Abstract

The invention discloses a parameter acqusition system and method during stair climbing of a four-tentacle tracked robot. The system comprises a four-tentacle tracked robot platform and a Microsoft KinectXBOX360 camera carried on the platform. The method comprises the following steps: fusing an RGB (Red, Green and Blue) image and depth image information acquired by the Microsoft KinectXBOX360 camera and calculating related parameters of a stairs so as to control the four-tentacle tracked robot to perform stair climbing action. The embodiment of the invention is mainly used for parameter calculation of the stairs, particularly controlling the postures of four tentacles during stair climbing of the four-tentacle tracked robot.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention discloses a system and method for acquiring stair-climbing parameters of a four-antenna crawler robot, and relates to the technical fields of robot vision and pattern recognition. Background technique [0002] Mobile robots have the ability to autonomously identify the parameters of stairs in indoor or artificial outdoor environments, which plays an important role in search and rescue and autonomous navigation in disasters. The adaptability of the tracked robot to the terrain makes it a particularly suitable platform for autonomous stair-climbing research. The mobile robot is equipped with a monocular camera, binocular camera, imaging radar and laser imaging equipment to obtain environmental information to enable the robot to navigate autonomously. At present, these sensing devices cannot solve the function of acquiring staircase parameters very well, and the devices are expensive. [0003] Kinect XBOX360 is a 3D somatosensory camera fr...
