Description

Infrared top mark for indoor trackless navigation and identification method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of automatic control, and provides an infrared top mark for indoor trackless navigation and an identification method thereof.
Background
The navigation method of the indoor mobile robot can be divided into: rail-bound navigation and trackless navigation. The track navigation represented by the magnetic guide rail (or magnetic nails) has simple principle and easy control, but the track is fixed and the flexibility is not enough. Common trackless navigation includes inertial navigation, laser SLAM, visual SLAM, and roadmap navigation. The inertial navigation has the advantages that the accumulated error in the later period is larger, the cost of the laser SLAM equipment is higher, the anti-interference capability is weaker, the requirement of the visual SLAM on scene characteristics is higher, and the scene cannot be changed frequently (namely, the reliability is lower). The road sign navigation method can be divided into a natural road sign mode and an artificial road sign mode, wherein the natural road sign navigation is complex in calculation, low in robustness and relatively real-time. The artificial road sign is typically a visual tag, and can be divided into two modes, namely a natural light environment and an infrared light environment. The natural light environment mode is easily affected by the brightness, and the reliability is low. The visual tag under infrared light is usually an infrared light-emitting device or an infrared reflecting material, and an infrared band-pass filter is added in front of a lens for collecting images, so that the camera can capture road sign information with specific wavelength in the environment, and the interference of other indoor light can be greatly reduced in the mode, and the reliability is higher.
The infrared tag for navigation positioning contains two information mark points: relative pose mark points and ID count mark points. The relative pose mark points are used for calculating the relative pose coordinates of the robot and the tag, the ID count mark points are used for calculating the identity information of the tag (each tag has a unique ID and corresponds to a specific absolute pose coordinate), and the absolute pose coordinates of the robot can be calculated by combining the two. The similar infrared top mark positioning methods which are currently appeared are as follows: the equal-size three-point method of korean Stargazer, as shown in fig. 1, is to extract three coordinate points constituting a rectangular coordinate system in a tag as relative pose mark points, gray circles in fig. 1, all reflective discs in the tag are of the same size, and in order to determine origin, non-central symmetry needs to be satisfied, there is no reflective disc at one corner of a square tag, but the same result is one less ID count mark point, i.e., tag ID kind is directly halved.
Disclosure of Invention
