Abstract

The invention discloses a machine vision and inertial navigation fusion-based mobile robot motion attitude estimation method which comprises the following steps of: synchronously acquiring a mobile robot binocular camera image and triaxial inertial navigation data; distilling front/back frame image characteristics and matching estimation motion attitude; computing a pitch angle and a roll angle by inertial navigation; building a kalman filter model to estimate to fuse vision and inertial navigation attitude; adaptively adjusting a filter parameter according to estimation variance; and carrying out accumulated dead reckoning of attitude correction. According to the method, a real-time expanding kalman filter attitude estimation model is provided, the combination of inertial navigation and gravity acceleration direction is taken as supplement, three-direction attitude estimation of a visual speedometer is decoupled, and the accumulated error of the attitude estimation is corrected; and the filter parameter is adjusted by fuzzy logic according to motion state, the self-adaptive filtering estimation is realized, the influence of acceleration noise is reduced, and the positioning precision and robustness of the visual speedometer is effectively improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for estimating the movement attitude of a mobile robot based on machine vision and inertial navigation fusion, which is suitable for the estimation and positioning of the movement attitude of an autonomous robot. Background technique [0002] Accurate land positioning systems have important applications in the autonomous navigation of mobile robots, path planning, and terrain reconstruction. Traditional robot positioning methods include GPS, inertial navigation positioning, etc. GPS is widely used in vehicle positioning, but it cannot be used in occluded areas and indoors; inertial measurement unit (IMU) realizes dead reckoning by integrating angular velocity and linear acceleration, but it is easily affected by noise and causes "drift" in positioning results. In addition, more and more studies use visual localization methods as a supplement to traditional localization methods. For example, visual odometry (VO), by t...
