Example Embodiment

[0027] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail through the drawings.

[0028] Such as figure 1 Shown is the flow of the image processing method for the centimeter-level accurate landing of the drone of the present invention.

[0029] Such as figure 2 As shown, there are four rectangles, namely the large rectangle 1, the first small rectangle 21, the second small rectangle 22, the third small rectangle 23, and the two-dimensional code 3. The target recognition pattern is a large large rectangle and three small rectangles. And a single two-dimensional code, the center of the large rectangle, the center of the three small rectangles, and the center of the two-dimensional code overlap; the color of the large rectangle and the small rectangle are different. In the present invention, the large rectangle is red, and the three small rectangles are green. The color of the red rectangle and the green rectangle is not unique, and the RGB difference between the two is ...

Abstract

The invention provides an image processing method for the centimeter-level precise landing of a UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle), and the method comprises the steps: making a target recognition pattern,enabling the UAV to fly to a place nearby a landing position, capturing an image, enabling a rotary PTZ camera to scan the ground surroundings if there is no target image recognized in a camera view at a current position, searching the target image, and adjusting the UAV to move above the landing point to start the form landing; recognizing the most apparent big rectangle at first in a landing process from a high place; recognizing three small rectangles again after the UAV descends to a certain height, enabling the UAV to land on the ground for recognizing a QR code at the center of the pattern best, determining the center position of the QR code after the target QR code is obtained, obtaining the horizontal distance at the centimeter-level precision, and achieving the centimeter-level precise landing. The method provided by the invention is accurate and reliable in recognition, is high in adaptability, has the centimeter-level precision, and solves the problems that a method for recognizing a QR image from a high place is limited in recognition height, is difficult to adapt to different brightness values and is weak in anti-interference capability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the UAV landing technology, in particular to an image recognition-based precise UAV landing method, in particular to an image processing method for centimeter-level precise UAV landing. Background technique [0002] The conventional method is to rely solely on GPS positioning to assist landing, but civilian GPS measurement errors range from 0.5 meters to several meters, and are easily affected by interference; further, using the current advanced RTK positioning technology to assist landing can provide the smallest centimeter-level positioning Accuracy, but the cost of equipment is expensive; therefore, the software method based on image recognition is valued, and the target image is collected through the standard camera of the drone, and image recognition is performed to provide information such as the position and angle of the target landing point. The following two patent documents are typical summaries based on current image...
