Robot gesture recognition method and device and robot system

Abstract

The invention provides a robot system provided with a gesture recognition device. The gesture recognition device at least comprises a database for storing information, an image acquisition module, a hand recognition module, a gesture command recognition module and a central control module, wherein the image acquisition module is used for acquiring image information containing gesture information and sending the image information to the hand recognition module; the hand recognition module is used for receiving the image information sent by the image acquisition module and recognizing a hand area in the image information; the gesture command recognition module is used for tracing the hand area and recognizing a gesture command in the hand area according to the information stored in the database; the central control module is used for sending control information to a robot according to the gesture command transmitted by the gesture command recognition module. The robot system further comprises a central controller and an action executing mechanism, wherein the central controller is used for receiving the gesture command information sent by the gesture recognition device and generating an action control command according to the information; the action executing mechanism is used for acting according to the action control command sent by the central controller and performing actions according to the gesture command.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of robots, in particular to a gesture recognition method and device for a robot. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of science and technology, in order to reduce costs and improve work efficiency, robots are fully applied in production and use in various fields. Robots currently put into production and life are mainly divided into industrial robots and special robots. The so-called industrial robots are multi-joint manipulators or multi-degree-of-freedom robots that are mainly used in the industrial field for In addition to robots, various advanced robots used in non-manufacturing and serving human beings include: service robots, underwater robots, entertainment robots, military robots, agricultural robots, etc. All kinds of household robots widely used at present have basically realized functions such as children's education, walking control, and practical tools for life. In terms of ...

Problems solved by technology

This human-computer interaction method mainly depends on the user's voice input, which has certain requirements for voice input. In view of the difference in language and the difference in the intonation of the user's voice, the efficiency of use will be reduced during the interaction process. And sometimes it needs to be re-entered, resulting in unfriendly interaction process, single function, and cumbersome operation
