Docker container-based cloud robot navigation system and working method thereof

Abstract

The invention provides a Docker container-based cloud robot navigation system and a working method thereof. The Docker container-based cloud robot navigation system comprises a cloud control platformand a mobile robot, wherein the mobile robot comprises a first wireless transceiver, a moving body which is used for realizing the own movement, an environmental perception assembly which is used foracquiring image data of the own surrounding environment, and a data processor which is used for drawing a regional map for the image data; the cloud control platform comprises a second wireless transceiver which communicates with the first wireless transceiver, and a server host which is used for receiving acquired data of the mobile robot through the second wireless transceiver and sending a control instruction to the data processor; the server host comprises a Docker ROS container; and the data processor is used for receiving the control instruction through the first wireless transceiver. Through the cloud control platform adopting the Docker container, the system has the advantages of being high in portability, centered on applications and automatic in construction, saving bandwidth resources, reusing assemblies, sharing mirror images and using a tool ecosystem.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of cloud platform robot control, in particular to a cloud robot navigation system based on a Docker container and a working method thereof. Background technique [0002] At present, there are various navigation technologies applied to service robots, among which the most commonly used are magnetic navigation, inertial navigation, sensor navigation, satellite navigation, and visual navigation. [0003] Magnetic navigation: The magnetic navigation of the robot is mainly realized in the following ways. A structure capable of generating a magnetic field (such as an energized wire or a magnet) is buried under the driving route, and the magnetic field is detected by the magnetic sensor installed on the robot, and the robot is guided to navigate according to the predetermined track. . [0004] Inertial navigation: Inertial navigation was initially mainly used in the aerospace field. The navigation system is divided into two...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0009] Magnetic navigation: poor variability and maintenance, unable to achieve obstacle avoidance movement;

[0010] Inertial navigation: As the distance increases, errors will accumulate, resulting in a decrease in accuracy;

[0011] Sensor navigation: interfere with each other, can not be well identified, absorbing or transparent obstacles;

[0012] Satellite navigation: low positioning accuracy, unable to carry out indoor navigation;

[0013] Visual navigation: large amount of calculation, low accuracy at long distances
