Detailed Description
It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that in the description of the present invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified or limited, the term "storage medium" may be various media that can store a computer program, such as ROM, RAM, a magnetic or optical disk, or the like. The term "processor" may be a chip or a circuit having a data processing function, such as a CPLD (Complex Programmable Logic Device), an FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array), an MCU (micro Controller Unit), a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), and a CPU (central processing Unit). The term "electronic device" may be any device having data processing and storage functions and may generally include fixed and mobile terminals. Fixed terminals such as desktop computers and the like. Mobile terminals such as mobile phones, PADs, and mobile robots, etc. Furthermore, the technical features mentioned in the different embodiments of the invention described later can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
In the following, the present invention proposes some preferred embodiments to teach those skilled in the art to implement.
The current warehousing robot can be conveniently deployed in the existing warehouse, after the storage position information of the warehouse is synchronized to the robot system, the robot can directly display the task information on a PAD of the robot near the storage position according to the task information, and a user is prompted to perform corresponding operation. The picking staff patrol in the storage area to find the robot which needs to execute the task. And after the robot is found, the robot moves to the front of the robot, and the operation is carried out according to the prompt information on the flat plate. The picking personnel no longer need to pull the picking trolley to move in the warehouse, the moving distance is greatly reduced, and the picking efficiency of the personnel is improved.
However, in the current robot scheduling method, when one of the robots encounters an obstacle or a target point cannot reach the obstacle during operation, the robot notifies the central scheduling system that its own forward path is blocked. The central dispatching system plans a path for the robot again according to the feedback of the robot. However, when the robot waits for the central dispatching system to feed back a new path, the robot cannot move or work continuously, and needs to wait for a while, which reduces the running efficiency of the robot.
FIG. 1 is a flowchart of an embodiment of a robot path updating method provided by the present application. The updating method can be applied to any one robot, and it should be noted that in a warehousing environment, a plurality of robots may exist, and the plurality of robots are in a decentralization relationship with each other, that is, when an information transmission relationship with another robot is involved in the updating method, the other robot is also applicable. When the steps are executed, the steps may be executed in sequence as in the flowchart, or multiple steps may be executed simultaneously according to the actual situation, which is not limited herein. The robot path updating method provided by the application comprises the following steps:
step S110, determining an initial path according to initial site information to control the first robot to work;
step S130, obtaining field updating information, and optimizing the initial path according to the field updating information to obtain an optimized path, wherein the field updating information is shared information of a second robot, and the second robot is configured to move according to a corresponding moving path and can obtain current scene information;
and S150, controlling the first robot to work according to the optimized path.
Through the implementation mode, the first robot can obtain the shared information uploaded by other robots, for example, the scene information detected by the second robot in the process of traveling is used for obtaining the abnormal information possibly existing in the initial path in advance, and determining the optimized path capable of avoiding the abnormal information, so that the time wasted in the prior art that the abnormal information is reported and the reported processing result is waited only after the abnormal information is encountered is saved, and further the working efficiency is improved.
The above steps will be specifically described with reference to specific examples.
In step S110, an initial path is determined according to the initial site information to control the first robot to work. Wherein the first robot is the robot currently running the method. The first robot is in communication connection with the server. The server may be a cloud server or a local server, and is not particularly limited. The server is used for receiving information such as robot individual information, robot cluster information, environment information, worker information, task information and the like. The server can be centralized, for example, the server is distributed in the cloud, and can also be erected in a local machine room; the server can also be distributed without a center, and is distributed and erected on a cloud end, a local place and a robot.
The decentralized distributed server refers to that each distributed node (which may be a server or a robot) synchronizes information. Thus comprising a centerless server with only robot nodes and no server nodes. The communication modes between the robots include but are not limited to wifi, bluetooth, laser, etc.
The server stores configuration information in a field where the robot operates. The site may include one site, or may include information about a plurality of different sites. The configuration information may include location information of the items within the venue, mobile aisle information, or other relevant information. The initial site information is site information related to the current robot acquired by the robot, for example, the first robot needs to work in the site a, and then the information related to the site a acquired by the first robot from the server before the work is the initial site information.
In an optional embodiment, before step S110, the method further includes:
step S101, determining task information corresponding to the first robot;
step S103, acquiring the initial site information corresponding to the task information from a server according to the task information.
Through the embodiment, each robot can acquire the initial site information corresponding to the current robot from the server.
Here, in step S101, the task information may be determined by setting on the interactive panel of the robot by the worker. In the present embodiment, the task information includes at least target location information, warehouse identification information, and the like. In other embodiments, the task information may also be other information determined in a manner customized by the staff. After acquiring the task information, the processor of the first robot sends the task information to the server through a communication line, wherein the communication line comprises but is not limited to wifi, Bluetooth and laser. In step S103, after receiving the task information data, the server determines, according to the task information data, location information corresponding to the task information from the memory, and sends the location information to the first robot, where the location information is initial location information of the first robot.
The initial path refers to information for guiding the first robot to proceed. In the present embodiment, the initial route is a route calculated by the processor of the first robot from the initial location information after the first robot receives the initial location information. In other embodiments, the initial path is a path determined by the server according to the initial location information, and then the path is sent to the first robot, so that the processor of the first robot controls the first robot to move forward according to the path. The initial path may be a recalculated path or a path obtained from a history record.
In step S130, the site update information is obtained, and the initial path is optimized according to the site update information to obtain an optimized path. The field updating information is shared information of a second robot, wherein the second robot is configured to move according to a corresponding moving path and can acquire current scene information. The field configuration information stored in the server is manually input or information pre-stored in other manners, and in the actual management process, the actual situation in the field may change, for example, an obstacle that has not been appeared before appears on a channel, and this situation may cause the robot to be blocked when moving ahead along the initial path. When such a situation is met, the robot sends the obstacle information to the server, so that the server calculates a new path to instruct the mobile terminal to proceed, which is the aforementioned prior art, and this causes the robot to waste a certain time to wait. In this embodiment, the first robot acquires the field update information in a real-time manner, a periodic acquisition manner, or a passive reception manner during the forward process according to the initial path, and optimizes the initial path according to the field update information to obtain the optimized path.
And the site updating information is also stored in the server. As described above, the server may be a cloud or a local server, or other robots may be used as the server. The servers can be arranged in a centralized manner or in an decentralized manner, and the server can be determined according to actual conditions.
In an optional embodiment, the shared information is uploaded to abnormal information not included in the initial site information of the server through the second robot. Specifically, in one field environment, there are a plurality of running robots, and there may be differences in tasks, travel routes, and the like performed by each robot, so that the situation that each robot may encounter also differs. In the present embodiment, when the second robot encounters abnormality information such as an obstacle, the second robot transmits the abnormality information to the server. In order to avoid uploading unnecessary data information, after the second robot detects the abnormal information, the abnormal information is compared with the acquired initial site information, the abnormal information is determined not to be included in the initial site information, and the abnormal information is controlled to be uploaded to the server to form site updating information. Other running robots can update the latest site information from the server, and further other robots can obtain information of obstacles on a certain coordinate point, and when other robots are controlled to plan a path, the abnormal situation can be taken into consideration to plan in advance, instead of determining the path according to the initial site information or advancing according to the initial path.
In this embodiment, the second robot is configured to move according to a corresponding movement path and can acquire current scene information. For example, when the robot encounters abnormal information in the operation process, the robot uploads the abnormal information to the server to share the information, and all subsequent robots can acquire the abnormal information from the server through the receiver. The abnormal information includes at least one of the following: an obstacle on the movement path; an obstacle present at the target point; the goods in a certain storage position are out of stock; congestion of a certain channel; the electric quantity and the mileage state of the robot change.
Through the embodiment, the robot reports the shared information to the server, and besides directly sending the shared information to the server, the shared information can be directly stored in distributed server nodes on the robot, and then the robot waits for the distributed server nodes to synchronize the information to other distributed server nodes. Therefore, the effect of synchronizing the shared information to other robots is achieved. In the process of the current robot advancing, the initial path of the current robot is optimized by acquiring the field updating information detected and uploaded by other robots, so that the optimized path for avoiding the abnormal information is extracted and calculated, and the running efficiency of the robot can be improved.
In an optional embodiment, the first robot configures a receiver, and the step of acquiring the venue update information is to receive, by the receiver, the venue update information transmitted by the server through broadcasting. The server can broadcast the site updating information to the first robot in the forms of http, WebSocket and the like, and the first robot obtains the site updating information in the communication modes of wifi, Bluetooth, laser and the like.
In step S150, the first robot is controlled to work according to the optimized path.
Specifically, the first robot determines an optimized path according to the acquired site update information. When the robot plans the path autonomously, the planned path is considered again according to the latest information received at present. The robot executes the planned optimal path, meanwhile, the robot continuously synchronizes the latest information in the executing process, and whether the path needs to be optimized and updated is continuously judged according to the current latest information, so that the running route and the executed task of the robot are always optimal.
Through the embodiment, not only is the working efficiency of the first robot improved, but also the problem that in the prior art, each robot and the server are in independent communication, the abnormal situation reported by one robot cannot be shared by other robots, other robots plan a route without knowing the abnormal situation, and then encounter the first robot again, and the repetition causes the efficiency to be lowered is avoided.
Further, in order to reduce data processing pressure caused by the fact that the robot frequently recalculates the path according to different site update information, the method provided by the application further includes, before the step of optimizing the initial path according to the site update information to obtain an optimized path:
step S120, determining that the site update information is associated with the initial path.
The association with the initial path means that the initial path cannot pass through. The abnormal information encountered by the other robots during traveling may not be related to the current initial path of the first robot, that is, the abnormal information encountered by the other robots may not cause the first robot to be unable to travel forward or to complete a task, and at this time, the first robot does not process the field update information when receiving the field update information. And only when the received site updating information is associated with the initial path, optimizing the initial path according to the site updating information to obtain an optimized path. In this embodiment, the place update information is associated with the initial path such that the place update information is located in the initial path information corresponding to the initial path, for example, the initial path information includes at least: position information, commodity information, congestion information, and the like constituting the initial route. Comparing the site updating information with the initial path information corresponding to the initial path, and if the site updating information influences the initial path information, determining that the scene updating information is associated with the initial path.
