Abstract

The invention belongs to an underwater navigation and delivery vehicle, and in particular relates to an autonomous underwater robot which adopts a simultaneous positioning and map establishing method. The autonomous underwater robot takes a scanning and imaging sonar as a main sensor and simultaneous positioning and map establishing as a main method, and can complete autonomous navigation in a complex submarine environment. The autonomous underwater robot comprises a main computer subsystem, a data acquisition subsystem, a power supply subsystem, an inertial navigation subsystem, an under-deck parameter detection subsystem, a propeller control subsystem, an external sensor subsystem, a redundant self-rescue subsystem and a distress alarm subsystem, wherein the power supply subsystem comprises a main power supply subsystem and a spare power supply subsystem; and the data acquisition subsystem is communicated with the main computer subsystem through the Ethernet in the aspect of upward communication, and communicated with other subsystems through a CAN bus in the aspect of downward communication. The autonomous underwater robot is particularly suitable for the unknown complex submarine environment, and has low manufacturing cost and low operating cost at sea, and good reliability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to an underwater navigation and delivery tool, in particular to an autonomous underwater robot using simultaneous positioning and map building methods. Background technique [0002] Inertial navigation is the main positioning method used by autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) for autonomous navigation underwater, but its main problem is that when the accuracy can meet the requirements, the price is often too expensive. With the advancement of sonar technology, currently more advanced AUVs basically do not use accelerometers but Doppler velocimeters, which can directly measure the 3D velocity of AUV relative to the seabed without integration. The navigation method combining Doppler speedometer and fiber optic gyroscope still inevitably produces cumulative errors. In order to eliminate this deviation, the main methods currently used are: (1) Use GPS correction, that is, let the AUV be on its way Float up at a series of positions, ...
