Embodiment Construction

[0036] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described here are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0037] figure 1Shown is a mobile robot applying the present invention, which has a self-propelled unit 1 , a communication unit and a working device 2 . In order to realize the control of the mobile robot, the present invention also arranges an image acquisition device 4 above the working area 3 to constitute a control system for the mobile robot. Wherein, the mobile robot may be a lawn mowing robot or other robots with self-propelled function for outdoor environments. The mowing robot can also be provided with a map construction unit and a path planning unit, which is used to construct the map of the working area of ​​the mowing robot according to the image of the...

Abstract

The invention discloses a boundary generation method and system for a mobile robot. According to the invention, the global video image data of the working area is acquired through the image acquisition device arranged above the working area; By selecting and identifying pixel points in an image, especially by clicking or drawing the working area range of the automatic walking device in a picture and automatically identifying the mobile robot in the image, selection of the boundary of the working area of the mobile robot and generation of the boundary of the mobile robot are realized. Therefore, effective positioning of the mobile robot and construction of a working area map can be automatically realized in an open environment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of mobile robots, in particular to a method and system for generating a boundary of a mobile robot. Background technique [0002] With the continuous improvement of artificial intelligence technology, mobile robots have begun to develop toward autonomy and intelligence. Relying on the data of sensors such as GPS, lidar, camera, and ultrasonic, some indoor service / sweeping robots with mobile functions can already realize self-positioning in a specific area and the construction of a map of the working area. [0003] The identification of the mobile robot's own boundary and its working area boundary is the basis for realizing its out-of-bounds judgment and self-propelled control. However, in outdoor or relatively open areas, due to the lack of feature points that can be used for positioning in the area, or due to problems such as weak positioning signals in the area, it is difficult to ensure that the robot can recogniz...
