Target following control method of mobile robot

Abstract

The invention discloses a target following control method of a mobile robot. The target following control method comprises the steps of arranging a triangular camera set on the mobile robot, and distributing a corresponding ID number and a visual angle range; acquiring an identity characteristic of a following target, and performing uploading and storage of the identity characteristic; detecting the identity characteristic of a to-be-followed target and uploading the identity characteristic of the to-be-followed target to a cloud server, performing characteristic matching by the cloud server, when matching succeeds, determining and locking the to-be-followed target as the following target; tracking the locked following target by a person, and obtaining relative direction between the following target and the mobile robot; performing real-time detection on the locked following target for obtaining a relative distance through calculation; determining a moving route according to the obtained relative directions and relative distance between the following target and the mobile robot, and making the mobile robot move to the following object according to the moving route. The target following control method has higher characteristic detecting function and higher automatic control function. Furthermore the target following control method can be well used for a robot tracking process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a target following control method of a mobile robot, which belongs to the field of robot application technology. Background technique [0002] With the development of artificial intelligence technology, robots are increasingly used in various scenarios. For example, robots for entertainment, unmanned vehicles, robot dogs, and humanoid robots with a high degree of balance have appeared. But what's more, robots are now entering our daily life and providing services for humans, such as food delivery robots in restaurants. [0003] In many cases, when a robot provides services, it is usually required that the robot itself can locate its own location and the location of the service object. For example, in a museum, there may be a robot that can provide explanation services. At this time, a method that allows the robot to follow customers in real time is needed. The current tracking technology must first locate. The usual position...
