cut off the power supplied to the driving unit and the output unit when the robot is stolen.
