Description

Laser point cloud distortion correction method based on synchronous IMU
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of laser navigation, in particular to a laser point cloud distortion correction method based on a synchronous IMU (inertial measurement unit).
Background
The laser navigation is widely applied to industrial AGV trolleys, service robots and household consumption-level robots. The laser navigation has the characteristics of stability, high scanning precision, popularization and the like. The laser radar has the scanning characteristic that the output point cloud is generated by driving components such as a laser, a lens, a ToF chip and the like to rapidly rotate and scan by an internal motor. Due to the limitation of the principles of motor rotation speed, gyro effect and the like, the scanning period of the general laser radar is long, the time of scanning a circle is about 100ms generally, and the scanning period of the high-performance laser radar is about 30 ms. This characteristic can create potential problems for positional stability of the laser navigation. Because the AGV trolley has the requirement of high-speed movement, for example, the running speed of the AGV trolley in an unmanned warehouse can often reach 2 meters per second, the moving amplitude of the AGV in a scanning period reaches 20 centimeters, the high moving amplitude can not be treated as random noise of point cloud, and the AGV trolley can be used after a certain point cloud treatment algorithm. The point cloud distortion of the laser point cloud during the high-speed movement of the AGV and the carriage often results in inaccurate or unstable navigation positioning, so a method is needed for processing.
Some existing laser point cloud distortion correction methods utilize wheel axle encoder data for correction. And resolving the motion path of the AGV according to the wheel shaft encoder data and the trolley model by using a point cloud distortion correction algorithm, so that the motion track of the AGV in a point cloud scanning period is determined and corrected. However this approach requires the use of encoder data. The encoder is generally used as a servo motor component, is expensive, and limits the cost reduction of the laser navigation AGV. In addition, the method must have accurate trolley models conforming to the reality, such as laser installation deflection angles, relative positions of wheels, wheel diameters and the like, and the laser point cloud correction is incorrect due to inaccurate assembly errors in actual production of the parameters. Finally, the numerical value output of the encoder and the output of the laser radar are not synchronous, so that the numerical value of the encoder is possibly earlier or later than the output of the laser radar, the AGV movement track error in the scanning period is caused, and the laser point cloud correction is also incorrect.

Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
The invention provides a laser point cloud distortion correction method based on synchronous IMU (inertial measurement Unit) as shown in figures 1-2.
The method comprises the following steps: and setting the device.
The IMU, the laser radar and the single chip microcomputer are integrated together, so that the central line of the IMU is aligned with the rotation center of the laser radar. IMU and lidar need to have a synchronous output line: the synchronous output line of the IMU should change the level of the output line each time the IMU begins a measurement, the output of the lidar should be rotated to a particular angle in response to the radar: th0 angle changes the output line level. The IMU and the laser radar are simultaneously connected into the single chip microcomputer.
Step two: the singlechip calculates the pose through the IMU and outputs point cloud information fed back to the upper computer by combining with a laser radar synchronization line.
1. Laser radar and IMU synchronization: after the single chip microcomputer detects a synchronous line signal of the laser radar, the current speed change historical data Va calculated through the IMU is temporarily stored as Vc, and the angle historical data Tha is temporarily stored as Thc. Reset current velocity V (including Vx, Vy, xy direction velocity) Vx =0, Vy =0, reset current angle Thn to 0, clear Va, clear Tha.
2. The singlechip continuously reads and temporarily stores the point cloud output of the laser radar:
a) the initial temporary point cloud list Ls is empty.
b) The singlechip is continuously communicated with the laser radar, and every time the current measurement angle th and the distance d returned by the laser radar are measured, the (th, d) is used as a pair of data to be added to a temporary storage point cloud list Ls.
c) Until the laser radar point cloud outputs the measuring distance d0 at the angle of Th0, (Th0, d0) are added to Ls as a pair of data, and Ls, Vc and Thc are output to an upper computer through a network cable as a data packet.
3. The single chip microcomputer continuously calculates speed change data through the IMU.
a) When the single chip microcomputer reads data measured by one IMU, the x-direction acceleration ax, the y-direction acceleration ay and the z-direction angular acceleration ath in the data are analyzed. The time of this data measurement is intv;
b) the current angle Thn = Thn + ath intv, storing Thn in the list Thc;
c) the current x-direction velocity is Vx = Vx + (cos (Thn) ax-sin (Thn) ay) intv;
d) the current y-direction speed is Vy = Vy + (sin (Thn) × + cos (Thn) × ay) × intv;
e) the current velocity V (Vx, Vy) is stored in the list Vc.
Through the steps, the single chip microcomputer synchronizes the speed measurement information given by the IMU and the point cloud data of the laser radar. The data of the IMU is real-time, the data of the laser radar needs to be read indirectly through a network chip, certain delay exists, and the IMU calculation data and the radar data are synchronized through a method for temporarily storing the IMU calculation data.

2. For each point (Th, D) of Ls, a temporary displacement and angle xs =0, ys =0, ths =0 is first initialized, and then a corrected point cloud Ls' is calculated with the following method:

2. Calculating the output point (x ', y ') of the laser radar according to the temporary displacement and the angle, and storing the output point (x ', y ') into the corrected point cloud Ls ':
x’=x*cos(ths)-y*sin(ths)+xs;y’=x*sin(ths)+y*cos(ths)+ys。
3. interpolating Vc to obtain the velocity corresponding to the current point:
1, setting the current point as the ith point, wherein Ls is the total L points, and Vc is the total L2 points;
taking the first point (i/L2) and the next point in Vc, calculating the interpolated speed by the following formula:
Vx’=Vc[floor(i/L*L2)].vx* (i/L*L2-floor(i/L*L2))+ Vc[floor(i/L*L2)+1].vy* (floor(i/L*L2)+1- i/L*L2);
Vy’=Vc[floor(i/L*L2)].vy* (i/L*L2-floor(i/L*L2))+ Vc[floor(i/L*L2)+1].vy* (floor(i/L*L2)+1- i/L*L2)。
where Vc [ i ]. vy represents the vy portion of the ith data in Vc.
4. The temporary displacement and angle are updated.
xs=xs+Vx’;ys=ys+Vy’。
5. And interpolating the Thc to obtain the corresponding angle of the current point, and updating the temporary angle.
1, setting the current point as the ith point, wherein Ls is L points, and Thc is L3 points;
taking the first point (i/L3) and the next point in Vc, calculating the interpolated speed by the following formula:
ths=Thc[floor(i/L*L3)]*(i/L*L2-floor(i/L*L3))+Thc[floor(i/L*L3)+1]*(floor(i/L*L3)+1- i/L*L3)Asdf。
3. and storing the temporary displacement xs, ys into the motion speed Vx, Vy at the end of the previous frame point cloud, and waiting for the next data packet.
