The invention discloses a
sensing system and method for
humanoid robot joints, and belongs to the technical field of humanoid robots, the
system comprises
humanoid robot four limbs and joints, a camera, a processor and a calibration board, the joints comprise shoulder joints,
elbow joints,
wrist joints and end actuators, and / or hip joints, knee joints,
ankle joints and end actuators; the camera is composed of a binocular
camera module and a TOF module, the camera and the processor are located on joints of the
humanoid robot, and the processor calibrates the position, processes data obtained by the camera and outputs a control instruction to control the end
effector. According to the invention, environment
perception in a wider range can be realized, and the camera on the joint can freely adjust the
visual angle and direction along with the movement of the joint, so that more flexible environment
perception and operation are realized; camera
data processing and
motor control are integrated, the communication
delay between the sensor and the controller is reduced, and the response speed and the
processing efficiency of the
system are improved.
