1. A method of controlling a robot, the method performed by the robot that travels within a space comprising:
identifying a person to be rescued, among persons within the space, by using a camera of the robot while travelling within the space;
determining a distance between the robot and the person to be rescued based on depth information that is obtained by the camera and that is associated with the person to be rescued; and
transmitting information comprising the distance to a control server for the space,
wherein the method further comprises periodically transmitting a location of the robot to the control server,
wherein the control server displays the received location of the robot in a three-dimensional (3-D) model of the space, and
further displays the person to be rescued based on the received location of the robot and the received distance, and
wherein the 3-D model constitutes digital twin content corresponding to the space, and
the digital twin content comprises at least a first 3-D object that corresponds to the robot and into which a movement of the robot is incorporated and a second 3-D object corresponding to the person to be rescued.
