Abstract

The invention discloses a method and device for avoiding obstacles by an unmanned aerial vehicle, equipment and a storage medium. The method comprises the following steps: reconstructing a three-dimensional map based on an acquired image of an obstacle and a monocular Visual SLAM framework to obtain the location of an unmanned aerial vehicle and an axis distance between the unmanned aerial vehicleand the obstacle; according to the flight direction of the unmanned aerial vehicle, projecting the unmanned aerial vehicle; determining whether the projection of the unmanned aerial vehicle in a flight direction is intersected with the plane where the obstacle is located; if so, acquiring an edge point at a shortest distance to the projection center of the unmanned aerial vehicle on the obstacle;forming a preset safety-radius collision circle by using the edge point as the center of the circle; according to the relative positions of the unmanned aerial vehicle and the obstacle as well as thedriving speed of the unmanned aerial vehicle, calculating a deflection angle of the unmanned aerial vehicle; and carrying out route planning based on the collision circle, the deflection angle, the axis distance, and the edge point, enabling the unmanned aerial vehicle to fly around the obstacle via the boundary of the collision circle. Therefore, detection of obstacles and planning of obstacle avoidance paths for unmanned aerial vehicles are realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of UAV protection, in particular to a method, device, equipment and storage medium for UAV avoiding obstacles. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of UAV technology, the application field of UAV is also expanding, but UAV will face the safety threats of mountains, buildings and danger areas during flight, among which the automatic obstacle avoidance system is The important safety guarantee for drones to successfully complete flight missions reflects the intelligence and safety of drones to a large extent. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the UAV obstacle avoidance system. [0003] The existing UAV obstacle avoidance technology includes infrared and laser ranging to realize UAV obstacle avoidance, but infrared and laser obstacle avoidance are easily affected and interfered by the external environment, resulting in inaccurate measured distances. There is a problem that ...
