Intelligent table tennis ball picking robot and control method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses an intelligent table tennis ball picking robot and a control method thereof and relates to the field of intelligent control functional robots. The robot has a simple structure,is reliable and durable and can accurately locate the positions of table tennis balls in a space by utilizing a binocular vision recognition and locating system, and through a combined structure of abase and a picking barrel, the robot can successfully pick up the table tennis balls at corners; the robot has an automatic obstacle avoidance function during operation, the efficiency and flexibility of picking the table tennis balls are improved, and the accuracy rate and success rate of picking the table tennis balls are increased; after partial parts are damaged, replacement is convenient, and the maintenance cost is low. In addition, the robot has the advantages of long recognition distance and high controllability; through a 20,000 mAh lithium battery arranged inside, the power consumption is low, and the standby time is long. The robot is high in intelligentization degree and has the advantages of simpler structure, lower cost and high picking efficiency in comparison with a functional robot which takes a mechanical arm as a picking device in the market. Through the design of a table tennis ball recognition model, a new thought and an innovative direction are provided for the design of follow-up table tennis ball picking robots.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of intelligent control functional robots, in particular to a table tennis intelligent picking robot and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] At present, there are many kinds of functional robots on the market. Most of the robots for picking up table tennis balls use a mechanical arm as a picking device, which has a relatively complicated structure, high cost, and low picking efficiency. Due to the complex structure, the entire robot takes up a lot of space, and it is difficult to pick up table tennis balls in some corners successfully, and some manual processing is still required. The complex mechanical arm structure is prone to failure and difficult to maintain, which greatly increases the processing cost and use cost. Contents of the invention [0003] In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides a table tennis intelligent picking robot and its contro...
