Abstract

This application discloses a robot localization method, a mobile robot, and a storage medium. The robot localization method includes: extracting line segments from a laser point cloud frame to obtain multiple current line segments; extracting line segments within the vicinity of the current predicted pose from a laser prior map to obtain multiple reference line segments; matching the multiple current line segments and multiple reference line segments to obtain successfully matched line segment pairs; calculating the angle of the mobile robot based on the line segment pairs; and then searching for the position of the mobile robot in the laser prior map based on the angle using a branch and bound method. By distinguishing between angle and position in pose determination, the geometric information detected by the laser is fully utilized for angle calculation first. When searching for pose in the laser prior map using the branch and bound method, only position search is required, reducing the number of candidate solutions during the matching process, greatly reducing computational complexity, and improving the accuracy and efficiency of laser matching.
