s21, image preprocessing: removing soil pixels in the image based on a green plant detection algorithm, removing noise influence through a median filtering algorithm to keep the edge of the green plant, and finally converting the image into a binary system. In this step, since the detected object is a plant, it is necessary to first remove the soil pixels of the non-detection target by a green plant detection algorithm, where the detection formula of the green plant is:
I＝2×G-R-B
in the formula, I represents a processed green plant image, R represents a red pixel in an RGB image, G represents a green pixel in the RGB image, and B represents a blue pixel in the RGB image.
And S22, removing the small objects in the preprocessed image based on the connected component area value. In this step, since small objects such as grass seedlings and fallen leaves do not affect the growth of crops, it is necessary to remove them to reduce the processing load of the control module.
S23, extracting a plurality of green plant areas through a threshold segmentation algorithm, and attaching labels to the areas; extracting the area S, the perimeter P, the minimum external moment length L and the minimum external moment width W of the leaves of the green plant region by using a neighborhood tracking algorithm;
and S24, normalizing the parameters S, P, L, W obtained in the step S23 and the parameters S, p, l and w in the pre-stored weed feature database according to a unified standard, then calculating the similarity between each green plant area and the pre-stored weed feature data based on the following formula, and identifying the green plant area with the similarity larger than a threshold value as the weed. The similarity calculation method in this step may be
In the formula, DiIndicates the similarity, omega, of the ith green plant area to the weed characteristics1-ω4The weight is represented by a weight that is,
normalized data representing the area, circumference, minimum circumscribed moment length, and minimum circumscribed moment width of the leaf of each green plant region, respectively,
and respectively representing the normalized data of the area, the circumference, the minimum external moment length and the minimum external moment width of the blade in the pre-stored weed characteristic data, wherein the pre-stored weed characteristic data can be obtained by pre-establishing a training model. Based on the steps, the weed identification method provided by the invention considers the similarity degree of the crop plants and the weeds in the aspects of the area, the circumference, the minimum external moment length and the minimum external moment width of the blades, and obviously improves the identification accuracy of the weeds.
S3, the control module 4 stores the number of the identified weeds and the position information read from the RFID reader in a correlation mode;
s4, driving the robot to a subsequent target point and executing the steps S2-S3 until the robot drives to the end point of the preset inspection track;
and S5, the control module 4 carries out statistical analysis on the stored weed quantity and the corresponding position information to generate an inspection report, and the inspection report is locally stored and sent to the handheld remote controller 8 through the communication module.
It should be noted that, based on the foregoing polling process of this embodiment, the aerial robot can automatically execute the polling task according to the set track in the farmland, quickly recognize the current agricultural condition through the visual recognition algorithm, and can generate the corresponding polling report based on the real-time agricultural condition, and the user can check the polling report in time at the handheld remote controller 8, so as to determine whether to execute the operation tasks such as picking and spraying, thereby greatly improving the efficiency of agricultural production.
