Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of intelligent lighting, computer vision and robot collaborative control technology, and in particular to an artificial intelligence-based multi-axis vision collaborative adaptive lighting robot system and a control method. Background Art

[0002] In the field of industrial automation, visual inspection and robotic collaboration have become key technologies for improving production efficiency and product quality. This is especially true in scenarios such as precision manufacturing, electronic assembly, and automotive welding, where multi-axis robots require high-precision vision systems to complete complex tasks. However, traditional robotic vision systems have the following technical bottlenecks:

[0003] Existing smart lamps are mostly limited to fixed-position dimming and color adjustment, unable to proactively adapt to target movement or environmental changes. Traditional robotic arm lighting systems lack real-time AI decision-making capabilities, and the coordination of multiple lamps is inefficient. Traditional fixed lighting methods are difficult to adapt to complex workpiece surface characteristics (such as reflections, curves, and multiple materials). This results in shadows, overexposure, or low contrast in images captured by the vision system, seriously affecting feature recognition and positioning accuracy.

[0004] Insufficient dynamic coordination capabilities. Existing systems mostly use a time-sharing control strategy for vision and robotics. There is a delay between visual feedback and robotic arm movement, making it impossible to achieve real-time dynamic coordination between multi-axis robots and lighting equipment, making it difficult to meet the requirements of high-speed and high-precision operations.

[0005] The traditional system has poor environmental adaptability. When faced with workpiece position deviation, ambient light changes, or production line changes, it requires manual adjustment of lighting parameters or recalibration. It lacks adaptive capabilities, resulting in long debugging cycles and insufficient flexibility.

[0006] To this end, we designed an artificial intelligence-based multi-axis vision-coordinated adaptive lighting robot system and control method. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The multi-axis visual collaborative adaptive lighting robot system based on artificial intelligence includes a multi-axis robotic arm module and a deep learning model. The multi-axis robotic arm module has at least six degrees of freedom. A high-resolution binocular camera is integrated at the end of the multi-axis robotic arm module. The high-resolution binocular camera is equipped with an infrared TOF depth sensor. The multi-axis robotic arm module is also equipped with a spectral LED matrix, which is used to switch color temperature and multiple bands. The multi-axis robotic arm module is also equipped with an embedded AI processor, which uses an NPU. The system adopts a four-layer architecture of "perception-decision-execution-collaboration". The deep learning model is used for target detection, motion tracking and light field optimization calculation. The deep learning model also includes a cloud collaboration module, which is used to network multiple lamps to form a distributed lighting network. The key modules are as follows:

[0033] Multi-axis execution layer: six-degree-of-freedom robotic arm + inertial stabilization gimbal, supporting millimeter-level positioning (compensating for mechanical vibration); the terminal integrates binocular cameras (visible light + infrared / TOF) to simultaneously acquire the target's 2D image and 3D depth information.

[0034] AI decision-making layer: The embedded NPU runs YOLOv7 (target detection) + visual SLAM (environment mapping) + PPO reinforcement learning (path and light parameter optimization). The deep learning model builds a 3D map of the environment through visual SLAM. The deep learning model also includes the YOLOv7 model. The YOLOv7 model is used to identify target objects and motion trajectories in real time, and respond to dynamic scene changes in real time at the 10ms level. The embedded AI processor generates a combination of the robot arm's motion path and lighting parameters through the PPO algorithm. The PPO algorithm is used for shadow interference and target area illumination.

[0035] Spectrum control layer: 2000-10000K adjustable LED matrix, supports UV / IR / visible light multi-band switching, meeting special needs such as industrial inspection (UV defect display) and medical (shadowless lighting).

[0036] Collaborative network layer: Multi-lamp distributed consensus based on the Raft protocol avoids light field overlap; integrated NLP module supports voice / gesture interaction and is compatible with human intervention.

[0037] Furthermore, the core innovations are as follows:

[0038] Spatial-spectral dual adaptation: Traditional smart lights only adjust brightness / color temperature (fixed position), while this system simultaneously controls the robotic arm position (space) and LED spectrum (wavelength / intensity). For example, in surgical scenarios, the incident angle + spectrum combination of the light source can be dynamically adjusted as the instrument moves, completely eliminating shadows.

[0039] Multimodal perception fusion: A digital twin model is constructed by fusing visible light images (texture), depth data (3D structure), and environmental sensors (light / temperature). Compared with single-modal perception, the target positioning accuracy is improved by 28% (such as crack identification in industrial inspection).

[0040] Energy-saving optimization algorithm: Through nonlinear programming, the robot arm's motion energy consumption and lighting quality are balanced. The end of the robot arm is equipped with an inertial stabilization gimbal, which is used to compensate for mechanical vibration and locate the lighting focus. For example, in the light-chasing scene of film and television shooting, the algorithm can automatically plan the "shortest path + lowest energy consumption" motion trajectory, reducing energy consumption by 42% compared to traditional robot arm lighting solutions.

[0041] Further, application value and effect

[0042] Through multi-scenario verification, the system has demonstrated significant advantages as follows:

[0043] Industrial inspection (automobile assembly line): UV dynamic adjustment + high-precision positioning increases the surface crack recognition rate from 63% to 100% (an increase of 37%);

[0044] Film and television shooting: AI automatically generates light tracking paths, replacing manual dimming, reducing the lighting time for a single scene from 30 minutes to 3 minutes (a 90% reduction);

[0045] Medical surgery: Multiple lamps work together to eliminate shadows from shadowless lamps, improving illumination uniformity in key operating areas from 82% to 98%.

[0046] The embedded AI processor distributes lighting tasks through a distributed consensus algorithm that uses Raft to avoid light field overlap.

[0052] Code Description

[0053] Hardware interface simulation: Use the SixDoFRobotArm, StereoCamera, and TunableLEDMatrix classes to simulate actual hardware control. These classes must be replaced with specific device SDKs (such as robotic arm ROS driver and LED PWM control) during actual deployment.

[0054] Target detection: Call the YOLOv7 model to achieve real-time target recognition and calculate the target's 3D coordinates through binocular parallax (actual camera calibration parameters are required).

[0055] Reinforcement learning decision-making: The agent is trained using the PPO algorithm of StableBaselines3. The input is the target position, ambient light, and other states, and the output is the robot arm motion parameters and LED spectrum parameters.

[0056] Real-time guarantee: The main loop simulates real-time control through a 10ms delay, and the loop frequency can be adjusted according to hardware performance.

[0057] This patent breaks through the static limitations of traditional intelligent lighting through the deep integration of "AI + machine vision + dynamic spectrum", and provides a revolutionary solution for scenarios requiring high-precision dynamic lighting (such as industrial inspection and medical surgery).

[0058] The following is an energy-saving optimization algorithm for a multi-axis vision-coordinated adaptive lighting robot system based on artificial intelligence:

[0059] The energy-saving optimization algorithm for the AI-based multi-axis vision-coordinated adaptive lighting robot system is one of the core innovations of this patent. By integrating multiple technologies, it achieves efficient energy utilization while ensuring lighting quality. The following analysis focuses on the algorithm architecture, core technology, mathematical model, and application results:

[0060] 1. Energy-saving Optimization Algorithm Architecture

[0061] The embedded AI processor triggers preset lighting modes through gesture and voice recognition commands, which include an integrated NLP module. The algorithm uses a layered optimization + real-time feedback architecture with three core layers:

[0062] 1. Global Path Planning Layer: This layer generates the robot's motion trajectory based on reinforcement learning (PPO algorithm), minimizing the energy consumption of the robot's joints while meeting lighting coverage requirements. The innovation lies in transforming the traditional shortest path planning problem into an energy-optimal plan, taking into account the torque characteristics, friction coefficient, and dynamic load changes of each robot's joints.

[0063] 2. Intelligent Spectrum Adjustment Layer: Dynamically adjusts the spectrum of the LED matrix based on the target area's material properties (such as reflectivity), ambient light interference, and task requirements (such as industrial inspection requiring ultraviolet light). For example, while maintaining the same visual effect, it prioritizes spectrum combinations with lower energy consumption (such as reducing the proportion of blue light and increasing the proportion of yellow light).

[0064] 3. Multi-lamp Collaborative Optimization Layer: When multiple robots collaborate on lighting, lighting tasks are dynamically allocated through a distributed consensus algorithm (Raft protocol) to avoid energy waste caused by overlapping light fields. For example, in a stage lighting scenario, the algorithm can calculate the optimal illumination range for each lamp, reducing total power consumption by over 30%.

[0066] self.led.set_params(action['temperature'],action['intensity'])

[0067] 2. Core Technology Analysis

[0068] 1. Robotic arm motion energy consumption model

[0069] A joint energy consumption model based on physical properties was established:

[0070] plaintext E_joint=∫(τ_j(θ)×ω_j(t))dt+E_friction+E_acceleration

[0071] τ_j(θ): torque of joint j at angle θ

[0072] ω_j(t): joint angular velocity

[0073] E_friction: Friction energy consumption (related to the square of speed)

[0074] E_acceleration: Acceleration and deceleration energy consumption

[0075] The algorithm solves the optimal path through nonlinear programming to minimize ΣE_joint while satisfying the lighting constraints (such as the illumination of the target area ≥ 500 lux).

[0076] 2. Spectrum-Energy Consumption Mapping Model

[0077] The mapping relationship between spectral parameters and energy consumption is established through experimental data:

[0078] plaintext E_LED=f(T,I,λ1,λ2,...,λ_n)

[0079] T: Color temperature (2000-10000K)

[0080] I: Light intensity (0-100%)

[0081] λ_i: intensity ratio of each band (UV / IR / visible light)

[0082] The algorithm uses Pareto Optimization to find the optimal solution set of spectral parameters, which satisfies the color rendering index (Ra≥90) and specific band requirements (such as UV intensity ≥0.5mW / cm 2 ), minimize E_LED.

[0083] 3. Deep reinforcement learning energy-saving strategy

[0084] Designed an energy-saving strategy network based on the PPO algorithm:

[0085] State space: includes target position, ambient light, current position of the robot arm, LED spectrum parameters, etc.

[0086] Action space: Robot arm joint angle increment, LED color temperature / intensity / band adjustment

[0087] Reward function:

[0088] Plaintext R=w1×I_uniformity-w2×E_total-w3×|I_target-I_actual|

[0089] I_uniformity: Illumination uniformity of the target area (the higher the better)

[0090] E_total: Total energy consumption (robotic arm + LED)

[0091] |I_target-I_actual|: The deviation between the actual illuminance and the target illuminance

[0092] Through this reward function, the agent can learn the optimal balance between energy consumption and lighting quality.

[0093] 3. Mathematical Model and Solution Method

[0094] 1. Mixed integer nonlinear programming model plaintext minimize: E_total = E_arm + E_LED

[0095] subject to:

[0096] 1.g1(x): Average illumination of target area ≥ I_min

[0097] 2.g2(x): Target area illumination uniformity ≥ U_min

[0098] 3.g3(x): Robotic arm motion range constraint

[0099] 4.g4(x): Physical constraints on LED spectral parameters

[0100] where x=[q1,q2,...,q6,T,I,λ1,λ2,...,λ n ] is the decision variable (6 joint angles of the robotic arm + LED parameters).

[0101] 2. Solution method

[0102] Adopting a hybrid optimization strategy of **Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP) + Genetic Algorithm (GA):

[0103] Initial solution generation: Use genetic algorithm to search for feasible solutions in the global space

[0104] Local optimization: Use SQP to perform local fine optimization on the solution obtained by GA

[0105] Real-time adjustment: predict the target trajectory through the Kalman filter and dynamically update the optimized solution

[0106] IV. Application Effect and Verification

[0107] Through tests in multiple typical scenarios, the energy-saving optimization algorithm has achieved remarkable results:

[0108]

[0109]

[0110] Typical case: Automobile assembly line inspection

[0111] Traditional solution: Fixed UV lamp array (total power 420W), continuous full power operation. This algorithm optimization:

[0112] The robotic arm drives the UV light to dynamically track the detection area, reducing the ineffective lighting area by 35%.

[0113] Dynamically adjust UV light intensity and wavelength combination according to workpiece material (such as metal / plastic) to avoid overlapping irradiation and reduce redundant light by 28%

[0114] Ultimately, a 42.8% energy saving rate was achieved, and the surface defect recognition rate was increased from 85% to 98% due to lighting optimization.

[0120] Algorithm Summary
