Embodiment Construction

[0036] The specific steps of the multi-key frame collaborative ground target positioning method based on the monocular SLAM of the unmanned aerial vehicle platform of the present invention are as follows:

[0037] 1. Calibration of the internal parameters of the monocular camera.

[0038] Zhang's calibration method: adjust the calibration board, continuously collect 20 images, perform corner detection, calculate the homography transformation H between the image and the checkerboard, and use the geometric relationship of the checkerboard to establish the correspondence of each corner in each view image Relationship, the spatial coordinates of all corner points on the checkerboard satisfy the coplanar constraint, assuming that its Z coordinate is 0, the homography is calculated:

[0039]

[0040] Among them, u, v are the pixel coordinates of the corner points, and X, Y are the spatial coordinates of the corner points on the checkerboard. Decompose H as follows:

[0041] H=s...

Abstract

The Invention discloses a monocular SLAM-based multi-keyframe cooperation ground target positioning method of an unmanned aerial vehicle platform, and is used for solving the technical problem that positioning accuracy of an existing target positioning method is low. The technical scheme is as follows: first an unmanned aerial vehicle and a monocular camera embedded therein are used as an acquisition platform of data, then combined with a vision ORB-SLAM algorithm, multi-keyframe selection and pose resolving are completed, since ORB-SLAM can obtain the precise pose of the camera in real time, the characteristics of fast speed and high precision are achieved compared with plane solving through static scene three-dimensional points, and finally, a projection reconstruction theory is utilized to solve three-dimensional coordinates of a target through a multi-keyframe cooperation method. The method is suitable for various complex environments, and has relatively high measurement accuracy. Through testing, the method provided by the invention has centimeter-level positioning accuracy indoors, and has a 20-meter flight height positioning error of smaller than 0.3m outdoors.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a target positioning method, in particular to a multi-keyframe collaborative ground target positioning method based on monocular SLAM for an unmanned aerial vehicle platform. Background technique [0002] The UAV earth observation system has developed rapidly in earth observation due to its notable characteristics such as low cost, simple operation, quick deployment and strong mobility. The precise spatial positioning of the target can effectively obtain the three-dimensional coordinates of the target space, so it has broad application prospects in the fields of disaster reconnaissance, military defense, and civilian production. [0003] The document "A localization method of UAV flying around for ground moving target. The National Conference on Experimental Mechanics. 2012." proposed a ground scene information-assisted monocular positioning method for moving targets. The method first uses the UAV to fly around the tar...
