Plant protection drone operation route planning method and plant protection drone

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicles and in particular relates to an operating route planning method for a plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle and the plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle. The planning method comprises the following steps: acquiring boundary information of an operating land, and acquiring a boundary line of the operating land accordingto the boundary information of the operating land; determining an operation starting side, and drawing multiple navigation path segments parallel to the operation starting side according to the boundary information of the operating land, wherein the distance between two adjacent navigation path segments is a sprinkling width; and determining the route planning direction according to the operationstarting side, and performing route planning based on the navigation path segments until all waypoints in the operating land are covered, wherein the intersections between the navigation path segmentsand the boundary line are the waypoints. According to the operating route planning method and the plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle, an appropriate operating route can be rapidly planned according to the preset navigation path segments, so that the accurate operating coverage rate is improved, the phenomena such as missing sprinkling and excessive sprinkling are effectively reduced, the operating efficiency is improved, and crop growth is facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of drones, in particular to a plant protection drone operation route planning method and a plant protection drone. Background technique [0002] With the development of plant protection UAV technology, more and more users have begun to use UAVs for plant protection operations, especially the use of UAVs for pesticide spraying and chemical fertilizer spraying, which has the advantages of small damage to crops, high utilization rate of pesticides, Reduce labor intensity and other advantages. [0003] When plant protection UAVs perform plant protection operations, they usually operate according to the established flight route or the operator controls the flight of the UAV through the remote control. If the UAV is to fly according to the established flight route, route planning needs to be carried out in advance, that is, the computer software system calculates a reasonable route covering the land based on the ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] The flight route planned by the existing route planning method often has the phenomenon of missing spray, mis-spray or over-spray, and cannot accurately cover the land, especially for concave-shaped land, there will be a phenomenon that the route exceeds the set area. Cross the outside of the plot, allowing the pesticide to be sprayed outside the plot
