Laser map region segmentation method

Abstract

The invention discloses a laser map area segmentation method comprising the following steps: 1, denoising a grayed laser map, wherein the laser map is a map pre-constructed through rotary scanning ofa laser sensor assembled on a robot, and the laser map comprises map environment contour information obtained through laser scanning; step 2, according to distance information between a white pixel point of the grayed laser map and a black pixel point marked by a nearest obstacle, obtaining a laser map, determining central points of at least two robot working areas, secondly, segmenting the imageof the laser map processed in the first step into closed map areas with the center point of the robot working area as a local minimum value point and meeting the requirement for the optimal working area of the robot through a watershed algorithm, wherein each closed map area is an influence area obtained through outward expansion of the center point of the corresponding robot working area. Therefore, the situation that the working efficiency of the robot is reduced after the map is divided into multiple areas is avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of laser vision building grid maps, in particular to an area segmentation method for laser maps. Background technique [0002] In the field of robotics, maps are one of the main tools to help robots describe their environment and precisely locate them. The most common type of map used in robotic autonomous localization and navigation techniques is the grid map. However, the existing 4*4 covering cleaning method does not reasonably use the obstacle information in the grid map to divide multiple room areas, so that an autonomous mobile robot's understanding of the environment only stays at the level of independent rooms; The map segmentation method does not effectively use the linear advantage brought by laser sensor scanning, and it is easy to divide the idle area in the grid map into more areas and reduce the working efficiency of the robot.
