Abstract

A depth estimation method based on the monocular camera comprises the following steps: carrying out semantic segmentation on a picture acquired by a monocular camera; extracting the picture pieces andsegmenting the picture pieces into N sub-pictures, so that each sub-picture comprises the extracted key points; key point, obtaining a plurality of sub-pictures, estimating the visual depth and / or the normal vector of a plane corresponding to each sub-picture, searching an outlier according to the visual depth and / or the normal vector of the plane corresponding to each sub-picture, correcting a semantic segmentation result according to the searched outlier, and determining the depth information of the picture according to the corrected semantic segmentation result. And the determined depth information is more accurate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of robots, and in particular relates to a depth estimation method, device and equipment based on a monocular camera. Background technique [0002] Autonomous mobile robot navigation technology is an important research direction in the field of intelligent robots, and the visual navigation method has the advantages of large amount of information, high flexibility, and low cost. Simultaneous positioning and mapping technology of robot vision is a key basic technology of mobile robots, flying robots and other robotic systems, and has indispensable characteristics. For robot systems used in large scenes (such as airports, indoor plazas, urban buildings, etc.), due to the characteristics of large spatial scales, infrequent or often no GPS signals, and many spatial planes, the use of the environment makes its visual depth estimation difficult. Has a certain degree of difficulty. [0003] One of the current depth estimatio...
