Embodiment Construction

[0032] The specific implementation manners of the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation manners described here are only used to illustrate and explain the embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the embodiments of the present invention.

[0033] Such as figure 1 As shown, a plurality of obstacles B1, B2, etc., a plurality of mobile robots A0, A1, etc., and a plurality of node areas N1, N2 etc. Wherein, the dense area can be predetermined according to needs, for example, it can refer to the area in the warehouse, the multiple mobile robots A0, A1 can refer to multiple logistics robots, and through the mobile robots A0, A1 Running mobile can carry goods, but when multiple logistics robots are running at the same time, it may cause conflicts. Wherein, the sizes of different node areas N1 and N2 may be equal, which ...

Abstract

Embodiments of the invention provide a scheduling method and system for multiple mobile robots, and belong to the field of robots. The scheduling method for the multiple mobile robots includes the steps of acquiring a plurality of sets of historical node region sequences corresponding to an initial position and a planned path, a mobile robot being configured to pass only from the assigned node sequence; conducting statistics on corresponding historical execution parameters when the mobile robot executes the plurality of sets of historical node region sequences; and when detecting a schedulingrequest for scheduling the mobile robot from the initial position to the planned path, selecting a first historical node region sequence from the plurality of sets of historical node region sequencesbased on the statistical result of the historical execution parameters, and assigning the selected first historical node region sequence to the mobile robot. Thus, the efficiency of centralized computing of a server is increased, the response efficiency of the server is optimized, and the transportation efficiency of the mobile robots in dense areas is also improved at the same time.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of robots, in particular to a scheduling method and system for multiple mobile robots. Background technique [0002] Deploying multiple mobile robots in a dense area (such as a logistics warehouse area) and using these mobile robots to complete tasks such as handling goods to replace manual labor is the current research focus in the field of the Internet of Things. [0003] In order to avoid collisions between multiple mobile robots in dense areas during operation, the following two different processing schemes are generally adopted at present: First, the robots have good conflict resolution capabilities through the current local environment information of the robots ; The second is centralized management conflict resolution, which mainly eliminates conflicts by segmenting the robot's motion path. [0004] However, the inventors of the present application found that there are at least the following defects in the abo...
