And performing image recognition based on the obtained ideal binary image to obtain the accurate position of the target on the platform, and controlling the XY-axis servo motor module 10 to move the wireless charging plate to the lower part of the unmanned aerial vehicle to realize automatic charging.

The display module can also adjust the position of the camera.
According to the register setting of the camera module, the image input to the FPGA development board by the camera module is a 16-bit serial signal with the format of RGB565, and finally the image needs to be converted into the format of YUV 888. The following steps are required.
S1, splitting an RGB565 signal into three parts, namely RED-5, GREEN-6 and BLUE-5; according to the format, the 16-bit image signal has blue color signals from 0 th bit to 4 th bit, green color signal lines from 5 th bit to 10 th bit, and red color signal lines from 11 th bit to 15 th bit.
S2, respectively expanding the split red, green and blue signals into 8 bits;
According to the definition of RGB565 to RGB888, only 3 bits and 0 need to be added after the red 5-bit signal, and similarly, 2 and 30 need to be added after the green 6-bit signal and the blue 5-bit signal, respectively. The value range of the 8-bit binary signal is 0-255, and the value range of the last 3-bit signal is 0-7, so that the expansion into 8 bits has little influence on the image color.

An image edge refers to the collection of pixels around an image where the gray level of the pixels changes sharply, which is the most fundamental feature of the image. The Sobel operator uses a first order differential operator to detect the edge of the image, and the first order differential edge operator (gradient edge operator) uses the step property of the image at the edge to detect the edge. In the actual algorithm implementation process, a 3 x 3 template is used as a core to perform convolution calculation with each pixel point of a selected area with the same size in an image, gradient values of the selected image in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction are calculated, and the horizontal gray value and the longitudinal gray value of each pixel point of the image are combined through a corresponding formula to obtain the gradient value of the point in one direction. Since the classical Sobel algorithm is sensitive to noise, the threshold needs to be determined, and misjudgment of the edge point is often caused. To solve this problem, there are many adaptive threshold selection methods, such as histogram method. However, the histogram method requires that the gray histogram of the image after the edge detection by the Sobel algorithm presents obvious double peaks, and the binarization is realized by selecting the gray level corresponding to the valley bottom between the two peaks as the threshold value, so that the selection of the adaptive threshold value by the histogram method is greatly limited. Based on the method, after the image is subjected to convolution gradient value calculation, the median filtering and weighted average method is adopted to realize the calculation of the self-adaptive threshold value so as to realize the binarization of the image.
Because the weighted gray level of the central pixel corresponds to the gray level of the weighted central pixel after the Sobel operator is subjected to gradient transformation, the gray levels of the pixel points at the edge and the pixel points at the non-edge have larger difference, the traditional method is to try to set a fixed threshold value to realize binarization, so the processing is simple but seriously influenced by external factors, in order to realize threshold value self-adaptive adjustment, a 5 x 5 region is selected from an image after convolution operation, and the median value, the secondary minimum value and the minimum value of the region are calculated by using median filtering. And carrying out weighted average on the 3 values, taking the result as a threshold value, and reducing the selection of the weight value along with the increase of the distance from the central pixel point.
And carrying out binarization processing on the image according to the gray level of the image and the data obtained by the edge detection processing.
Firstly, according to the characteristics of the red LED small lamp which needs to be identified, the obtained target is much brighter than the background of the view field, and the color is red and is more remarkable. Therefore, a predetermined threshold value is set for the brightness, the chromaticity, and the density, which are three parameters Y, U, V, respectively, based on the obtained image YUV data. And when the values of the three parameters in one pixel block are greater than the set threshold value, the pixel block is determined as a target pixel block, and if one of the three parameters does not meet the requirement, the pixel block is determined not to meet the requirement and is not the target pixel block. According to the actual image and the matlab simulation result, when the brightness is greater than 250, the concentration is greater than 210 and the chroma is greater than 200, more than 98% of interference noise can be removed on the premise of extracting the target image.
Then, the result obtained by the self-adaptive threshold edge detection is utilized to process the image,
And performing cross comparison on the results of the two image processing, determining that the results are correct judgment when the results of the two image processing are consistent, and determining that the results obtained by default image gray scale processing are correct judgment when the results of the two image processing are inconsistent.
And the image is stored by writing an FIFO program by using the FPGA. Because the image data volume is large, the storage of one frame of image data cannot be completed inside the FPGA, and therefore the dual-port RAM is generated for caching by using the inherent IP core on the FPGA. In order to solve the problem of image smear, a ping-pong structure is adopted to read and write image data. The SDRAM on the development board is divided into two areas, namely a Bank0 area and a Bank1 area, and when data collected by the camera is written into a Bank0 area of the SDRAM, the image processing module reads the data from the Bank1 area of the SDRAM to process the data. When one-frame image writing of the camera is completed, Bank exchange of SDRAM reading and writing is performed.
In order to extract the target coordinates, the features of the target need to be analyzed. In the picture where binarization has been completed, most of the background, i.e. white, is targeted to a black solid circle, meaning that there will be blocks of pixels of consecutive rows and columns appearing black, and the following algorithm is designed.
And establishing a rectangular coordinate system by taking the upper left corner of the LCD screen as an original point, and traversing one frame of image by one pixel point. Two signals are defined, a row-sequential signal and a column-sequential signal, respectively, for indicating whether or not to traverse to consecutive black pixel blocks.
