Embodiment 1

[0057] This embodiment discloses a multi-sensor based robotic arm for grabbing slides, one or more laser sensors and a vision sensor are installed at the end of the mechanical arm, the one or more laser sensors and The vision sensors all send the collected signals to the central processing unit, and the central processing unit analyzes the path of the manipulator based on the above signals, generates control signals and sends them to the controller, so as to control the movement of the manipulator according to the planned path.

[0058]If there is only one laser sensor, it should be located directly above or directly below the visual sensor, and as close as possible to the visual sensor; Above or directly below, as close as possible to the vision sensor, to ensure that the distance measured by the laser sensor to the obstacle in front is approximately equal to the distance to the obstacle in the image acquired by the vision sensor, what you see is what you get.

Abstract

The invention discloses a mechanical arm obstacle avoidance method based on multiple sensors and a mechanical arm. The method comprises the steps that the surrounding information of an target object is obtained on the basis of one or more laser sensors and visual sensors; whether an obstacle exists between the tail end of the mechanical arm and the target object is judged; if the obstacle exists,the position of the obstacle is primarily positioned on the basis of image information; the actual distance information of the tail end of the mechanical arm and the obstacle is collected through theone or more laser sensors; a raster map is built according to the primary positioning result and the actual distance information collected by the laser sensors; and on the basis of the raster map, a path is planned through a method for combining manual potential field and a rapid exploring random tree, and the mechanical arm is controlled to get close to the target object. The obstacle in the environment is detected through combination of the visual sensors and the laser sensors, and the obstacle avoidance precision is high.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of mechanical arm motion planning, and in particular relates to a multi-sensor based obstacle avoidance method for a mechanical arm and a mechanical arm. Background technique [0002] The mechanical arm is the most widely used automation device in the field of robotics. In the traditional production process, the grasping, handling, and installation of the workpiece are all done manually. The production efficiency is low, the work is dangerous, and the labor cost is high. High strength, high turnover rate of operators. In order to solve the above problems, in the prior art, a mechanical arm is used to complete the above operations. The motion planning of the manipulator means that in an environment with obstacles, the manipulator finds a collision-free trajectory from the initial state to the final state according to a given method. Therefore, the robotic arm may encounter obstacles during its movement. At...
