Embodiment Construction

[0034] When a robot walks in a complex working environment, it will be blocked by many obstacles of various shapes. The present invention uses the grid method to model the working environment of the robot to obtain a random map, such as figure 1 The grid map model diagram shown, in which the white grid is the free grid, which is the feasible area of ​​the robot, and the black grid is the obstacle grid, which is the area that the robot cannot pass. In order to describe the walking trajectory of the robot, figure 1 The medium unit grid is about the size of the robot. And code the rasters in the model from left to right and from top to bottom, and a raster represents a position node.

[0035] In the path optimization process, the ant colony algorithm is a search algorithm that simulates the behavior of ant colony foraging and finds the optimal path in a specified environment. Through research, it is found that when ants walk, they will release a special secretion - pheromone o...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for planning robot paths on the basis of path expansion ant colony algorithms. The method has the advantages that the ant colony algorithms are applied to the field of robot path planning, path expansion ant colony algorithm optimization strategies are proposed, the robot path optimizing efficiency can be optimized, information element distribution time-varying characteristics, information element updating strategies, path location inflection point optimization and local optimal path expansion are introduced, and location inflection point parameters and general evaluation are additionally used as evaluation standards for the paths; as verified by simulation analysis and practical experiments on the three algorithms, the method is high in robot path planning and searching capacity on the basis of the path expansion ant colony algorithm optimization strategies and is high in algorithm efficiency, and the found paths are short; phenomena that the algorithms run into local optimization can be effectively inhibited, the optimal paths of robots can be searched, and the robots can quickly avoid obstacles to safely arrive at target points.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a path planning technology, in particular to a robot path planning method based on path expansion ant colony algorithm. Background technique [0002] Path planning technology is an important part of the research field of mobile robots. The main purpose is to find a path from the starting position node in the environment with obstacles according to certain criteria (such as the shortest path, the least position inflection point, the shortest time, etc.). The optimal or suboptimal safe collision-free path between nodes to the target location. Path planning can be divided into global path planning with completely known environment and local path planning with completely or partially unknown environment. [0003] Many feasible algorithms have been proposed for path planning at home and abroad, mainly including visual graph method, topology method, artificial potential field method and so on. In recent years, computational intelli...
