controlling the chassis to move along a predetermined mowing path in a mowing area, and
controlling the cutting device to cut grass as the chassis moves along the mowing path;
an interruption determining procedure to be executed during the mowing procedure, and including steps of
receiving sensing data from the sensor unit, wherein the sensing data indicates a current sensing result related to at least one of surrounding environment or an operation status of the robot lawn mower, and
determining, based on the sensing data, whether an interruption condition related to at least one of an environment factor or an operation factor of the robot lawn mower is met; and
an interrupting procedure to be executed when it is determined that the interruption condition is met in the interruption determining procedure, and including steps of
controlling the cutting device to stop cutting grass, and
controlling the chassis to move to a preset standby location;
the robot lawn mower further including an image capturing unit electrically connected to the processor, wherein the mowing procedure further includes steps of:
upon determining that the chassis has completed an entire course of moving along the mowing path, controlling the chassis to move to at least one preset image-capturing location;
