Problems solved by technology

LiDAR-based methods can maintain good positioning in structured environments and are insensitive to high-speed motion, but they are difficult to initialize and error recovery is difficult
The current unmanned transport vehicles based on laser positioning technology often need fixed stations, initialize at the set stations and cannot flexibly start work anywhere
In addition, once its positioning occurs, due to the symmetry and similarity of the factory env

Abstract

The invention relates to a mobile robot positioning method based on visual guidance laser repositioning, and the method comprises the following steps: carrying out the initialization positioning of the position of a robot according to a visual feature map, and mapping the position of the robot to a laser map; adopting an adaptive particle filtering method, and obtaining accurate positioning of therobot on a laser map according to a laser scanning matching result; judging whether the particle variance positioned in the positioning process of the self-adaptive particle filtering method exceedsa set threshold value or not: if so, performing visual repositioning by utilizing a visual feature map, outputting a positioning result of the robot, and re-initializing the current particle, namely,performing error recovery; if not, outputting a positioning result of the robot. Compared with the prior art, the method has the advantages that the robot can quickly recover accurate positioning by means of the repositioning function of the visual feature map during initialization or after being bound, so the stability and reliability of positioning are guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of autonomous positioning of mobile robots, in particular to a positioning method for mobile robots based on vision-guided laser repositioning. Background technique [0002] Positioning technology is the basis for robots to move autonomously, and is the key to endow robots with perception and action capabilities. With the development and wide application of robot technology, more and more industrial handling robots and inspection robots need to work in unmanned factories, and positioning technology is the basis for their task execution. [0003] In the traditional positioning method, absolute positioning mainly uses navigation beacons, signs and satellite navigation technology for positioning, but the construction and maintenance costs of beacons are relatively high, and GPS can only be used outdoors. Relative positioning mainly uses wheel encoders, inertial measurement units and laser radars. Both wheel encoders and...
