Embodiment Construction

[0045] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific examples.

[0046] The humanoid manipulator control method based on the Kinect sensor provided by the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0047] 1) Collect data through Kinect for XBOX360 sensor, including the following steps:

[0048] 1.1) Fix the Kinect sensor on the bracket or place it on the desktop. The operator faces the Kinect sensor and keeps a distance from Kinect within 0.8 meters to 4 meters during operation. In order to obtain better results, preferably, keep the distance In the range of 1 meter to 2 meters, the image resolution is 640×480. Turn on the sensor and acquire data at a rate of 30 frames / s.

[0049] 1.2) Each pixel of the depth image collected by Kinect occupies 2 bytes. The high 13 bits represent the distance (unit: mm) from the Kinect infrared camera to the nearest object, and the low three bits represent the user index number, so step 1.1) to get...

Abstract

The invention discloses a humanoid mechanical arm control method based on a Kinect sensor. The method comprises the first step of collecting data through the Kinect sensor; the second step of preprocessing the collected data, and then using relevant algorithms to conduct gesture segmentation; the third step of using a DBN neural network to conduct gesture recognition; the fourth step of converting recognized gestures into instructions in a fixed format; the fifth step of using a TCP protocol to conduct telecommunication, and then sending the instructions to a server side; the sixth step of making the server side receive and recognize the instructions, and obtaining a control parameter through kinematics calculation; the seventh step of making the server side control motions of a mechanical arm according to the control parameter. According to the humanoid mechanical arm control method based on the Kinect sensor, the requirements in the aspects of cost and accuracy in actual operation, response speed and the like are considered, the problems that a data glove is high in control cost, and the traditional human-computer interactive modes based on keyboards and the like have certain requirements on specialized knowledge are solved, and the humanoid mechanical arm control method has the advantages that the operation is humanized, the response speed is high, the accuracy is high, and the humanoid mechanical arm control method has very good robustness.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of human-computer interaction, in particular to a control method for a humanoid manipulator based on a Kinect sensor. Background technique [0002] With the development of robotics, the application fields of robots are constantly expanding, and the complexity of the tasks and environments of robot operations is increasing. And the requirements of fine operation tasks. Since most end grippers are designed for specific tasks, there are limitations such as lack of flexibility and limited gripping methods. It has become a demand in the field of robotics to develop a general-purpose end gripper to replace various specific end grippers to complete dexterous manipulation tasks in various environments. Since the humanoid manipulator has multiple fingers and palms like a human hand, it has strong functions and high versatility. Therefore, it can completely replace the human hand to complete various complex and dexterous oper...
