forward follower

Abstract

The present invention is a forward following device and its following control method. The forward following device includes: a mobile carrier and a remote control device; the mobile carrier is provided with a forward support and a drive unit, wherein: the forward support is provided with There are first and second infrared receivers for detecting left and right movements and a first ultrasonic detector for detecting forward distance; the remote control device is provided with at least one infrared transmitter, which can communicate with the first and second infrared receivers Signal matching; when the user is in front of the mobile vehicle, the first ultrasonic detector can be used as the distance detection between the user and the mobile vehicle; if the user is in front of the mobile vehicle, go to the left or right When turning, the first and second infrared receivers can be used as the detection of the user's turning to the left or right, so as to form a full-effect intelligent and humanized following device.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a forward following device, in particular, it refers to a fully effective forward following device that allows the user to go straight forward or move left and right, so that the following device has an all-round intelligent following function. Background technique [0002] Nowadays, automatic control machines (such as robots) have been widely used in the industrial field to replace or assist human work. The main reason is that automatic control machines can perform other types of work that are dangerous, precise or heavy, such as: military Fields, search and rescue, electronics manufacturing and automobile industries, etc., have widely used automatic control machines to replace or assist human work. [0003] However, with the development of technology and technology, automatic control machines are gradually used in human daily life, such as: automatic vacuum cleaners that can help clean the floor, or wired or wireless ...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, with the development of technology and technology, automatic control machines are gradually used in human daily life, such as: automatic vacuum cleaners that can help clean the floor, or wired or wireless automatic carrier devices that can help carry items; As far as the various automatic carrier devices are concerned, the control method must be used in a predetermined environmental space, and an induction track must be preset on the ground in the predetermined space environment, and then detected by the automatic carrier device Only the preset induction track can move according to the preset path of the induction track. Therefore, this type of automatic carrier device can only be used in factories or specific places, and its main appeal and application is purely for automatic transportation of items.

[0004] For this reason, the more advanced technology at present has developed an automatic vehicle that can follow human beings. The homogenization of this kind of automatic vehicle is to use the ultrasonic sensor as a distance detection, so as to use the ultrasonic sensor to detect , which can keep the distance between the user and the automatic vehicle at a certain distance, so as to follow the user's rear; analysis of this type of unique automatic vehicle is only based on a simple ultrasonic sensor. distance detection between the user and the automatic vehicle; therefore, in practical application, this type of automatic vehicle will be completely limited to detect and follow the user only in the forward direction; especially--- Due to the slow response speed of these automatic vehicles, and when the user is in the left or right direction of the automatic vehicle, this kind of automatic vehicle cannot achieve the following ability, nor can it obtain the vehicle's information in the left or right way. control; therefore, this kind of automatic vehicle is still reduced to a non-intelligent technical solution that is not conducive to use and application
