TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of robots, in particular to a traffic directing robot control method, a control chip and an electronic device. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the development of science and technology and the improvement of living standards, people's travel mode is becoming more and more diversified, such as car self-driving travel, train travel, airplane travel, ship travel, etc. Among these various travel modes, cars have become the main travel mode of people due to their reasonable price and convenient travel. Cars mainly travel on roads, and perfect traffic facilities are essential for smooth travel of cars.

[0003] At present, as the number of cars on the road is increasing, sometimes the car owner may drive very fast due to urgent matters, and may not avoid at some intersections, which may cause traffic congestion at some intersections. When traffic congestion occurs, in addition to the emergency notification of traffic police to dredge the on-site traffic road, it can only wait for the intersection to adjust slowly to dredge. In order to direct traffic, traffic directing robots are placed at the command stations of key crossroads in some areas, but such robots can only direct traffic according to traffic lights and cannot dredge when traffic congestion occurs, which leads to the need for traffic police to arrive on site to dredge when facing traffic congestion, and cannot solve traffic congestion well. SUMMARY

[0011] In the manner provided by the embodiment, the change of the traffic signal is preferentially sensed, and when the change is sensed, it is determined whether there is traffic congestion at the intersection. If there is, it is determined whether there is congestion in the forbidden direction of travel according to the road condition video. If there is, the traffic command robot is caused to command the vehicles in the forbidden direction of travel to leave the intersection according to the preset traffic command rule.

[0031] By the manner provided in this embodiment, when the congestion in the prohibited direction causes the vehicles in the passing direction to be unable to pass in time, the time of the traffic light in the passing direction can be adjusted, so that the vehicles in the passing direction can pass as much as possible.

[0036] According to the license plate, the owner information is determined, and a penalty is given according to a preset traffic rule.

[0037] In the manner provided by the embodiment, the owner can be punished for not following the command, so as to constrain the owner to follow the command of the traffic command robot, thereby achieving the purpose of unblocking traffic congestion in a shorter time.

[0081] In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some but not all of the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0082] In addition, the term "and / or" in the present document is only used to describe the association relationship of the associated objects, which means that there can be three relationships, for example, A and / or B can mean that there are three cases of A alone, A and B together, and B alone. In addition, the character " / " in the present document generally represents an "or" relationship between the front and rear associated objects unless otherwise specified.

[0083] The embodiments of the present application will be described in further detail below with reference to the drawings of the specification.

[0084] As the number of cars on the road is increasing, sometimes the car owner may drive very fast because of urgent matters, and does not avoid at some intersections, which may cause traffic congestion at some intersections. When traffic congestion occurs, the effective method to dredge is to feed back through the vehicle-mounted broadcast or actively find the congestion, notify the traffic police to arrive at the scene to dredge, or when there is no management, only rely on the self-awareness of each car owner, wait for the intersection to adjust slowly to dredge. Since each car owner drives in different directions at this intersection, dredging through the self-awareness of each car owner may take a lot of time.

[0085] Currently, in order to direct traffic, some regions will place a traffic directing robot at some intersections, which can direct traffic according to traffic lights, can save the human cost of traffic police, and make the traffic police more applied to other places than directing traffic. However, when traffic congestion occurs, vehicles in the prohibited direction of travel may be blocked at the intersection, making vehicles in the passable direction unable to pass. At this time, these traffic directing robots may feed back and increase the passing time of the passable direction, but if the traffic directing robot only directs traffic according to the traffic light, the vehicles blocked at the intersection in the prohibited direction of travel may not be able to drive out, and at the same time, the vehicles in the passable direction may also be unable to pass, at which time the traffic congestion cannot be relieved, and even the traffic congestion may be aggravated. At this time, traffic police still need to arrive on the scene to dredge, and it may take more time than when there is no traffic directing robot.

[0086] Based on this, the application provides a traffic directing robot control method and device, an electronic device and a storage medium. The traffic directing robot of the application includes a left mechanical arm, a right mechanical arm, a camera, a video processing module and a signal sensing module. First, the signal sensing module of the traffic directing robot is controlled to sense whether the current traffic light changes. If it changes, the camera can be controlled to obtain the road condition video at the current time, and the video processing module is used for processing. According to the processing result, it is determined whether there is congestion at the current time, and if there is congestion, it is determined whether the congestion occurs in the prohibited direction of travel. If so, according to the preset traffic directing rule, the left mechanical arm and the right mechanical arm are controlled to make corresponding directing actions to direct the vehicles in the prohibited direction of travel to drive away from the intersection. In this way, when traffic congestion occurs, it is determined whether it is caused by vehicles in the prohibited direction of travel, and if so, the vehicles in this direction are driven away in time to avoid affecting the travel of vehicles in the passable direction. The traffic congestion is dredged in a shorter time, and the human cost is saved.

[0087] Figure 1 An application scenario is provided for the application. The traffic directing robot control method provided by the application can be applied to the control chip of any robot used for traffic directing, to control the left mechanical arm and the right mechanical arm of the traffic directing robot to make corresponding gesture signals for traffic directing, and to avoid traffic congestion. The left mechanical arm and the right mechanical arm of the traffic directing robot can be used to make corresponding directing actions according to the preset traffic directing rule. In addition, a camera can be provided to shoot the current intersection to obtain a road condition video. The traffic directing robot of the application is applicable to intersections with or without traffic congestion, and the corresponding modules in the traffic directing robot are controlled by the control chip to obtain corresponding processing results or other contents to determine the traffic condition of the current intersection, and traffic is directed according to the traffic condition.

[0088] The specific implementation can refer to the following embodiments.

[0089] Figure 2 A flowchart of a control method of a traffic directing robot is provided for an embodiment of the present application. The method of the embodiment can be applied to the control chip of the traffic directing robot in the above scenarios. As shown in the figure, the method comprises the following steps. Figure 2

[0090] S201, a control signal sensing module determines whether the sensed traffic signal light changes according to the sensing result.

[0091] The signal sensing module can be used to sense the change of the traffic signal light. The determination of whether the traffic signal light changes can be made according to the traffic signal light for the north-south traffic. For example, if the traffic signal light for the north-south traffic is red at this time, it means that the traffic signal light for the east-west traffic is green, and at this time, the vehicle traveling in the east-west direction is allowed to pass. If the traffic signal light for the north-south traffic is green, it means that the traffic signal light for the east-west traffic is red, and at this time, the vehicle traveling in the north-south direction is allowed to pass. In the specific implementation, if there are multiple directions to be indicated, multiple determinations can also be made. For example, there are two traffic signal lights for the east-west and north-south directions, i.e., straight and left turn. At this time, the determination of whether the traffic signal light changes can still be made according to the traffic signal light for the north-south traffic. If the straight traffic signal light for the north-south direction is green at this time, it means that the traffic signal light for the east-west direction is red, and at this time, the vehicle traveling in the north-south direction is allowed to pass. If the straight traffic signal light for the north-south direction is red, it is determined whether the left turn signal light is green. If it is, the vehicle traveling in the north-south direction is allowed to turn left. If it is not, it means that the vehicle traveling in the east-west direction is allowed to pass at this time. When there are multiple directions to be indicated, multiple sensing operations need to be performed. For example, the straight traffic signal light for the north-south direction is first sensed. If the straight traffic signal light for the north-south direction is red at this time, a second sensing operation is performed to sense the color of the left turn traffic signal light for the north-south direction. In addition, the straight and left turn traffic signal lights for the east-west direction are also sensed to determine how the vehicle should travel at the current time to avoid the situation that the final command is wrong due to the incorrect sensing result.

[0092] In some implementations, the positions of all traffic signal lights at the intersection can be marked so that the directions do not need to be distinguished when sensing. When a green traffic signal light is sensed, the position information of the marking can be used to know that the green traffic signal light sensed at the current time is for the straight or left turn of which direction.

[0093] ​Specifically, when the traffic control robot is conducting traffic control, the control chip in the traffic control robot can start the signal sensing module and control the signal sensing module to sense the change of the traffic signal at the current time.

[0094] S202, if the traffic signal at the current time changes, the video processing module is controlled to open the camera to receive the road condition video shot by the camera and analyze it.

[0095] The camera can be arranged on the head or other parts of the robot for shooting or monitoring the road condition video. The traffic control robot in the application can be a rotatable robot or a fixed robot. If it is a fixed robot, due to the limited shooting range, at least two cameras can be arranged for the fixed traffic control robot to shoot or monitor the road condition video as much as possible and reduce the dead angle of shooting or monitoring. In the specific implementation process, the camera can be turned on at all times to shoot and upload the road condition video in real time, so that the traffic police can understand the road condition at each time period. Correspondingly, the camera can also be set to be turned on for a fixed period. This period can be the rush hour period, such as 7:00-9:00 am, or the off-peak period, such as 5:00-7:00 pm. Because there are many vehicles during rush hours, traffic congestion or traffic accidents are easy to occur, so the camera can be turned on at all times to obtain road condition information during these two periods.

[0096] The video processing module can be used to process the road condition video shot by the camera. Specifically, the feature of each frame of the road condition video can be extracted to determine the image feature in the frame. The vehicle density at the current time can also be analyzed according to the road condition video, such as three vehicles in a certain shooting range on this road section, which can be considered as the vehicle density at the current time being 3, and five vehicles appear next moment, which can be considered as the vehicle density at the current time being 5. In addition, the speed of a certain vehicle in a unit time can also be obtained according to the displacement change of the vehicle in the unit time. It should be noted that the above functions are examples, and the video processing module can also perform other processing on the road condition video shot by the camera, which will not be exemplified one by one.

[0097] Specifically, if it is determined according to the above step S201 that the traffic signal at the current time changes, the video processing module can be controlled to obtain the road condition video at the current time which has been shot by the camera.

[0098] S203, receiving the processing result of the video processing module after processing the road condition video, and determining whether there is traffic congestion at the current time according to the processing result.

[0099] A stay threshold value can be set, which can be used to prove whether a vehicle stays in an area for a long time. When the video processing module obtains the road condition video, a specific vehicle in the road condition video can be specified for targeted analysis. For example, the shooting range of this road condition video is the intersection part, at this time it can be determined that the vehicle appears in the road condition video for a certain time, and this time is compared with the stay threshold value. If the appearance time of the vehicle is higher than the stay threshold value, it can be considered that the vehicle may be unable to drive out of the intersection for a long time. In a specific implementation manner, in order to ensure the accuracy of the result, the stay time of a plurality of vehicles appearing in the road condition video is determined and compared, so as to determine whether there is a traffic jam at the intersection.

[0100] In addition, a displacement threshold value can also be set, which is a unit displacement that can ensure smooth driving of the vehicle when facing traffic congestion. On the basis of the above, the relative displacement of the vehicle per unit time is determined, and the relative displacement per unit time is compared with the displacement threshold value to determine whether it is lower than the displacement threshold value. If it is lower than the displacement threshold value, it can be considered that the vehicle cannot smoothly drive out of the intersection.

[0101] Specifically, the video processing module processes the road condition video, and determines whether there is a traffic jam at the current time according to the processing result. In a specific implementation manner, the video processing module can directly output a result of whether the traffic is congested after processing the road condition video, such as congestion or no congestion. In addition, Y can be set as congestion and N as no congestion. When the output is Y, it can be considered that there is a traffic jam at the current time, and when the output is N, it can be considered that there is no traffic jam at the current time. The control chip can determine whether there is a traffic jam at the current time according to the processing result of the video processing module.

[0102] S204, if there is a traffic jam at the current time, determining whether the prohibited direction exists congestion according to the road condition video.

[0103] The prohibited direction in the application can be the direction corresponding to the red light of the traffic signal.

[0104] Specifically, if it is determined through the above steps that there is traffic congestion at the current time, it is determined whether the congestion direction is a forbidden traffic direction according to the road condition video obtained above. If it is a forbidden traffic direction, if the vehicles in the forbidden traffic direction are not preferentially dredged at this time, the vehicles in the traffic direction will also be blocked by the vehicles already congested at the intersection and cannot drive out of the intersection. At this time, if the traffic light changes again, the current congestion situation may worsen again. Therefore, when traffic congestion occurs at an intersection, it is determined whether there is congestion in the forbidden traffic direction, or whether there are vehicles in the forbidden traffic direction that have not driven out of the intersection.

[0105] S205, if it is determined that there is congestion in the forbidden traffic direction at the current time, the left mechanical arm and the right mechanical arm are controlled to make corresponding command actions according to the preset traffic command rule to command the vehicles in the forbidden traffic direction to drive out of the intersection.

[0106] The preset traffic command rule can be set according to the current traffic actual situation, such as a stop signal: the left arm is straight up, the palm is forward, and the vehicles in front are not allowed to pass; a straight signal: the left arm is straight left, the palm is forward; the right arm is straight right, the palm is forward, and the left arm and the palm are straight forward, the palm is right, and the vehicles are allowed to turn left, and can make a U-turn without hindering the vehicles passing; a left turn signal: the left arm is straight left, the palm is forward; the left arm and the palm are straight down, and the vehicles in the left direction are allowed to enter the intersection, approach the intersection center along the left turn driving direction, and wait for the left turn signal.

[0107] Specifically, if it is determined that there is congestion in the forbidden traffic direction at the current time, the left mechanical arm and the right mechanical arm can be controlled to make corresponding command actions according to the preset traffic command rule to command the vehicles in the forbidden traffic direction to drive out of the intersection. In a specific implementation manner, the turning light opening condition of the vehicles currently in the forbidden traffic direction but having driven out of the stop line can be captured by a camera, and these vehicles are commanded one by one according to this condition, such as the first vehicle in the forbidden traffic direction that has not driven out opens the left turning light, at this time it can be determined that this vehicle plans to turn left, therefore a stop signal can be sent to the vehicles in the traffic direction, and then a left turn signal is sent to the vehicle with the left turning light opened. All vehicles in the forbidden traffic direction are commanded in turn to drive out of the intersection, and a straight signal can be sent to the vehicles in the traffic direction so that the vehicles in the traffic direction can normally drive.

[0108] By the manner provided in this embodiment, the change of the traffic signal lamp is preferentially sensed, and when the change is sensed, it is determined whether there is traffic congestion at the intersection, if there is, it is determined whether there is congestion in the prohibited direction of travel according to the road condition video, if there is, the traffic directing robot is caused to direct the vehicles in the prohibited direction of travel to drive away from the intersection according to the preset traffic directing rule. In this way, the situation that the vehicles in the prohibited direction of travel cannot drive away and the vehicles in the passing direction of travel cannot normally drive can be avoided. The traffic congestion situation can be effectively improved to improve the dredging efficiency and save the labor cost.

[0109] In some embodiments, the vehicle density in the shooting range can be determined through the processing result of the video processing module, and compared with the preset density threshold value, if higher than the preset density threshold value, it is determined that there is traffic congestion at the current time. Specifically, it can include: determining the vehicle density in the shooting range at the current time according to the processing result; comparing the vehicle density with the preset density threshold value to determine whether the vehicle density is higher than the preset density threshold value; if it is determined that the vehicle density threshold value is higher than the preset density threshold value, it is determined that there is traffic congestion at the current time.

[0110] The preset density threshold value can be represented by the number of vehicles in the current intersection under the smooth driving state, which can be adjusted and set according to the length of the intersection. For example, when three vehicles appear in the intersection for a period of time without causing the above-mentioned traffic congestion, but if four vehicles appear in the intersection for a period of time and cause the above-mentioned traffic congestion, it can be explained that if four or more vehicles appear in the intersection at the same time, the congestion may occur, therefore the preset density threshold value of the intersection can be 3, and when the preset density threshold value is exceeded, it can be considered that there is traffic congestion at the current intersection.

[0111] Specifically, according to the processing result of the video processing module on the road condition video, the vehicle density in the shooting range at the current time is determined, and the vehicle density is compared with the preset density threshold value, if the vehicle density is higher than the preset density threshold value, it can be determined that there is traffic congestion at the current time.

[0112] In the specific implementation manner, in order to ensure that there is indeed traffic congestion at the current time, the vehicle density in the unit time of the road condition video at the current time can be confirmed. By comparing the vehicle density in the unit time with the preset density threshold value, it is determined whether the vehicle density in the unit time is higher than the preset density threshold value, if the vehicle density in the unit time is higher than the preset density threshold value for 90% of the time length of the current road condition video, it can be determined that there is traffic congestion at the current time.

[0113] It should be noted that the above-mentioned numbers are all examples, and the method provided by the present application is not limited. The numerical values involved in determining whether there is a traffic jam in the vehicle density and unit time can be adjusted according to the length of the actual intersection and the number of vehicles passing through.

[0114] In the manner provided by the present embodiment, the vehicle density at the current intersection can be determined through the photographed road condition video, and then it is determined whether there is a traffic jam according to the vehicle density. This manner is simpler and more obvious, and because the reference is large, the change is also obvious, which can improve the accuracy of judgment.

[0115] In some embodiments, when there is no traffic jam in the prohibited direction at the current time, it can also be determined whether the traffic direction is congested. If it is congested, the vehicles that have not crossed the stop line at the current time can be obtained, and according to the preset traffic control rule, the corresponding control signal is sent to the left mechanical arm and the right mechanical arm to make these vehicles stop advancing. Specifically, if there is no congestion in the prohibited direction at the current time, it can be determined whether there is congestion in the traffic direction according to the road condition video. If it is determined that there is congestion in the traffic direction at the current time, the vehicles that have not crossed the stop line at the current time are obtained. According to the preset traffic control rule, the left mechanical arm and the right mechanical arm are controlled to guide the vehicles to stop advancing.

[0116] The vehicle that has not crossed the stop line can be understood as a vehicle whose rear wheels have not yet driven out of the stop line at the current time.

[0117] Specifically, after it is determined that there is no congestion in the prohibited direction through the above-mentioned embodiments, it can be determined whether there is congestion in the traffic direction through the road condition video. If the current traffic jam is caused by the vehicles in the traffic direction, traffic control can be performed in time to the vehicles that have not crossed the stop line, that is, the left mechanical arm and the right mechanical arm are controlled to send a stop signal to make these vehicles stop advancing. In this way, the intersection will not be occupied by too many vehicles. And when the traffic signal light changes, the intersection will not be congested by too many vehicles.

[0118] In the manner provided by the present embodiment, when there is no congestion in the prohibited direction, it can be determined whether there is congestion in the traffic direction according to the road condition video. If there is, a stop signal is sent to the vehicles that have not driven out of the stop line, so as to avoid too many vehicles in the intersection, which cannot normally drive away when the traffic signal light changes, thereby aggravating the congestion at the intersection.

[0119] In some embodiments, after the vehicles that have not crossed the stop line stop, the road condition video in a preset time period can be acquired, and whether the traffic jam disappears can be determined according to the road condition video. If the traffic jam disappears, the control signal sensing module is determined whether the current traffic signal light changes, if not, the left mechanical arm and the right mechanical arm are controlled to guide according to the preset traffic guiding rules, so that the vehicles can normally drive. Specifically, it can include: acquiring the latest road condition video in a preset time period after the vehicles stop; determining whether the traffic jam at the current time disappears according to the latest road condition video; if the traffic jam at the current time disappears, the control signal sensing module is used to sense whether the traffic signal light changes; if the traffic signal light at the current time does not change, the left mechanical arm and the right mechanical arm are controlled to guide the vehicle to advance according to the preset traffic guiding rules.

[0120] The preset time period can be 10 seconds or 20 seconds, or can be set according to the change time of the traffic signal light, such as the change time of the traffic signal light is 60 seconds, that is, after 60 seconds, the traffic signal light will change, for example, from red to green. At this time, the preset time period can be one third of the change time, that is, 20 seconds. It should be noted that the above-mentioned numbers are examples and do not limit the implementation of the embodiment, and the preset time period can also be set according to the specific situation of the intersection, such as fixed at 10 seconds, or fixed at one third of the change time.

[0121] The latest road condition video can be understood as the road condition video taken after the vehicles in the direction of travel stop.

[0122] Specifically, if the vehicles that have not crossed the stop line are stopped by sending a stop signal through the left mechanical arm and the right mechanical arm, the road condition video in a preset time period after the vehicles stop can be acquired, and whether the current traffic jam disappears can be determined according to the road condition video. For example, whether the traffic jam disappears can be determined by the above-mentioned method of determining the traffic jam at the current time according to the vehicle density. The unit displacement or the stay time can also be used to determine whether the traffic jam disappears. If the traffic jam in the direction of travel has disappeared at the current time, the current traffic signal light can be determined whether it changes through the control signal sensing module, if not, the left mechanical arm and the right mechanical arm are controlled to send the signal corresponding to the traffic signal light to the vehicles that have not driven out of the stop line, so that these vehicles can drive out of the intersection.

[0123] Through the method provided in the embodiment, after the traffic jam disappears, whether the current traffic signal light changes can be determined in time, if not, the vehicles that have not crossed the stop line can be guided in time, so that the traffic can be restored as soon as possible. Avoid the problem that the vehicles that have not crossed the stop line cannot drive out of the intersection under the premise that the traffic signal light does not change after the traffic jam disappears.

[0124] In some embodiments, a data feedback module can also be provided for the traffic control robot of the present application. When there is congestion in the current time in the prohibited direction, the video processing module can be controlled to analyze the road condition video to determine the traffic relief time. The video processing module can send the traffic relief time to the data feedback module, and the data feedback module can feed back after receiving the traffic relief time, so that the traffic signal time can be adjusted according to the traffic relief time. Specifically, if it is determined that there is congestion in the prohibited direction at the current time, the video processing module can be controlled to determine the traffic relief time according to the road condition video and the traffic congestion. The data feedback module can be controlled to feed back the traffic relief time to adjust the traffic signal time.

[0125] The data feedback module can feed back data to the traffic control center. The data can be pictures, videos, numbers, and texts, etc. For example, the traffic control center can be fed back the traffic congestion of some intersections, the photos of illegal parking taken by the monitoring camera, the time when the traffic congestion occurs at some intersections, the photos and time of the traffic accident at some road sections, etc.

[0126] The video processing module can analyze and determine the vehicle density or the vehicle stay time, and can also determine the traffic relief time from the traffic congestion to the disappearance of the traffic congestion. For example, the time when the traffic congestion occurs and the time when the traffic congestion disappears can be determined according to the time of the road condition video, so as to determine how long the traffic relief takes.

[0127] Specifically, when there is congestion in the prohibited direction at the current time, the video processing module can be controlled to determine the traffic relief time according to the traffic congestion and the road condition video. Then, the data feedback module can be controlled to feed back the traffic relief time, so that the traffic signal time can be adjusted according to the traffic relief time.

[0128] In the specific implementation mode, if the congestion in the prohibited direction causes the vehicles in several directions to be unable to pass through in time, the traffic relief time can be fed back to the traffic control center or other platform that can control the change of the traffic signal time, so that the platform can adjust the change of the traffic signal time in the corresponding direction according to the traffic relief time after receiving the feedback of the traffic relief time, to ensure that the vehicles can pass through the intersection.

[0129] Through the method provided in the embodiment, when the congestion in the prohibited direction causes the vehicles in several directions to be unable to pass through in time, the traffic signal time in the corresponding direction can be adjusted, so that the vehicles in the corresponding direction can pass through as much as possible.

[0130] In some embodiments, whether a vehicle is driving according to the command can be determined by real-time traffic video. If a vehicle is not driving according to the command, the license plate of the vehicle is determined according to the real-time traffic video, and the owner information corresponding to the vehicle is determined, and a penalty is made according to the preset traffic rules. Specifically, it can include: controlling the video processing module to process the real-time traffic video obtained by the camera; the real-time traffic video includes the real-time traffic in the traffic command process; according to the processing result, it is determined whether the vehicle being commanded at the current time is driving according to the command; if there is any vehicle not driving according to the command at the current time, the real-time traffic video is feature extracted to determine the license plate of the vehicle not driving according to the command; according to the license plate, the owner information is determined, and a penalty is made according to the preset traffic rules.

[0131] The preset traffic rules can be some regulations for restricting the owner, such as not obeying the command, fine of 20-200 yuan; not passing according to the traffic signal light, three points, fine of 20-200 yuan, etc. The preset traffic rules can be set according to the actual situation, and the fine and the deduction points can be adjusted.

[0132] The real-time traffic video is the current traffic video, and the camera can obtain the real-time traffic video during traffic command and upload it to the video processing module.

[0133] Specifically, the video processing module can be controlled to process the real-time traffic video obtained by the camera while the traffic command is being made. According to the processing result of the video processing module, it is determined whether the vehicle being commanded is driving according to the gesture signal made by the traffic command robot. If there is any vehicle not driving according to the gesture signal made by the traffic command robot, the video processing module can be controlled to feature extract the picture of the vehicle, thereby determining the license plate number of the vehicle, determining the owner information according to the license plate number, and making a penalty to the owner according to the preset traffic rules.

[0134] In some implementations, a third-party software platform can be set up, and each owner can determine whether his or her vehicle is subject to a penalty on the platform. In this way, the traffic command robot does not need to intercept, but can determine the owner information corresponding to the license plate number after the license plate number is extracted, make a penalty according to the preset traffic rules, and generate a penalty information to be displayed on the third-party software platform logged in by the owner.

[0135] For example, the traffic control robot sends a stop signal to the vehicle that has not crossed the stop line in the direction of traffic in the case of traffic congestion, at which time all vehicles that have not crossed the stop line should stop. If a vehicle ignores the stop signal and continues to drive, the video processing module of the traffic control robot can process the road condition video at this time, then perform feature extraction based on the road condition video, determine the license plate number of the vehicle, and then punish the vehicle owner in the above manner.

[0136] In the specific implementation process, some features of the license plate can be pre-set, such as color, the license plate color of an electric vehicle or a hybrid vehicle is green, the license plate color of a fuel vehicle is blue, numbers, letters, and the like. In this way, after feature extraction, matching can be performed based on the pre-set features of the license plate to determine which parts are the license plate and which numbers and / or letters constitute the license plate number of the license plate.

[0137] In the manner provided by the embodiment, the vehicle owner can be punished for not following the command, thereby constraining the vehicle owner to follow the command of the traffic control robot, so as to achieve the purpose of unblocking traffic congestion in a shorter time.

[0138] In some embodiments, the above method can further include: obtaining a working state at the current time; the working state includes a traffic control state and a patrol state; if the current time is not in the traffic control state, starting the patrol mode; in the patrol mode, starting the camera to perform real-time shooting, and controlling the video processing module to process the shooting video to determine whether there is a violation.

[0139] The patrol mode can be understood as a kind of patrol on the surrounding road, for example, the traffic control robot can walk around the surrounding road after starting the patrol mode, start the camera to shoot the road condition video during the walking process, and use the video processing module to determine whether there is a vehicle with a violation, illegal parking, and the like.

[0140] Specifically, the working state of the traffic control robot at the current time is obtained, and if the traffic control robot is not in the traffic control state, the patrol mode of the traffic control robot can be started. After starting the patrol mode, the traffic control robot can start the camera to perform real-time shooting, and the video processing module processes the real-time shooting video to determine whether there is a violation vehicle.

[0141] In the specific implementation manner, a number of possible violation phenomena and illegal parking phenomena can be input into the video processing module, including the photos corresponding to the above phenomena, to train the video processing module to have the function of determining whether there is a violation or illegal parking phenomenon by recognizing the pictures. At this time, after receiving the video shot by the camera, each frame of the video can be recognized to determine whether there is a violation phenomenon and an illegal parking phenomenon in the video.

[0142] By the manner provided by the embodiment, the traffic command robot can be fully utilized, and resource waste can be avoided.
