[0068] In this embodiment, the specific operations of steps 301, 303 and 304 are the same as Figure 2 The operations of steps 201, 203 and 204 in the illustrated embodiment are substantially the same and will not be described in detail herein.

[0069] from Figure 3 It can be seen that Figure 2 Compared with the corresponding embodiment, the method 300 based on unmanned vehicle pickup in this embodiment first receives an item pickup request sent by a client, wherein the item pickup request includes item order information; then, based on the item pickup location information, obtains a pickup area corresponding to the item pickup location information from at least one preset pickup area; then, determines a matching target unmanned vehicle based on the pickup area and the item order information; then, sends the pickup area to the target unmanned vehicle so that the target unmanned vehicle picks up the items corresponding to the item order information in the pickup area. The pickup area and item order information obtained based on at least one pickup area to which the item order information belongs can be used to determine a matching target unmanned vehicle to achieve item delivery, thereby expanding business scenarios, alleviating the overall logistics timeliness of items, and improving user experience.

[0070] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, the item order information also includes item feature information; determining a matching target unmanned vehicle based on the pickup area and the item order information includes: obtaining multiple corresponding unmanned vehicles based on the pickup area; and determining a matching target unmanned vehicle from multiple unmanned vehicles based on the item feature information.

[0071] In this implementation, the execution subject can obtain multiple unmanned vehicles corresponding to the pickup area according to the pickup area; then, according to the item feature information, obtain a matching target unmanned vehicle from the multiple unmanned vehicles. The item feature information can be used to characterize the item feature information, which can include item type, color, item shape, item size, weight, attributes, etc. The attributes can be divided into daily necessities, electronic products, electronic cards, etc.

[0072] In one example, multiple unmanned vehicles corresponding to the pickup area can be determined based on the number of parcels picked up in the pickup area and / or the pickup capacity information of the pickup area.

[0073] In one example, a target unmanned vehicle that matches the size of the object can be selected from multiple unmanned vehicles based on the size of the object.

[0074] It should be noted that the target unmanned vehicle that matches the size of the object can accommodate objects of the same size.

[0075] In this implementation, the above-mentioned execution entity can obtain multiple corresponding unmanned vehicles according to the collection area; then, according to the feature information of the item, determine the matching target unmanned vehicle from the multiple unmanned vehicles.

[0076] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, the item feature information includes the size and weight of the item.

[0077] In this implementation, the item feature information may include the size and weight of the item.

[0078] In this implementation, a matching target unmanned vehicle can be determined from multiple unmanned vehicles based on the size and weight of the object included in the object feature information.

[0079] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, a matching target unmanned vehicle is determined from multiple unmanned vehicles based on item feature information, including: determining a matching target unmanned vehicle from multiple unmanned vehicles based on item feature information and the pickup capability information of each of the multiple unmanned vehicles.

[0080] In this implementation, the execution subject may determine a matching target unmanned vehicle from among the multiple unmanned vehicles based on the item feature confidence ratio and the pickup capability information of each of the multiple unmanned vehicles. The pickup capability information may be the amount of items that the unmanned vehicle can accommodate.

[0081] In this implementation, a target unmanned vehicle can be determined from multiple unmanned vehicles based on item feature information and the pickup capability information of each of the multiple unmanned vehicles.

[0082] In some optional implementations of the present embodiment, the method based on unmanned vehicle collection also includes: in response to information on the target unmanned vehicle arriving at the item collection location, obtaining unpacking verification information through the target unmanned vehicle; in response to the unpacking verification information being consistent with preset verification information, controlling the box door of the target unmanned vehicle to open, so that the target unmanned vehicle collects items corresponding to the item order information in the collection area.

[0083] In this implementation, the above-mentioned execution subject can obtain the unpacking verification code through the target unmanned vehicle when the target unmanned vehicle arrives at the item pickup location information; when the unpacking verification code is consistent with the preset unpacking verification code, the box door of the target unmanned vehicle is controlled to open, so that the target unmanned vehicle can collect the items corresponding to the item order information in the pickup area. The above-mentioned unpacking verification information can be verification information input by the user who needs to be picked up through the unmanned vehicle, for example, text verification information entered by the user on the interface of the unmanned vehicle, or voice verification information entered by the unmanned vehicle, or image verification information taken by the unmanned vehicle; the above-mentioned verification information can be used to verify the identity information of the user who needs to be picked up, and the verification information may include identity verification information or a random verification code. The above-mentioned preset verification information can be the verification information provided by the above-mentioned user when placing an order or the verification information provided when registering. The above-mentioned consistency can be that the unpacking verification information is the same as the preset verification information.

[0084] It should be noted that before opening the door of the target unmanned vehicle, the cabinet corresponding to the item feature information can also be determined based on the item feature information; then, after the verification is passed, the door of the cabinet corresponding to the item feature information is controlled to open.

[0085] In this implementation, when the target unmanned vehicle arrives at the item pickup location information, the unpacking verification information is obtained through the target unmanned vehicle, and when the unpacking verification information is consistent with the preset verification information, the box door of the target unmanned vehicle is controlled to open, so that the target unmanned vehicle can collect the items corresponding to the item order information in the pickup area.

[0086] In some optional implementations of this embodiment, the unpacking verification information includes: a verification image taken by the target unmanned vehicle.

[0087] In this implementation, the above-mentioned execution subject can obtain the unpacking verification information by shooting the verification image through the target unmanned vehicle in the form of image acquisition, thereby enriching the method of obtaining the unpacking verification information.

[0088] like Figure 4 , a flowchart 400 of an embodiment of a method for picking up items based on an unmanned vehicle according to the present application is shown. The method for picking up items based on an unmanned vehicle may include the following steps:

[0089] Step 401: receiving an item pickup request sent by a client, wherein the item pickup request includes item order information.

[0090] In this embodiment, the execution subject of the method based on unmanned vehicle pickup (for example Figure 1 The server 104 shown in FIG. Figure 1 The network 103 shown) receives the client (eg Figure 1The item pickup request sent by the terminal device 101 or 102 as shown in the figure can be triggered by the user when placing an order on his client, and the item pickup request is used to request the unmanned vehicle to pick up the item corresponding to the item pickup request. The above-mentioned item can be a physical item that can be transmitted by express delivery.

[0091] Here, the item collection request may include item order information. The item order information may be order information generated at the business level when the user places an order on the client.

[0092] Step 402: According to the item pick-up location information, a pick-up area corresponding to the item pick-up location information is obtained from at least one preset pick-up area.

[0093] In this embodiment, the execution subject may obtain a pickup area corresponding to the item pickup location information from at least one preset pickup area according to the item pickup location information. The item pickup location information may be the location where the item is picked up.

[0094] In this embodiment, the execution entity may establish a corresponding relationship with at least one pick-up area according to the item pick-up location information.

[0095] It should be noted that the pickup area can be divided according to the number of items corresponding to the item pickup location information and / or the pickup capability information of the unmanned vehicle.

[0096] In an example, the item collection location information corresponds to a certain cell or several cells. In this case, the collection area corresponding to the item collection location information may be a certain cell or several cells.

[0097] Step 403, obtaining corresponding multiple unmanned vehicles according to the pickup area.

[0098] In this embodiment, the above-mentioned execution entity can obtain multiple unmanned vehicles corresponding to the pickup area according to the pickup area.

[0099] In one example, multiple unmanned vehicles corresponding to the pickup area can be determined based on the number of parcels picked up in the pickup area and / or the pickup capacity information of the pickup area.

[0100] Step 404, determining a matching target unmanned vehicle from multiple unmanned vehicles based on the feature information of the object.

[0101] In this embodiment, the execution subject can obtain a matching target unmanned vehicle from multiple unmanned vehicles based on the item feature information. The item feature information can be used to characterize the item feature information, which can include item type, color, item shape, item size, weight, attributes, etc. The attributes can be divided into daily necessities, electronic products, electronic cards, etc.

[0102] In one example, a target unmanned vehicle that matches the size of the object can be selected from multiple unmanned vehicles based on the size of the object.

[0103] It should be noted that the target unmanned vehicle that matches the size of the object can accommodate objects of the same size.

[0104] Step 405: Send the pickup area to the target unmanned vehicle, so that the target unmanned vehicle picks up the items corresponding to the item order information in the pickup area.

[0105] In this embodiment, the execution subject can be connected via a network (eg Figure 1 The network 103 shown in the figure sends a pickup area to the target unmanned vehicle, so that the target unmanned vehicle picks up the items corresponding to the item order information in the pickup area.

[0106] In this embodiment, the specific operations of steps 401, 402, and 405 are the same as Figure 3 The operations of steps 301 , 302 and 304 in the illustrated embodiment are substantially the same and will not be described in detail herein.

[0107] from Figure 4 It can be seen that Figure 3 Compared with the corresponding embodiment, the method 400 based on unmanned vehicle pickup in this embodiment first receives the item pickup request sent by the client, wherein the item pickup request includes the item order information; then, according to the item pickup location information, obtains the pickup area corresponding to the item pickup location information from at least one preset pickup area; then, according to the pickup area, obtains multiple corresponding unmanned vehicles; then, according to the item feature information, determines the matching target unmanned vehicle from multiple unmanned vehicles; then, sends the pickup area to the target unmanned vehicle, so that the target unmanned vehicle picks up the items corresponding to the item order information in the pickup area. The pickup area obtained based on at least one pickup area to which the item pickup location information belongs can be used, and then, according to the pickup area, multiple corresponding unmanned vehicles are obtained, and then, according to the item feature information, a matching target unmanned vehicle is determined from multiple unmanned vehicles to achieve item delivery, thereby expanding business scenarios, alleviating the overall logistics timeliness of items, and improving user experience.

[0108] like Figure 5, showing a schematic diagram of an application scenario of the method for picking up items by an unmanned vehicle according to the present application. In the application scenario, the method for picking up items by an unmanned vehicle may include the following steps:

[0109] In the first step, users can use their terminal devices to download the shipping list (i.e., item order information) in the application (APP) or mini-program.

[0110] In the second step, the device based on the unmanned vehicle collection can assign the items to be collected to the unmanned vehicle according to the order address in the delivery note.

[0111] In this embodiment, the device compares the user's order address with the unmanned vehicle's delivery stop (i.e., pickup area) to determine whether the unmanned vehicle can pick up the parcel. The device then further determines whether the unmanned vehicle can pick up the parcel based on the size and / or weight of the ordered item in the order. For example, whether the item exceeds the maximum size of the unmanned vehicle box.

[0112] In this embodiment, the system based on unmanned vehicle picking up items may include an unmanned vehicle and an unmanned vehicle picking up items device.

[0113] In the third step, the unmanned vehicle receives the pickup task and sets off to the pickup area.

[0114] The fourth step is to notify the user when the unmanned vehicle arrives at the pickup address (i.e., the pickup area).

[0115] In the fifth step, the user enters the sender's identity information and the shipping code (i.e., unpacking verification information).

[0116] Step 6: Verify identity information and order information.

[0117] In the seventh step, the user selects a box that matches the size of the item and pays.

[0118] Step 8. Open the box when payment is successful.

[0119] In this embodiment, the unmanned vehicle sets out to the pickup address, and prompts the user to send the package through voice and / or text messages. The user arrives at the pickup address to log in, enter the shipping code, and sign the service agreement, and takes a photo through the camera in front of the unmanned vehicle screen for preservation. After the unmanned vehicle verifies the identity and shipping information, payment is made according to the size of the box. If the payment is successful, the box is opened; if the payment fails, a corresponding prompt is given.

[0120] Step 9: The user puts in the item.

[0121] Step 10: Conduct a preliminary compliance check of items through real-time video.

[0122] Step 11. Remove items when they are not in compliance.

[0123] In this embodiment, compliance can be determined by determining whether the item is prohibited from mailing.

[0124] Step 12: When compliance is met, the shipment is successful.

[0125] Step 13: Determine whether there is a pickup task.

[0126] Step 14. When there is the next pickup task, continue to go to the next pickup address or return to the homepage of the terminal device for sending parcels.

[0127] In the fifteenth step, the unmanned vehicle’s screen displays the list of items to be collected.

[0128] Step 16: Determine whether the unpacking inspection is compliant.

[0129] Step 17: When the package is unpacked and checked for compliance, the shipment is completed, the order number is printed and uploaded; if the shipment fails, the unmanned vehicle will deliver the package back to the pickup address and notify the user.

[0130] In this embodiment, during the unpacking process, the camera outside and inside the box conducts a preliminary compliance check (comparing the data of prohibited items (i.e., items prohibited from mailing) and making a preliminary judgment. If it is suspected to be a prohibited item, the photo is uploaded in real time and a reminder is given for manual processing), and the user is prompted whether the shipment is successful. After the shipment is successful, it is determined whether there is a pickup task in this pickup area to decide whether to go to the next point.
