Abstract

The invention relates to a plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle task route planning method and a plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle. The method includes the following steps: 1) acquiring boundary information of a task region, and acquiring boundary lines of the task region according to the boundary information; 2) determining a task start side, and according to the boundary information of the task region, drawing a plurality of flight route line segments which are parallel with the task start side; 3) according to the task start side, determining simulation route heading direction, and performing route planning on the basis of the flight route line segments until all flight points in the task region are included, wherein the intersection points of the acquiring boundary lines and the boundary lines are the flight points. The planning method can effectively plan and scan all the flight points, so that all of the flight points are covered without missing point. The method can provide more comprehensive planning routes, and also increases accurate covering rate of the plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle during task, so that mis-spraying, wrong spraying and excessive spraying problems are reduced, and a phenomenon that the unmanned aerial vehicle flies out of the task region and bumps into obstacles can be avoided.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of drones, in particular to a plant protection drone operation route planning method and a plant protection drone. Background technique

[0002] With the development of plant protection UAV technology, more and more users have begun to use UAVs for plant protection operations, especially the use of UAVs for pesticide spraying and chemical fertilizer spraying, which has the advantages of small damage to crops, high utilization rate of pesticides, Reduce labor intensity and other advantages.

[0003] When plant protection UAVs perform plant protection operations, they usually operate according to the established flight route or the operator controls the flight of the UAV through the remote control. If the UAV is to fly according to the established flight route, route planning needs to be carried out in advance, that is, the computer software system calculates a reasonable route covering the land based on the ...
