Visual inspection and obstacle avoidance system for industrial robot

Abstract

The invention discloses a visual inspection and obstacle avoidance system for an industrial robot. The visual inspection and obstacle avoidance system comprises an industrial robot body, a camera module, a control module, a block-chain module and a wheel train module, wherein the camera module is used to acquire a real-time image of a front end of the industrial robot; the control module is used for receiving a target instruction sent from a user terminal to perform an obstacle avoidance task; the block-chain module is used for encrypting state information of the industrial robot and the target instruction and uploading the encrypted state information and target instruction to a blockchain; and the wheel train module is used for controlling the direction and turning angle of a plurality ofdriving wheels. The visual inspection and obstacle avoidance system for the industrial robot can plan an obstacle avoidance path more reasonably, is lower in failure rate, can handle a possible faultin time, and is suitable for the industrial robot operating at a high speed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of obstacle avoidance of industrial robots, in particular to an industrial robot visual detection and obstacle avoidance system. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of electronic information products, industrial robots, as a product of the times, are not only a pillar industry of a country, but also a symbol of a country's innovation ability and modernization level.

Problems solved by technology

However, whether it is multi-robot cooperation or human-machine cooperation, robot obstacle avoidance poses a huge challenge to the robotics field.

[0003] Existing industrial robots usually install a predetermined route for reciprocating motion, and install ultrasonic sensors, infrared sensors, etc. on the industrial robot to detect obstacles on the travel path. When obstacles are detected, the travel route cannot be adjusted in time, resulting in industrial The operating efficiency of robots is low. Some industrial robots are also equipped with cameras to judge whether there are obstacles on the robot’s running path through visual inspection. However, they are usually used in low-speed environments, and the processing speed requirements for visual inspection algorithms are not high.

In addition, it is impossible to record and trace back the operating status of industrial robots, resulting in the inability to quickly determine the cause of the failure when the industrial robot fails
