Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of robot visual navigation, and discloses a real-time field robot visual navigation method based on FPGA and a real-time field robot visual navigation system based on FPGA. Green crops are segmented from an acquired field image through preprocessing of the acquired field image; ridge line information in a field crop ridge line image is detected, whereinthe ridge line information comprises position information and slope of two neighboring ridge lines; navigation information of a robot is calculated and extracted through the ridge line information, and the navigation information is used for controlling walking of the robot; an image processing module, an image storage module, a field ridge line detection module and a navigation parameter extraction module are provided. Compared with the existing algorithm, average accuracy rate of the optimized algorithm is up to 89.7%; compared with a truth value, a F-score value is 91.1%, time is only 16ms,and 2824 triggers, 4625 lookup tables and 4kb registers (BRAM) are occupied; and the navigation parameter extraction module only occupies 372 triggers and 1013 lookup tables.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of machine vision navigation, in particular to an FPGA-based real-time field robot vision navigation method and system. Background technique [0002] Currently, the closest prior art: [0003] Since there are obvious differences in color between crops and non-plants such as soil and stones, most vision systems use visible light imaging to obtain segmented plant images, extract robot navigation parameters, such as navigation lines and navigation angles, and then pass them. Control the robot to walk. The navigation system based on machine vision has two branches: 1) a two-dimensional visual navigation system that uses a monocular camera to acquire images and combines image processing methods to obtain navigation parameters; 2) obtains multiple images simultaneously through two or more cameras, A three-dimensional visual navigation system that uses stereo matching method to obtain feature points and match the...

Problems solved by technology

[0015] (1) Most of the existing vision-based field ridge line detection algorithms are implemented in the case of offline and low-resolution images, which are not necessarily applicable to real-time high-resolution complex natural environment ridge line detection; so far, few Some scholars combine FPGA acceleration methods with agricultural vision image processing methods or agricultural navigation algorithms

[0016] (2) The traditional ridge line extraction methods are all offline and non-real-time, and cannot effectively control the robot's actions

[0017] (3) The main difficulty of the current field
