Camera configuration method and device

Abstract

The embodiment of the present application discloses a camera configuration method and a camera configuration device. In a multi-camera robot, a current picture of a camera and a position list of the robot are displayed to a user according to the method, and the position list comprises position information of a mounting portion of the camera arranged in the robot; a correspondence between the camera and the mounting portion is set and saved according to the mounting portion selected via the user from the preset position list; after the robot is restarted, the position information of the camerais configured according to the correspondence. By applying the technical scheme proposed in the embodiment of the present application, the mounting position of the camera can be known in advance so asto solve the problem that the camera mounting position cannot be conveniently configured in the multi-camera system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of robots, in particular to a camera configuration method. The present invention also designs a camera configuration device at the same time. Background technique [0002] A robot is a machine device that performs work automatically. It can accept human command, run pre-programmed programs, and act according to principles formulated with artificial intelligence technology. Its mission is to assist or replace human work in jobs such as manufacturing, construction, or hazardous jobs. With the continuous development of science and technology, robots play an important role in various fields, and people are also improving robots in various ways. [0003] At present, robots generally collect external environmental information through cameras installed on various parts of their bodies. A robot may have multiple cameras, such as figure 1 As shown in FIG. 2 , it is a schematic diagram of a robot provided with mu...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] In the process of realizing the present invention, the inventor found that among the two different types of cameras currently installed on the robot, the USB is usually extended using a USB hub, while the network camera is through the network port, and technicians cannot check the installation position from the hardware. In other words, the robot can detect all the cameras after it is started, but it cannot know the location of each camera in advance, requiring technicians to manually configure them one by one, which puts a huge burden on the assembly and maintenance work of technicians
