Positioning system and method for indoor service robot based on iBeacon

Abstract

The invention relates to an iBeacon-based indoor service robot positioning system, which includes an iBeacon base station, an indoor service robot, a host computer server and a wireless module. The iBeacon base station communicates with the service robot based on BLE technology. The main controller of the service robot is equipped with a Bluetooth module. The host computer server includes a positioning algorithm module, a task management module and a display module. The service robot and the host computer server transmit information through the wireless module. transmission. When the present invention works, the iBeacon base station sends ID information to the surroundings, the service robot receives the information transmitted by the iBeacon base station, and sends it to the host computer server, and the host computer server calculates the position of the service robot, and returns the positioning information to the service robot, realizing the robot positioning. The invention has the advantages of good system stability, low cost, easy deployment and high positioning accuracy.

Description

technical field [0001] The patent of the present invention relates to the field of an indoor service robot positioning system, in particular to an iBeacon-based indoor service robot positioning system and method. Background technique [0002] Intelligent service robot is a comprehensive system integrating environmental perception, dynamic decision-making and planning, behavior control and execution. With the continuous improvement of robot performance, the application range of service robots has been greatly expanded, and has been widely used in industry, agriculture, medical treatment, service and other industries. Among them, the autonomous positioning of indoor service robots is one of the key issues in robotics. Sensors such as sonic sensors, infrared sensors, and laser sensors are usually used to estimate the moving distance and orientation of the robot. The long-term use of these sensors will lead to error accumulation, which will reduce the positioning accuracy, and h...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Sensors such as acoustic wave sensors, infrared sensors, and laser sensors are usually used to estimate the moving distance and orientation of the robot. The long-term use of these sensors will lead to error accumulation, which in turn will reduce the positioning accuracy, and has higher requirements for the use environment.
