Abstract

The invention relates to a calibration method suitable for a visual servo plug-pull operation, and belongs to the field of image identification. The problems that servo alignment control precision based on the visual servo is low, and the effect of the plug-pull operation controlled by an open loop is poor in a plug-pull stage are solved; the calibration method suitable for the visual servo plug-pull operation is provided, an image containing pins, a socket and a plug clamping device is collected by using a camera; a depth learning algorithm is utilized to obtain a center point of each pin inthe socket and the center point of each calibration board on the plug clamping device; then a socket middle point coordinate, a socket deflection angle, a plug clamping device middle point and a plugclamping device deflection angle are calculated; the point coordinate is transferred into a joint coordinate system at the tail end of a mechanical arm of a robot; the socket middle point coordinatesin a tail end coordinate system of the robot is obtained; a visual servo image feature error is calculated in the tail end coordinate system; and a visual servo feature is sent to a robot visual servoalgorithm, and the robot is controlled to move. According to the method, the operation precision in visual servo plug-pull operation is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a calibration method suitable for visual servo plugging and unplugging operations. Background technique [0002] At present, various types of robots and mechanical arms are widely used in industrial automation, and the use of robots for assembly operations is even more widely used. However, getting the robot to precisely align with the slot in the assembly operation is a major difficulty in this operation. One of the more difficult assembly operations is the plug socket assembly operation. Most of the visual servoing technologies aim the target at a fixed position in the image, which is determined by humans based on specific experience or mechanical structure measurement. In order to protect the durability of the socket and the plug, we often use the visual servo method to make the plug accurately align with the socket. However, since the visual servo is an open-loop control during the insertion and removal process after ser...
