Problems solved by technology

However, this type of robot system cannot complete the automatic loading and unloading of books, and the follow-up work of book sorting and loading and unloading still needs to be done manually.
[0006] Generally speaking, although some robot system design ideas applied to libraries have appeared in recent years, there is still no complete and mature technology and equipment that can be promoted in the library field.

Embodiment 1

[0083] The following takes a student who pre-orders books for borrowing as an example to illustrate the library service system in detail.

[0084] The student first makes a book reservation on the mobile phone client, and the client uploads the student's reservation information to the upper computer of the library, and the upper computer sorts out the reservation information and dispatches the service robot. The dispatched robot acquires reserved books and puts them on a specific reserved bookshelf, and at the same time feeds back information about the successful reservation (including reserved bookshelf number) to the student through the client. When the student arrives at the library, find the reserved bookshelf (there is a card reader installed on the bookshelf, which can identify the personal borrowing card information), and put the borrowing card close to the sensing area to complete the borrowing and reserved books.

Embodiment 2

[0086] Taking a student who borrows books from the library as an example, the library service system will be described in detail below.

[0087] After the student arrives at the library, he will sit in the waiting area. If he needs robot service, he only needs to scan the QR code next to the seat (the QR code records the position information of the seat) through the mobile phone client, and the Send the real-time location to the library host computer and apply for robot service. At this time, the host will schedule the idle robot to arrive at the student's location according to the working status of each robot. Students can select borrowing services on the touch screen of the robot (service categories include book borrowing, preview, purchase of beverages, coffee or free drinking water, etc.), swipe the library card in the card swiping area according to the touch screen prompts, and then transfer the books they want to borrow Names or keywords are input on the touch screen of...

Embodiment 3

[0089] Taking a tourist and his friends who come to the library for a rest visit as an example, the library service system will be described in detail below.

[0090] Similar to Embodiment 2, the tourist applies for robot service, the difference is that the tourist chooses to purchase a drink to cool off the heat, and at this time, various drinks and prices provided by the library are displayed on the screen for the tourist to choose (the principle is similar to a vending machine) , after completing the purchase, the robot will return to the waiting area and wait for the host computer to dispatch again. After sitting in the waiting area for a while, the tourist’s friend came in a hurry, but there was no water cup, so he applied for the robot service and chose the free drinking water service. At this time, the robot will provide disposable paper cups and drinking water (similar to the drinking water station at the airport) .

[0091] The present invention mainly uses seven tec...

Abstract

The present invention discloses a system and method of library service based on a robot. A RFID electronic tag and a radio frequency inductor are employed to realize construction of a library indoor map and the position location of a robot, and the robot realizes active navigation according to the positions of the library map and the robot itself to facilitate allowing the robot to directly drive to a shelf where a book is located. The ingenious design of a mechanical structure for book access is employed to reduce the cost and facilitate control. bar codes are pasted at the spine of a book and a bar-code identifier is combined to facilitate realization of book location and allow the identification effect to be more accurate. The robot performs data excavation according to the book information base and reader borrowing recording base of the library to push books which accord with the readers' interest and provide better service experience for the readers. The robot can provide service such as beverage sale, coffee ordering, free drinking water except for basic book borrowing service so as to allow the readers to enjoy a more comfortable reading environment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of robots, and relates to technologies such as robot navigation, book positioning, book access mechanism design, data mining, multi-robot collaborative operation, local area network communication technology, and mobile phone APP design, especially a robot-based library service system and methods. Background technique [0002] As an efficient automation equipment, robots have played a huge role in modern manufacturing industries such as automobiles, machinery, and aerospace. Applying robots to the daily management and services of libraries can alleviate the problems of high labor intensity and low efficiency of current library personnel. [0003] The existing library robot system, such as the auxiliary robot system of the self-service library, the self-service library is a mini library for a small number of readers. The borrowing and returning of books is completely done by readers without manual service. The library...
