A kind of method that sweeping robot as described in claim 1 judges self-position, comprising the following steps:
S1, charge point is positioned as origin, allows sweeping robot in all walking one times of cleaning region, and region will be cleaned In each place top image, with the azimuth of origin, be combined preservation at a distance from origin;Ultimately form a cleaning The top image matrix in region, is stored in memory unit;
S2, when sweeping robot positions self-position, the camera positioned at robot body bottom end is by the ground The top image of point is filmed and passes to image analyzing unit;
The pixel and construction characteristic for the top image that S3, image analyzing unit take camera are analyzed, and Analysis result is sent to image comparison unit;
The top in top image information and memory unit that S4, image comparison unit send over image analyzing unit Image array compares, and top image identical with the top image information is found from top image matrix;
S5, after finding top image, azimuth, the distance in the place and origin are determined by top image matrix, thus It can accurately determine the self-position of sweeping robot.
Compared with prior art, the advantages and positive effects of the present invention are:
The present invention by robot body top be arranged camera and in the control module be arranged image analyzing unit, The design method of image comparison unit allows sweeping robot according to the construction characteristic of cleaning overlying regions to machine of sweeping the floor Position where people positions, and positioning more rapidly and accurately, avoids sweeping robot and occurs during cleaning The situation of off-course deviation;And sweeping robot can position position when needing to charge, straight after charging It takes back the position location to continue to sweep, the situation for avoiding repetition wipe clean region occurs;To improve machine of sweeping the floor Use while task efficiency to people brings great convenience.
Detailed description of the invention
In order to more clearly explain the embodiment of the invention or the technical proposal in the existing technology, to embodiment or will show below There is attached drawing needed in technical description to be briefly described, it should be apparent that, the accompanying drawings in the following description is only this Some embodiments of invention without any creative labor, may be used also for those of ordinary skill in the art To obtain other drawings based on these drawings.
Fig. 1 is frame construction drawing of the invention;
Fig. 2 is the connection framework figure of detection module.
Specific embodiment
Following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and technical solution in the embodiment of the present invention carries out clear, complete Site preparation description, it is clear that described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, instead of all the embodiments.It is based on Embodiment in the present invention, it is obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts every other Embodiment, any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement and so on should all be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2, it is an object of the invention to propose a kind of sweeping robot and its judge the side of self-position Method can make sweeping robot accurately judge the location of itself, and carry out cleaning operation by the path of planning.
Based on above-mentioned purpose, present invention provide the technical scheme that
A kind of sweeping robot, comprising: sweeping robot ontology is placed in the camera of sweeping robot bodies top;It sweeps Floor-washing robot ontology includes: power plant module, walking module, cleaning module, detection module and control module.The power plant module packet Include rechargeable battery and charging control circuit;The walking module includes traveling wheel group and driving motor;The cleaning module packet Include brush, brush motor, while brush, while brush motor and dirt box;The detection module includes collision detection, falls detection, liftoff inspection It surveys, battery capacity detects and recharge signal detection;The detection module further includes gyroscope and code-disc, to detect machine of sweeping the floor The moving distance and movement speed of people;The control module includes image analyzing unit, image comparison unit, processing unit, note Recall unit;Image analyzing unit signal input part and camera signals output end connection, the output of image analyzing unit signal End connect respectively with the signal input part of memory unit, image comparison unit, the signal output end of detection module respectively with memory The signal input part connection of unit, processing unit, the signal output end of memory unit and the signal input part of image comparison unit Connection, the signal input part of the signal output end connection processing unit of image comparison unit, the signal output end point of processing unit Not Lian Jie walking module, cleaning module signal input part.
The detection module includes collision detection unit, falls detection unit, liftoff detection unit, battery capacity detection list Member, gyroscope and code-disc;Collision detection unit, to fall detection unit, liftoff detection unit, gyroscope and code-disc single with memory First connection, battery capacity detection unit and processing unit connection.
Camera is installed at the top of sweeping robot, and camera is monocular cam, flutters catch ceiling image straight up. Camera gets off the filming image of ceiling, carries out gray proces, and captured photo is carried out processes pixel.Comparison two The picture pixels of the photo of short period of time, sweeping robot can clearly judge the difference of how many pixel, in conjunction with code Disk and gyroscope, so that it may know sweeping robot in which orientation, how many distance moved.
Sweeping robot is according to the construction characteristic of ceiling, such as the connection straight line of beam or wall and ceiling, it can be determined that Sweeping robot itself and beam or straight line angle carry out linear rows to select to carry out path planning with beam or straight line for reference It walks or " bow " font is walked.Beam and straight line being presented as in photograph pixel, continuous straight and long and narrow pixel group.
Sweeping robot is acquired by this photograph image to ceiling, stores the pixel characteristic of each position.Each The position in region to be cleaned can all form a corresponding pixel map on the ceiling.When sweeping robot is around region to be cleaned After a week, complete ceiling image array has been established substantially.Sweeping robot is according to the pixel and feature of ceiling image, just It can determine the corresponding position on ground.
Come if sweeping robot is lifted, is put into another position from a position, according to the characteristics of image of ceiling, It can be determined that the specific location for being in ground.Namely construct the specific orientation on map.
In this way, if it is low to encounter electricity, needing to return to charge when sweeping robot carries out clean up task.At this point, mark Remember that a ceiling characteristics of image, sweeping robot determine the clean position of the interruption, return to charge.Completion to be charged, then The aforementioned clean position of interruption is returned to, clean up task is continued to execute.The cleaning efficiency that helps to improve sweeping robot, avoids It has no progeny, repeats the region for cleaning cleaned mistake.
Each position on map, sweeping robot are all tagged to the characteristics of image position of ceiling, for example label fills The position in power station is beneficial to sweeping robot and more quickly finds charging station, therefore can reduce search charging station signal Time, charging station can be quickly found, quickly return charging.
For the barrier of fixations some on ground, such as furniture, sweeping robot can pass through when encountering barrier The sensors such as collision detection stop to advance, and obstacle object one week.When such case occurs, the region immovable past always, It can be equally marked in image array on the ceiling.It, can avoiding obstacles when next time encounters.
This method makes the positioning of sweeping robot more accurate, avoids and path deviation occurs using code-disc and gyroscope Situation, use while improving the cleaning efficiency of sweeping robot to people brings great convenience.
