Problems solved by technology

Track guidance needs to lay tracks on the job site to guide the trolley. The disadvantages of this path control method are: (1) The laying of the track makes the path of the AGV trolley in the industrial job site less flexible, and the change of the processing technology requires the user to change the laid track; (2) For the complex path or cross path of multiple mobile robots, the way of laying the track cannot guide the AGV car
The visual guidance method is to use the positioning principle based on the image background to guide the car to move forward. There are deficiencies: (1)

Embodiment Construction

[0036] Below in conjunction with specific embodiment, working principle of the present invention and concrete technical scheme are described in further detail:

[0037] Indoor mobile robot applications can be summarized into two parts: localization and navigation. Positioning means that the mobile robot calculates its own plane position information S(x, y) in real time based on the ranging data of four base stations; Path information (the walking path of the robot set by the user), can automatically plan the path and control the mobile robot to move forward. At the same time, the mobile robot can automatically perform obstacle avoidance and anti-collision processing according to the current working environment

[0038] figure 1 It is a UWB-based indoor mobile robot positioning and navigation system control effect diagram, simulating a workshop with 4 production stations, and 5 mobile robots realize the automatic handling of raw materials between stations for processing.

Abstract

The invention discloses a UWB-based indoor mobile robot positioning and navigation system, including a device layer, an intermediate layer and an application layer; the device layer completes the construction of a system hardware platform, including a base station, a label, a mobile robot and a Wifi communication module, Among them, the base station and the tag realize the positioning function, and the Wifi module and the communication base station in the base station are used to connect the device layer and the middle layer to realize the upload and release of information; the middle layer includes a database, data analysis software and a server to complete data storage and forwarding, analysis and processing and remote access control functions; the application layer mainly provides a friendly remote client software interface to realize online update of mobile robot status information, completion of mobile robot path planning and generation of other related reports. The invention uses UWB technology to realize the positioning and navigation of the indoor mobile robot, and has the advantages of strong anti-interference ability and low power consumption. For other positioning technologies, using UWB signals for indoor positioning can obtain higher positioning accuracy and stability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of indoor robot communication technology and control technology, in particular to a UWB-based indoor mobile robot positioning and navigation system. Background technique [0002] With the further development of the social economy and the further improvement of the level of industrial automation, the service of mobile robots has penetrated into all aspects of social production. [0003] At present, indoor mobile robots mainly rely on AGV cars to realize. There are two main ways of AGV path control: track guidance and vision guidance. Track guidance needs to lay tracks on the job site to guide the trolley. The disadvantages of this path control method are: (1) The laying of the track makes the path of the AGV trolley in the industrial job site less flexible, and the change of the processing technology requires the user to change the laid track; (2) For the complex path or cross path of multiple mobile robots, the way ...
