1. An air conditioner comprising:
a first sensor;
a storage; and
at least one processor configured to:
obtain, in a first sensing operation, first gas sensing data for determining whether an air conditioning operation is required,
identify a target space, among a plurality of spaces, for which the air conditioning operation is required, based on the first gas sensing data, and control to move the air conditioner to the target space,
obtain, in a second sensing operation, second gas sensing data for the target space,
obtain information on a gas type based on the second gas sensing data and reference data stored in the storage, and
control to perform an air conditioning operation based on the information on the gas type and context information including activity information regarding a current activity in the target space,
wherein the second gas sensing data is acquired by the first sensor comprising a plurality of sensing modules that each react to a different gas, and
wherein a power usage of the first sensor is reduced in the first sensing operation as compared to the second sensing operation.
