Indoor positioning navigation system and navigation method for unmanned forklift

Abstract

The invention discloses an indoor positioning navigation system and navigation method for an unmanned forklift. The system comprises a sensor module, multiple UWB (Ultra-wide Bandwidth) positioning base stations, a marker and a server, wherein the sensor module comprises a UWB positioning label and an image collection module; the UWB positioning label transmits a pulse signal; the image collectionmodule collects a real-time image; the multiple UWB positioning base stations communicate with the UWB positioning label and receives a pulse signal of the UWB positioning label; the marker is laid on a designated position of an indoor ground; the server is in communication connection with the image collection module and the UWB positioning base stations; positioning information is obtained by use of data of the UWB positioning base stations; and positioning adjustment data are obtained by use of the position information of the marker. A UWB positioning navigation technology is adopted by theindoor positioning navigation system for the unmanned forklift disclosed by the invention so that the working environment of the unmanned forklift is not influenced by illumination and brightness, and he signal strength is high, and navigation positioning precision is provided; by laying the marker on the ground, UWB positioning accumulative errors are corrected in time and eliminated to implement accurate positioning.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of forklift navigation, and more specifically relates to an indoor positioning and navigation system and a navigation method for an unmanned forklift. Background technique [0002] Forklifts are industrial handling vehicles, which are used for loading and unloading, stacking and short-distance transportation of palletized goods. They are often used for the transportation of large objects in storage, and are widely used in cargo handling and loading and unloading in cabins, carriages, and warehouses. It can be seen that the indoor environment is one of the main working scenarios of forklifts. In recent years, intelligent unmanned forklifts have been widely used in indoor environments. Accurate positioning and navigation of forklifts is the basis and crucial to ensure unmanned and intelligent indoor forklift operations. However, in the indoor environment, the current positioning accuracy of unmanned forklifts...
