The present disclosure provides a robot, an auto-recharging method therefor and a storage medium. The auto-recharging method for a robot comprises: the robot moving from an initial position to a docking position, wherein the docking position faces a charging interface of a charging pile; the robot traveling from the docking position to a charging position along a first path such that the robot is docked to the charging pile at the charging position, wherein the first path is a straight-line or approximately straight-line path, and the robot maintains a docking pose during the course of traveling along the first path and the charging pile is identified in the images captured by the robot in real time. The present disclosure may achieve auto-recharging of the robot without guidance of active light source, thereby reducing the cost of the robot and meanwhile offering a high flexibility to the equipment.
