Problems solved by technology

At present, the existing robot following methods and / or systems mainly use a single sensor, and the acquisition method of the target object is relatively single, and the algorithm for identifying the following target also has defects, which makes the following vulnerable to the influence of disturbances in the environment, so there is a problem of easy tracking. Technical defects of wrong target or missing target

Embodiment Construction

[0029] The application will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0030] figure 1 A flow chart of a method for a robot following a target object is shown according to one aspect of the present application. Wherein, the method includes step S11, step S12, step S13 and step S14.

[0031] Wherein, in step S11, the target object to be followed by the robot is determined; here, firstly, the scanning device scans the environment information around the robot, wherein the scanning device includes but not limited to laser sensors, cameras, depth cameras, etc., and various devices can Install on one or more parts of the robot as needed. The result of scanning is the raw data of environmental information, which can be images, pictures or point clouds. Then, the object type to be followed is detected from the environment information, and there may be one or more objects belonging to the object type in the environment. Among them, the class...

Abstract

The invention aims to provide a robot tracking method and equipment for robot tracking. The method comprises the following steps: determining a target object to be followed by a robot; identifying the target object from a scene which is captured by the robot in real time; determining a moving path of the robot toward the target object; and controlling the robot to move according to the moving path. Compared with the prior art, the method has the advantages that when the target object is identified, the identification accuracy is improved by simultaneously utilizing the characteristic information of the target object and other objects in the environment, so that the target object can be accurately identified in a natural environment with real-time variation and more interference factors; meanwhile, an optimized path is planned according to the target position and barrier information, and the moving speed and direction of the robot can be accurately controlled to track the target, so that the technical problem of wrong tracking target or missed tracking target often happening in current robot tracking can be effectively solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of robots, and in particular relates to a robot following method and equipment used for robot following. Background technique [0002] Moving object following, especially target person following, is a hot issue in the field of human-computer interaction research. It not only has a wide range of application requirements in the field of robotics, such as robotic wheelchairs that assist the disabled and patients to move, and carry heavy luggage behind the owner. It is also widely used in the fields of intelligent transportation, human behavior recognition, intelligent monitoring system and military reconnaissance. [0003] The following process often occurs in a relatively complex natural environment, which includes target objects, non-target objects, and static or dynamic obstacles. Therefore, the robot needs to be able to recognize the target object in real time in a multi-interference natural environment and be able t...
