Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of robot control technology, and in particular to a robot task verification method, apparatus, electronic device, and medium. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, using robots to perform various tasks has become a development trend. When robots are performing tasks, they need to be charged when their battery is low. The device that provides charging services to robots is called a charging station. When charging, the robot is pushed to the charging station by the staff. In this process, accidents may happen, such as pushing the robot to the wrong charging station. When the robot is pushed to the wrong charging station, its task is still set as before, which may cause the robot to get lost or even be damaged. Therefore, solving the task verification problem when the robot is pushed to the wrong charging station has become a research focus in this industry. Summary of the Invention

[0051] Example 1

[0052] This disclosure provides a robot task verification method, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes:

[0053] 101. After the robot is pushed to the charging station, communicate with the robot to obtain the robot's current location information.

[0054] The robot is pushed to the charging station by staff. The robot charging station functions similarly to a gas pump at a gas station, providing charging services for the robot.

[0055] Communication is the transmission of information, referring to the transmission and exchange of information from one place to another, with the purpose of transmitting messages.

[0056] Position information refers to the robot's coordinates in the current coordinate system. For example, the coordinates of robot A in the current coordinate system are (2, 4).

[0057] 102. Based on the current location information and the preset location information, determine whether the robot has been pushed to the wrong charging station:

[0058] The current position is the robot's real-time position; the preset position is stored in the robot's memory and is the correct movement trajectory stored in advance by the robot.

[0059] 1021. If the current location information is the same as the preset location information, then the robot has not been pushed to the wrong charging station.

[0060] 1022. If the current location information is different from the preset location information, the robot is pushed to the wrong charging station, and the task of the current location is sent to the robot so that the robot can perform the correct task.

[0061] This disclosure provides a robot task verification method, including: after the robot is pushed to a charging station, communicating with the robot to obtain the robot's current location information; determining whether the robot has been pushed to the wrong charging station based on the current location information and preset location information: if the current location information is the same as the preset location information, the robot has not been pushed to the wrong charging station; if the current location information is different from the preset location information, the robot has been pushed to the wrong charging station, and the task at the current location is sent to the robot so that the robot can execute the correct task. Compared with the prior art, this disclosure sends the task at the current location to the robot after the robot is pushed to the wrong charging station, at which point the robot can execute the correct task, solving the problem of the robot getting lost when pushed to the wrong charging station; and avoiding damage to the robot due to executing the wrong task.

[0062] Example 2

[0063] This disclosure provides a robot task verification method, such as... Figure 2 As shown, it includes:

[0064] 201. After the robot is pushed to the charging station, communicate with the robot to obtain the robot's current location information.

[0065] The following will provide a brief description of this embodiment using examples. It should be noted that the scope of protection of this embodiment is not limited thereto.

[0066] For example: After the staff pushes the robot to the charging station, they communicate with the robot to obtain its current position as (2, 4).

[0067] 202. Based on the current location information and the preset location information, determine whether the robot has been pushed to the wrong charging station:

[0068] 2021. If the current location information is the same as the preset location information, then the robot has not been pushed to the wrong charging station.

[0069] 2022. If the current location information is different from the preset location information, the robot is pushed to the wrong charging station, and the task of the current location is sent to the robot so that the robot can perform the correct task.

[0070] For example, if the current position is (2, 4) and the preset position is (3, 4), the robot will be pushed to the wrong charging station if the current position is different from the preset position. In order to prevent the robot from getting lost or even damaged after charging, the task at the current position (2, 4) is sent to the robot to complete the robot task verification.

[0071] 203. After the robot finishes charging and is lowered into the pile, the robot's task is re-verified.

[0072] 2031. Obtain the robot's current task information.

[0073] The following will use a food delivery robot as an example for a simple explanation. It should be noted that the scope of protection of this embodiment is not limited thereto.

[0074] For example: The current task information of food delivery robot B is: deliver food to table A8.

[0075] 2032. Query the preset task table and determine whether the current task is the same as the preset task:

[0076] As the name suggests, the task table is a table that stores the tasks of each robot. For example, by querying the task table, the preset task of robot B is: deliver food to table A7.

[0077] 20321. If the current task is the same as the preset task, the robot continues to execute the current task.

[0078] 20322. If the current task is different from the preset task, then the preset task is sent to the robot.

[0079] For example, if the current task information of food delivery robot B, "deliver food to table A8", is different from the preset task information, "deliver food to table A7", then "deliver food to table A7" will be sent to robot B.

[0080] 204. When the robot is equipped, the robot is paired one-to-one with the charging station so that handshake recognition can be performed during charging.

[0081] Specifically, the robot is paired with a charging station one-to-one. When the robot's battery is low and it needs to be charged, the robot shakes hands with the charging station. If the charging station and the robot are matched, charging begins. If the charging station and the robot are not matched, an alarm light will illuminate to alert the staff that the matching has failed, and the robot will be pushed to the correctly matched charging station.

[0082] This disclosure provides a robot task verification method, including: after the robot is pushed to a charging station, communicating with the robot to obtain the robot's current location information; determining whether the robot has been pushed to the wrong charging station based on the current location information and preset location information: if the current location information is the same as the preset location information, the robot has not been pushed to the wrong charging station; if the current location information is different from the preset location information, the robot has been pushed to the wrong charging station, and the task at the current location is sent to the robot so that the robot can execute the correct task. Compared with the prior art, this disclosure sends the task at the current location to the robot after the robot is pushed to the wrong charging station, at which point the robot can execute the correct task, solving the problem of the robot getting lost when pushed to the wrong charging station; and avoiding damage to the robot due to executing the wrong task.

[0083] Meanwhile, after the robot finishes charging and is removed from its charging dock, this disclosure re-verifies the robot's task, including: obtaining the robot's current task information; querying the preset task table and determining whether the current task is the same as the preset task; if the current task is the same as the preset task, the robot continues to execute the current task. If the current task is different from the preset task, the preset task is sent to the robot, further ensuring the correctness of the robot's task.

[0084] Finally, this disclosure proposes a one-to-one pairing system between the robot and the charging station during robot setup, enabling handshake recognition during charging and solving the problem of pushing the robot to the wrong charging station.

[0123] This disclosure provides a robot task verification medium, comprising: after the robot is pushed to a charging station, communicating with the robot to obtain the robot's current location information; determining whether the robot has been pushed to the wrong charging station based on the current location information and preset location information: if the current location information is the same as the preset location information, the robot has not been pushed to the wrong charging station; if the current location information is different from the preset location information, the robot has been pushed to the wrong charging station, and the task at the current location is sent to the robot so that the robot can execute the correct task. Compared with the prior art, this disclosure sends the task at the current location to the robot after the robot is pushed to the wrong charging station, at which point the robot can execute the correct task, solving the problem of the robot getting lost when pushed to the wrong charging station; and avoiding damage to the robot due to executing the wrong task.

[0124] Meanwhile, after the robot finishes charging and is removed from its charging dock, this disclosure re-verifies the robot's task, including: obtaining the robot's current task information; querying the preset task table and determining whether the current task is the same as the preset task; if the current task is the same as the preset task, the robot continues to execute the current task. If the current task is different from the preset task, the preset task is sent to the robot, further ensuring the correctness of the robot's task.

[0125] Finally, this disclosure proposes a one-to-one pairing system between the robot and the charging station during robot setup, enabling handshake recognition during charging and solving the problem of pushing the robot to the wrong charging station.
