Problems solved by technology

If the intelligent algorithm is directly used when the robot starts to work, and the robot scans the environment, draws up a map and plans a path, there may be a risk that the robot will bump into obstacles, and some household intelligent robots are relatively large in size and weight. For robots, once a collision with an obstacle occurs, it is likely to cause varying degrees of damage to indoor furniture, home appliances or the robot itself

Embodiment Construction

[0023] figure 1 Construct a map schematic for the present invention. Such as figure 1 As shown, since the mobile robot is in the space X to be worked, the solid blocks of various shapes scattered in the space X to be worked are a plurality of obstacles M. Specifically, the process of building a map and setting a work point from a mobile robot is as follows:

[0024] First, put the self-mobile robot into the space X to be operated, which is a certain room, such as a living room, and establish a coordinate system corresponding to the space to be operated, which can be a Cartesian coordinate system or a polar coordinate system; Secondly, manual control guides the self-mobile robot to walk in an open area avoiding obstacles M in the work space X to avoid unnecessary collisions, figure 1 The dotted line in is the walking path P of the self-mobile robot; in the process of walking, the position of the obstacle M collected by the self-mobile robot in the space to be worked is corre...

Abstract

The invention provides a map construction method utilizing a mobile robot and a work method utilizing the map. The map construction method comprises steps that 1, the mobile robot is placed in a to-be-worked space, and a coordinate system corresponding to the to-be-worked space is established; and 2, the mobile robot is guided through artificial control to walk in a path for avoiding obstacles, the surrounding environment information is acquired in the walking process, and an initial to-be-worked space map is established in the coordinate system according to the environment information. Through the map construction method, not only can the mobile robot be prevented from bumping in a motion process during map construction, but also real-time update for the map in a work process and increase / decrease adjustment on work points can be realized, work accuracy of the mobile robot can be simply and rapidly improved, and thereby work efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for constructing a map from a mobile robot and an operation method using the map, belonging to the technical field of daily household appliance manufacturing. Background technique [0002] Household intelligent service robots are widely used for their convenient control and flexible walking. The common working mode of existing household intelligent service robots is to enable the robot to rely on itself to obtain environmental information and plan its own walking route from the beginning of work. If the intelligent algorithm is directly used when the robot starts to work, and the robot scans the environment, draws up a map and plans a path, there may be a risk that the robot will bump into obstacles, and some household intelligent robots are relatively large in size and weight. For robots, once a collision with an obstacle occurs, it is likely to cause varying degrees of damage to indoor furniture, home appliances or t...
