Method of implementing intelligent obstacle-surmounting

Abstract

The invention relates to a method of implementing intelligent obstacle-surmounting. The method includes: 1, providing a service robot to implement intelligent obstacle-surmounting; 2, using the service robot comprising a telescopic mechanism, an infrared sensor, a camera, an image processor and an ARM9 master controller. The telescopic mechanism can telescope vertically. The infrared sensor is used for detecting an infrared forward distance from an obstacle ahead to the service robot. The camera arranged on the telescopic mechanism is used for shooting an image of the obstacle ahead. The image processor is used for processing the image of the obstacle. The master controller is connected with the telescopic mechanism, the infrared sensor, the camera and the image processor. A determination is made for whether or not to start the camera and the image processor on the basis of the infrared forward distance, and telescoping of the telescopic mechanism is controlled on the basis of image processing results.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of robot control, in particular to a method for realizing intelligent obstacle surmounting. Background technique [0002] Service robots are a young member of the robot family, which can be divided into professional field service robots and personal / home service robots. Service robots have a wide range of applications, mainly engaged in maintenance, repair, transportation, cleaning, security, rescue, guardianship, etc. Work. [0003] Data show that at present, at least 48 countries in the world are developing robots, of which 25 countries have set foot in the development of service robots. In Japan, North America and Europe, seven types of more than 40 service robots have entered experimental and semi-commercial applications so far. In recent years, the global service robot market has maintained a rapid growth rate. The aging of the global population has brought about a large number of problems, such as care for the...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, the service robot in the prior art has the following defects: (1) the distance measurement mode is single, only relying on a distance measurement method in infrared range measurement or ultrasonic range measurement to measure the distance of obstacles ahead, often due to The accuracy of distance equipment leads to inaccurate distance measurement; (2) Obstacle surmounting is not intelligent enough, and service robots often encounter obstacles in the process of advancing. In the prior art, stop and wait instructions are generally adopted or only based on the height of obstacles. Obstacle surmounting, the former leads to low working efficiency of the service robot, and the latter is difficult to successfully surmount the obstacle when the obstacle is too long vertically
