[0031] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the scheme of the present invention, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present invention described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. The situations of "target", "original", etc. are similar and will not be repeated here. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any of their variations are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, for example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0033] Figure 1 1 is a flow chart of a path planning method provided in an embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to the case of path planning. The method can be executed by a path planning device provided in an embodiment of the present invention, which can be implemented by software and / or hardware, and can be integrated in an electronic device, which can be various user terminals or servers.

[0034] See also Figure 1 The method of the embodiment of the present invention specifically includes the following steps:

[0035] S110. In response to a path planning instruction, path planning data is acquired, and the path planning data is identified, and an initial path is generated according to a first identification result obtained, wherein the path planning data includes location data and / or voice data for path planning, and the location data is obtained by collecting the target location.

[0036] The path planning instruction may be an instruction for performing path planning that is automatically or manually triggered, and the path planning data is obtained in response to the path planning instruction. In practical applications, the path planning data may optionally include part data and / or voice data that can be used for path planning. The part data may be data collected from the target part, such as lip shape data collected from the mouth, gesture data collected from the hands, or foot posture data collected from the feet, etc., which are not specifically limited here; the voice data may be data collected from the sound.

[0037] The path planning data is recognized, and an initial path is generated according to a first recognition result obtained thereby. For example, the lip shape data is recognized based on structured light or time of flight (TOF), and an initial path is generated according to a lip shape recognition result obtained thereby; the speech data is recognized based on an acoustic model, and an initial path is generated according to a speech recognition result obtained thereby; etc., which are not specifically limited here.

[0038] S120, obtaining brain-computer data for adjusting the initial path, identifying the brain-computer data, and obtaining path adjustment information according to a second identification result.

[0039] Among them, in actual applications, there may be some differences between the initial path generated based on the above steps and the actual desired moving path for controlling the movement of the mobile robot. In order to plan a target path that better matches the moving path, brain-computer data for adjusting the initial path can be obtained. Optionally, the brain-computer data may include at least one of synchronization potential, desynchronization potential, steady-state visual evoked potential, slow cortical potential, μ rhythm and β rhythm. Further, the brain-computer data is identified, and path adjustment information is obtained based on the second identification result. The path adjustment information is used to indicate how to adjust the initial path, such as moving the end point in the initial path forward by 1 meter; taking the Nth path point in the initial path as the center, rotating the N+1th path point counterclockwise around the center by 30°; etc., which are not specifically limited here.

[0040] It should be noted that brain-computer data is the data formed by the sum of the postsynaptic potentials of a large number of neurons that occur synchronously when the brain is active. It can record the changes in electric waves when the brain is active. It is the overall reflection of the electrophysiological activities of brain nerve cells in the cerebral cortex or scalp surface, that is, it can accurately reflect what humans think. On this basis, considering that mobile robots cannot effectively receive voice commands issued by humans in noisy environments or outer space, but can effectively receive brain-computer commands issued by humans through devices such as brain-computer chips, path adjustment information is generated here by collecting brain-computer data, thereby achieving the effect of effective and accurate generation of path adjustment information in various environments.

[0041] S130: Adjust the initial path based on the path adjustment information to obtain a target path.

[0042] The initial path is adjusted based on the path adjustment information, thereby obtaining a target path that is more in line with the actual desired moving path.

[0043] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention obtains path planning data in response to a path planning instruction, identifies the path planning data, and generates an initial path according to the first identification result obtained, wherein the path planning data includes part data and / or voice data for path planning, and the part data is obtained by collecting the target part; obtains brain-computer data for adjusting the initial path, identifies the brain-computer data, and obtains path adjustment information according to the second identification result obtained; adjusts the initial path based on the path adjustment information to obtain the target path. The above technical solution does not need to perform path planning through a pre-set path, and can generate an initial path in real time according to the acquired path planning data, and then generate path adjustment information according to the acquired brain-computer data to adjust the initial path, thereby achieving the effect of flexible path planning, thereby meeting the needs of flexible control of mobile robots in reality.

[0044] Figure 2 It is a flow chart of another path planning method provided in an embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is optimized based on the above-mentioned technical solutions. In this embodiment, optionally, when the path planning data includes part data, the path planning data is identified, and an initial path is generated according to the first identification result obtained, which may include: identifying the part data, and generating an initial path according to the first identification result obtained, wherein the initial path is located in the three-dimensional space where the target part is located; after the initial path is generated according to the first identification result obtained, the above-mentioned path planning method also includes: obtaining a target map obtained based on real-time positioning and map construction associated with the three-dimensional space, and matching the initial path to the target map; updating the initial path according to the first matching result obtained. Among them, the explanations of the terms that are the same or corresponding to the above-mentioned embodiments are not repeated here.

[0045] See also Figure 2 The method of this embodiment may specifically include the following steps:

[0046] S210. In response to a path planning instruction, obtain path planning data, wherein the path planning data may include location data.

[0047] S220, identifying the part data, and generating an initial path according to the obtained first identification result, wherein the initial path is located in the three-dimensional space where the target part is located.

[0048] The part data is identified to generate an initial path in the three-dimensional space where the target part is located.

[0049] S230, obtaining a target map associated with the three-dimensional space based on real-time positioning and map construction, matching the initial path to the target map, and updating the initial path according to the first matching result obtained.

[0050] Among them, the target map may include a map associated with the three-dimensional space based on simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), or a SLAM map of the vicinity of the places that the mobile robot passes through during movement. Since the initial path in the three-dimensional space generated based on the part data does not necessarily match the target map, for example, when the target map is reconstructed based on a laser radar and the part data is acquired based on camera collection, the initial path does not match the target map, so the initial path can be matched to the target map to obtain an initial path that matches the target map. In this way, after the target path is subsequently generated based on the initial path, the mobile robot can be controlled to move along the target path that matches the target map.

[0051] S240, obtaining brain-computer data for adjusting the initial path, identifying the brain-computer data, and obtaining path adjustment information according to a second identification result.

[0052] S250: Adjust the initial path based on the path adjustment information to obtain a target path.

[0053] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention obtains an initial path in the three-dimensional space where the target part is located by identifying the part data; further, since the initial path does not necessarily match the target map, and the movement process of the mobile robot is controlled based on the target map, the initial path can be matched to the target map, thereby obtaining an initial path that matches the target map.

[0054] An optional technical solution, in the case where the part data includes part videos obtained by capturing the target part at at least two viewing angles, the part data is identified and an initial path is generated based on a first identification result. The solution may include: for the part video captured at each viewing angle, the part video is framed to obtain a part image, and feature extraction is performed on the part image to obtain image features; image features in different part images are matched, and a three-dimensional space is reconstructed based on a second matching result; directional information of the target part is acquired from the three-dimensional space, and based on the directional information, an intersection of an extension direction of the target part and the ground is obtained, and an initial path is generated based on the intersection.

[0055] In order to generate the initial path in the three-dimensional space, the target part is collected at least two viewing angles to obtain a part video. On this basis, the part video collected at each viewing angle can be framed to obtain at least one part image, and then feature extraction is performed on each part image to obtain corresponding image features. Since the part images collected at different viewing angles at the same time have the same feature points, the image features in different part images can be matched, specifically, the image features in different part images collected at the same time can be matched, so as to reconstruct the three-dimensional space. Further, since the reconstructed three-dimensional space includes not only environmental information but also part information of the target part, the directional information of the target part can be obtained from the three-dimensional space. The directional information can be considered as a type of part information, which is used to represent the relevant information of the target part pointing. According to the directional information, the intersection of the extension direction of the target part pointing and the ground can be obtained, and then the initial path can be generated according to these intersections, thereby achieving the effect of effective generation of the initial path.

[0056] In order to understand the above technical solution more vividly, the following is an exemplary description of it with reference to specific examples. Figure 3 Here, taking the target part as an example, the hand is captured by the camera at different viewing angles, and image features (such as scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT)) are extracted from the hand images; then these image features are matched in different hand images, and a set of three-dimensional points and the camera posture are jointly optimized to be consistent with these matches, thereby generating a three-dimensional space. On this basis, the pointing information of the hand is obtained from the three-dimensional space, and the intersection of the extending direction of the hand pointing and the ground is obtained according to the pointing information, so that the initial path can be generated according to these intersections. Finally, the initial path is matched to the SLAM map used to control the movement of the mobile robot.

[0057] In practical applications, the generation (i.e., modeling) process of the above three-dimensional space can be optionally implemented based on the Block-NeRF model. Specifically, the hand image is input into the Block-NeRF model, and then the three-dimensional space is obtained according to the output result of the Block-NeRF model. The specific working process of the above Block-NeRF model is as follows: Figure 4 As shown in the figure: the radiation field and density of the three-dimensional space (i.e., the three-dimensional scene) are modeled based on the Block-NeRF model weights; volume rendering is used to synthesize hand images from perspectives other than the acquired perspective. This synthesis process is through a set of input images of a given three-dimensional scene and its camera pose, and then synthesizes the previously unobserved viewpoints to render the observed scene content.

[0058] Figure 5 It is a flow chart of another path planning method provided in an embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is optimized based on the above-mentioned technical solutions. In this embodiment, optionally, the brain-computer data is identified, and the path adjustment information is obtained according to the second identification result obtained, which may include: obtaining a trained brain-computer data recognition model, wherein the brain-computer data recognition model includes a brain-computer feature extraction network and a brain-computer feature recognition network; inputting the brain-computer data into the brain-computer feature extraction network, and obtaining the brain-computer features according to the output results of the brain-computer feature extraction network; inputting the brain-computer features into the brain-computer feature recognition network, and obtaining the path adjustment information according to the second identification result output by the brain-computer feature recognition network. Among them, the explanations of the terms that are the same or corresponding to the above-mentioned embodiments are not repeated here.

[0059] See also Figure 5 The method of this embodiment may specifically include the following steps:

[0060] S310. In response to a path planning instruction, path planning data is obtained, and the path planning data is identified, and an initial path is generated according to a first identification result obtained, wherein the path planning data includes location data and / or voice data for path planning, and the location data is obtained by collecting the target location.

[0061] S320, obtaining brain-computer data for adjusting the initial path and a trained brain-computer data recognition model, wherein the brain-computer data recognition model includes a brain-computer feature extraction network and a brain-computer feature recognition network.

[0062] Among them, the brain-machine data recognition model is used to identify brain-machine data, which may include a brain-machine feature extraction network for extracting brain-machine features from brain-machine data, and a brain-machine feature recognition network for identifying brain-machine features. In other words, the brain-machine data recognition model includes a brain-machine feature extraction network and a brain-machine feature recognition network connected to each other. In practical applications, optionally, the number of brain-machine brain-machine feature extraction networks can be one, two or more, and each brain-machine feature extraction network can be used to extract brain-machine features in brain-machine data corresponding to a certain or certain path adjustment information. In fact, a path adjustment information can be understood as a path adjustment command, that is, human thought information for adjusting the initial path. Optionally, the above-mentioned brain-machine feature extraction network can be a spiking neural network (Spiking Neuron Networks, SNN) or a Hodgkin-Huxley network, wherein the Hodgkin-Huxley network can be understood as a specific example in SNN.

[0063] S330, inputting brain-computer data into a brain-computer feature extraction network, and obtaining brain-computer features according to output results of the brain-computer feature extraction network.

[0064] S340, inputting the brain-computer feature into the brain-computer feature recognition network, and obtaining path adjustment information according to a second recognition result output by the brain-computer feature recognition network.

[0065] S350: Adjust the initial path based on the path adjustment information to obtain a target path.

[0066] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention is to obtain a trained brain-computer data recognition model, which may include a brain-computer feature extraction network and a brain-computer feature recognition network; then, the brain-computer data is input into the brain-computer feature extraction network to obtain brain-computer features, and then the brain-computer features are input into the brain-computer feature recognition network to obtain path adjustment information, thereby achieving the effect of effective recognition of path adjustment information.

[0067] An optional technical solution, the brain-machine feature recognition network may include a generator connected to the brain-machine feature extraction network, and a discriminator connected to the generator; the brain-machine feature is input into the brain-machine feature recognition network, and the path adjustment information is obtained according to the second recognition result output by the brain-machine feature recognition network, which may include: inputting the brain-machine feature into the generator, and obtaining simulation data for simulating brain-machine data according to the output result of the generator; inputting the brain-machine data and the simulation data into the discriminator, and obtaining the path adjustment information according to the second recognition result output by the discriminator. In other words, the brain-machine feature output by the brain-machine feature extraction network can be input into the generator, so that the generator simulates the brain-machine data according to the input brain-machine feature to obtain the simulation data. Further, the brain-machine data and the simulation data are input into the discriminator, so that the discriminator identifies the path adjustment information according to the two.

[0068] In order to understand the above technical solution more vividly, the following is an exemplary description of it with reference to specific examples. Figure 6 As shown, a multi-chamber synaptic connection model and various types of Hodgkin-Huxley models (specific examples of SNN models) are established; a large amount of brain-computer data is collected through the brain-computer chip, and the collected brain-computer data is preprocessed. The brain-computer data may include event-related synchronization potentials, desynchronization potentials, steady-state visual evoked potentials, slow cortical potentials, μ rhythms and β rhythms, which is equivalent to obtaining meta-grid input; the preprocessed brain-computer data is used to train a deep learning model to obtain a data recognition model; the input brain-computer data is recognized based on the data recognition model to obtain path adjustment information (i.e., human thought information). On this basis, for example, see Figure 7 The data recognition model may include an SNN, a generator for capturing data distribution, and a discriminator for estimating the probability that a sample comes from training data. Through an adversarial process, the generator is repeatedly evaluated to determine which model best fits the actual data distribution.

[0069] In order to better understand the above-mentioned technical solutions as a whole, the following is an exemplary description of them in combination with specific examples. Here, a mobile robot represented by an automated guided vehicle (AGV) is taken as an example. Figure 8 The AGV path planning process based on brain-computer chip and gesture recognition is shown in the figure.

[0070] 1. Collect hand videos or gesture videos through the camera.

[0071] 2. Use the Block-NeRF model to recognize the hand video, generate an initial path, then match the initial path to the SLAM map, and update the initial path based on the matching results.

[0072] 3. Collect brain-computer data through brain-computer chips, and identify the brain-computer data through SNN bionic learning algorithm and generative adversarial neural network (generator + discriminator) to obtain human thought information.

[0073] 4. Adjust the initial path on the SLAM map based on human thought information, and then obtain the target path after the detection is completed (that is, without new brain-computer data), so as to navigate and control the AGV.

[0074] 5. In addition, the brain-computer acquisition device can transmit the collected brain-computer data to the controller so that the controller can control the AGV track and speed in real time according to "human thoughts".
