[0002] With the development of intelligent manufacturing technology, embodied garment-making robots have gradually become an important tool in the garment-making industry. However, the garment-making process involves complex physical interactions and fine operations, which pose extremely high requirements for the action accuracy and response speed of the robots.

[0003] Most of the existing garment-making robot systems lack an effective operation action monitoring mechanism, making it difficult to issue early warnings in a timely manner when the robot's actions are abnormal or the garment-making quality does not meet the standards, which affects the garment-making efficiency and product quality and is not conducive to promoting the development of the garment-making industry towards the direction of intelligence and automation.

[0004] In view of the above technical deficiencies, a solution is proposed herein. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an intelligent monitoring and alarm system for the operation actions of garment-making robots, which solves the problems in the prior art that it is difficult to issue early warnings in a timely manner when the robot's actions are abnormal or the garment-making quality does not meet the standards, affecting the garment-making efficiency and product quality and being not conducive to promoting the development of the garment-making industry towards the direction of intelligence and automation.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0018] For the convenience of those skilled in the art to understand, the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings;

[0019] Figure 1 is the overall system block diagram of the present invention;

[0020] Figure 2 is the system block diagram of the neural radiance field model unit in the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0021] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] Embodiment 1: As Figure 1-2 shown, the intelligent operation action monitoring and alarm system applicable to garment-making robots proposed by the present invention includes a data acquisition and preprocessing unit, a neural radiance field model unit, an embodied robot control unit, an intelligent monitoring and alarm unit, an evaluation and optimization analysis unit, and a background terminal;

[0023] The data acquisition and preprocessing unit collects high-definition video data of garment-making workers' work, including the garment-making process under multiple angles and multiple lighting conditions, and provides high-quality data input for subsequent model training through preprocessing steps such as video frame division, denoising, and enhancement.

[0024] The neural radiance field model unit constructs a basic NeRF (neural radiance field) model for 3D scene reconstruction, integrates an object recognition module, and integrates a physical property prediction module and a temporal information processing module; among them, the object recognition module uses deep learning object detection and segmentation algorithms (such as Mask R-CNN) to identify target objects (including clothes and tools, etc.) in the video, and outputs object bounding boxes and semantic segmentation masks;

[0025] The physical property prediction module combines computer vision and physical simulation to predict the physical properties of clothes, including the softness, elasticity, and thickness of clothes, etc., and outputs the physical parameters of each part of the clothes; the temporal information processing module uses a recurrent neural network (RNN) or a temporal convolutional network (TCN) to capture the dynamic information in the garment-making process and outputs a temporal-related feature representation.

[0026] The embodied robot control unit (Embodied Robots refer to robots that have a physical form and can perform tasks and interact with the environment in the real world, and can perform complex tasks and operations, such as identifying objects, understanding instructions, and planning actions) is configured with a multi-joint robotic arm and high-precision sensors, and precisely controls the garment-making robot based on a reinforcement learning-based control algorithm; and designs an interaction protocol with the NeRF model to ensure that the robot can accurately respond to the instructions of the monitoring system.

[0027] During the operation of the garment-making robot, the intelligent monitoring and alarm unit monitors the operation actions of the garment-making robot in real time. When abnormal behaviors are detected, it automatically triggers an alarm mechanism and sends an alarm message to the background terminal, reminding the operator to take corresponding measures through sound, light, and other means;

[0028] It should be noted that the monitored abnormal behaviors include slow or stopped actions, program crashes or unresponsiveness, sensor failures, runaway phenomena, mechanical failures, and abnormal connection states. Among them, when the clothing-making robot is performing clothing-making tasks, if it shows slow or completely stopped actions, it may be due to internal failures of the robot, such as motor failures, damage to transmission components, etc. In addition, insufficient power supply or controller failures may also cause the robot to move slowly or stop.

[0029] The control system of the clothing-making robot is the key to its normal operation. If the control system experiences a program crash or unresponsiveness, the robot will be unable to continue performing clothing-making tasks. This situation may be caused by software vulnerabilities, program errors, or external electromagnetic interference, etc.

[0030] The clothing-making robot is equipped with various sensors to sense various parameters and states during the clothing-making process. If a sensor fails, such as a dirty camera lens, a malfunction of the lidar transmitter and receiver, etc., the robot will be unable to accurately obtain information during the clothing-making process.

[0031] The runaway phenomenon refers to the abnormal phenomenon of the robot accelerating out of control during operation. This may be caused by controller failures, motor driver failures, sensor signal interference, or brake system failures, etc. The runaway phenomenon will not only have a serious impact on the clothing-making process, but may also pose a safety threat to surrounding equipment and personnel.

[0032] Mechanical structure failures are also one of the common abnormal behaviors of the clothing-making robot. For example, the robot arm and joints may move inflexibly, which may be due to poor lubrication or wear of mechanical components. In addition, inaccurate robot positioning may also be caused by malfunctions or improper adjustment of the positioning system.

[0033] An abnormal connection state between the clothing-making robot and the controller or network may also cause abnormal behaviors of the robot. For example, unstable network connections or faults in the communication line between the controller and the robot may cause the robot to be unable to receive correct instructions or unable to feedback status information to the controller.

[0034] The evaluation and optimization analysis unit judges the system operation performance based on evaluation indicators such as 3D reconstruction accuracy, object recognition accuracy, physical property prediction error, robot motion imitation accuracy, and clothing-making task completion quality, and sends the judgment information to the background terminal to continuously optimize the system performance.

[0035] Working principle of the present invention: During use, by integrating physical models and object recognition technologies into a Neural Radiance Field (NeRF), training is carried out through the video data of workers' operations. Finally, it drives an embodied robot to complete the clothing manufacturing task, enabling it to recognize clothes and understand their physical properties, thereby realizing an automated clothing manufacturing process. Moreover, through real-time monitoring and alarming, abnormal behaviors of the clothing manufacturing robot can be promptly detected and corrected, ensuring the smooth progress of the clothing manufacturing process, improving production efficiency and product quality, effectively preventing safety accidents caused by robot operation failures, guaranteeing the personal safety of operators, and contributing to the development of the clothing industry towards the direction of intelligence and automation.
