Vision clarifying equipment for underwater robot

Abstract

The invention discloses clarifying equipment for an underwater robot. The clarifying equipment for the underwater robot comprises a front convex hemispheroid-shaped light-transmitting cover, a middlecuboid-shaped bracket and a rear convex hemispheroid-shaped light-transmitting cover; the front light-transmitting cover is connected with the bracket through a polygonal fixing plate; the rear light-transmitting cover is connected with the bracket through a polygonal fixing plate; the bracket comprises at least four supporting rods; a filter screen is fixed on the side surface of the bracket; therear light-transmitting cover is hollow; one part, overlapped with the rear light-transmitting cover, of the fixing plate is also hollow; the front light-transmitting cover faces the exterior of thebracket; and the rear light-transmitting cover faces the interior of the bracket. According to the clarifying equipment for the underwater robot, the filter screen is arranged on the surface of the bracket and can filter impurities in the water to guarantee that the water in front of the vision is clear; during observing, the range of the whole vision is extended; and as the front light-transmitting cover can be close to a pipeline needing to be observed, a problem that observation cannot be carried out underwater from a close distance due to turbid water is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of underwater robots, and in particular relates to a clear vision device for underwater robots. Background technique [0002] The underwater robot, also known as the unmanned remote control submersible, is a kind of extreme operation robot that works underwater. The underwater environment is harsh and dangerous, and people's diving depth is limited, so underwater robots have become an important tool for developing the ocean. Underwater robots can be mainly divided into two types: cable underwater robots and cable-free underwater robots. Among them, cable underwater robots are divided into three types: underwater self-propelled, towed and crawling on seabed structures. . [0003] Underwater robots can replace manual long-term underwater operations in highly dangerous environments, polluted environments, and zero-visibility waters. Underwater robots are generally equipped with sonar systems, cameras, lights,...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, the underwater environment is easy to be complex and changeable, and it is difficult to guarantee the clarity of water quality, especially for underwater pipelines. It is almost difficult to see the inside of the pipeline underwater, which has a great impact on the collection of visual information of underwater observation equipment, which restricts artificial intelligence. , computer vision, etc.

The cameras of existing underwater robots cannot get close to the observation target, and need to keep a certain distance from the observation target to be able to observe clearly, but when the water is relatively turbid, the observation purpose cannot be achieved at a long distance
