In recent years, the national electric power mechanism greatly promotes the intelligent inspection robot, and the robot assists electric power personnel to complete state monitoring of various instruments and digital reading of a pointer meter. This measure has accelerated the intelligent process of power equipment management and has promoted power institution work efficiency greatly. The main difference between all kinds of electric inspection robots is whether the robots are provided with lifting structures. Large-scale robot with elevation structure (like arm) can send the camera cloud platform to the eminence, often can gather the instrument image in the eminence cubical switchboard with good angle, is favorable to image recognition module to the reading discernment work of gauge. However, the addition of the lifting structure also increases the overall cost of the robot. And robots without lifting structures, although at lower manufacturing costs. However, the switch image at the high position collected by pitching of the pan-tilt camera often has certain distortion, which is not beneficial to the recognition of the meter reading.
At present, most pointer meter identification methods default or require a camera to acquire an image of a switch at a 'front view' angle, and a small inspection machine can only acquire the image at the 'bottom view' angle for a switch at a high place due to the fact that the small inspection machine has no lifting structure. Thus, such methods cannot deal with the problem of distortion of the dial caused by "looking up" the acquired image, and thus cannot accurately read the reading of the pointer.
In addition, current meter identification algorithms typically require a significant amount of dial marking work to be performed prior to use. Firstly, a clear meter picture is required to be collected as a template, the maximum and minimum scale directions and numbers of the dial are marked in the template, and some of the meter pictures even require to mark all scale lines for subsequent comparison of the template. Therefore, the earlier work of the method is more complicated.

Preferably, the predetermined reading range is: the right lower corner of the residual area is taken as the origin, and the diameter isWherein w is the width of the remaining area, h is the height of the remaining area, and K1 is less than K2. More preferably, K1 is 0.95; k2 is 1.05.
FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of the overall process of pointer table identification according to the present invention.
A typical small power inspection robot lacks the structure to lift the camera assembly (typically including the camera and pan-tilt). The pointer meter processing procedure of the electric power inspection robot based on the structure without the lifting camera component is shown in fig. 2. The intelligent monitoring system mainly comprises a holder camera module, an instrument identification module, a meter reading identification module and a data storage module. The flow is as follows in the running process:
(1) The electric power inspection robot without the structure of the lifting camera component passes through the positioning system to come in front of the switch cabinet to be detected, and the cradle head camera module is called to collect images of the switch in the cabinet according to the set identification task.
(2) Registering the acquired image with the template image, and then identifying the state and the position of the acquired switch image by using a pre-trained instrument identification module.
(3) And if the identified switch is a pointer-type meter, calling a meter identification module, taking the meter image as input, interacting with a data storage module, and reading dial information of a pre-configured meter. After the recognition is finished, the result is finally stored in a database.
(4) If the identified switch is not a pointer-like meter, if no special processing is required, the identification result in (2) is directly stored in the database.
FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating the process of pointer table identification according to the present invention.
(1): the first step, an automatic deviation correcting process is executed:
because the small-sized power inspection robot generally has no lifting structure, if the meter to be collected is located at a higher position of the switch cabinet, the cradle head needs to maintain an elevation angle to ensure that the meter is collected. Therefore, the meter image acquired at the moment has certain distortion, and correction is needed to ensure accurate reading. The automatic deviation rectifying method provided by the embodiment of the invention is realized by deducing the homography matrix H AB The gauge is converted from an "elevation" view to a "elevation" view using homography.
Specifically: the step of deducing the homography matrix comprises: first, the gradient of the tabular image is calculated using the Canny edge detection algorithmAnd find the four outer frames of the meter by using Hough transform, thereby determining four vertexes (A 1 ,A 2 ,A 3 ,A 4 ). Subsequently, assuming a front view, gauge left upper corner vertex B 1 =A 1 Further, it was inferred that in the case of "front view", four vertices (B 1 ,B 2 ,B 3 ,B 4 ). Then according to the mapping relation between the four pairs of points, confirming the single mapping matrix H from A to B AB . Finally, coordinate mapping can be carried out on each point of the meter image according to the single mapping matrix, automatic correction is completed, and a meter image P under a 'front view' angle is obtained s
(2): secondly, executing the preprocessing process of the image:
in the image preprocessing, the corrected meter image P is first corrected S Conversion to a grey-scale map P G . Because the background of the gauge is in sharp contrast to the scale of the pointer, the background is typically white and the foreground, such as the pointer, is typically black. The embodiment of the invention can utilize expansion operation and median filtering to erase details such as a pointer, a scale and the like of the foreground from the image to obtain a background map p B . Then take P G -P B The absolute value of the meter is binarized, so that the scale, the pointer and the frame skeleton of the meter are completely extracted, and a skeleton map p is obtained M
(3): third, executing automatic cutting:
at this time, the hough transform is used again to find the corrected meter image P S Is then applied to the skeleton map p M Secondary cutting to cut out the content outside the frame to obtain an image P 'containing only the pointer and the pointer scale' M
(4) Fourth, executing meter pointer identification:
for images P 'containing only pointers and pointer scales' M It can be observed that the area occupied by the pointer is the largest, at P' M The location area for determining the pointer can be found by searching the maximum connection quantity within the range of (1). Performing straight line fitting on the pixel coordinates where the pointer is located to finally obtainTo the straight line l where the pointer is located.
(5) Fifth step, executing meter scale value identification:
here, the binarized image P 'can be scanned by a window scanning method using a scanning window W' M The remaining area after the pointer area is removed (pixel value is 0 or 255), scanning of a predetermined step size (for example, 10 pixels) is performed, and the pixel value distribution of each scanned area is calculated. When the pixel point with the pixel value of 255 in the window exceeds a certain threshold value, the scanning area is added to the candidate area set C of the scale value all
Subsequently, embodiments of the present invention pair candidate set C by the following rule all Screening is performed. Namely: the scale candidate should be within a predetermined reading range of the index mark, such as in image P' M The lower right corner is the origin and the diameter isWherein w, h is the width and height of the remaining regions. Finally, candidate set C is excluded from this range by a non-maximum suppression algorithm (NMS) all To obtain a set C of scale values in the dial num . For example, FIG. 4 is a schematic representation of the read range of the present invention. The circular area between the circular arc 31 and the circular arc 32 is the preset reading range. Wherein the diameter of the arc 31 is +.>The diameter of the circular arc 32 is
(6) Sixth, dial arc fitting is performed:
taking C num The central point coordinates of each window can be fitted with the circular arc of the dial. The intersection point of l and arc is obtained, and the reading of the meter can be finally determined according to the position of the intersection point. At this time, only the maximum scale value, the minimum scale value and the number of scale values of the meter are recorded in advance, and the intersection point can be usedThe location at which it is located determines the gauge reading.
Therefore, the embodiment of the invention provides a method for automatically identifying the pointer meter reading by a small robot with a structure without a lifting camera component. Even if the camera collects the meter image at a certain elevation angle, the method can realize automatic correction of the dial according to the extracted meter frame shape, thereby ensuring the accuracy of meter identification. Compared with the prior art, the embodiment of the invention has the advantages that the manual marking quantity is small, and only the maximum and minimum scale values of the meter and the number of the scale values of the meter are required to be recorded.
