For example, the NFC module may be implemented based on Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology, infrared data association (IrDA) technology, Ultra Wideband (UWB) technology, Bluetooth (BT) technology, and other technologies. When the electronic device 100 is implemented as a controller of a mobile robot, the communication device 110 is mainly responsible for data interaction between the mobile robot and the control system, such as receiving a scheduling instruction of the control system, and feeding back status information of the mobile robot to the control system.

A path planning method 200 according to an embodiment of the invention is described below with reference to fig. 2. The path method 200 may be used for a mobile robot, or for a control system for a mobile robot.
As shown in fig. 2, the path planning method 200 may include the following steps:
in step S210, the current pose and the target pose of the mobile robot are acquired;
in step S220, a plurality of point layers are obtained according to the current pose and the target pose, each point layer including a plurality of candidate intermediate points;
in step S230, curve fitting is performed on the candidate intermediate points in each two adjacent point layers, and the cost of at least part of the curve segments obtained by fitting is determined, where each curve segment is used to connect the two adjacent point layers;
in step S240, a target curve segment is selected between every two adjacent point layers according to the cost of the curve segment, and a target path from the current pose to the target pose is obtained.
The path planning method 200 of the embodiment of the invention is used for path planning for a mobile robot, and the mobile robot can be applied to the fields of manufacturing, warehousing and distribution, logistics transportation and the like, and can be specifically realized as a mobile robot adopting a non-predetermined path guiding mode. Past mobile robots have typically been re-planned based on purely controlled PID or based on bezier curves. The pure control PID refers to that after the mobile robot part enters the bottom of the tray, feedback control is carried out by taking the central line of the chassis as a target. The scheme does not consider the distance between the mobile robot and the barrier, has the risk of collision, is only suitable for the situation that the current pose is very close to the target pose, cannot process the complex environment, and has low robustness. The re-planning based on the Bezier curve refers to planning a new end path by performing two-point fitting with the Bezier curve according to the current pose and the motion state of the trolley and combining the target state. The problem of the scheme is that obstacle information is not considered, path parameters obtained by fitting two points are too few, and the form is too simple, so that the problem of a scene needing obstacle avoidance is difficult to solve; for the condition that the pose change of the end point is large, the success rate of the method is low. In contrast, the path planning method 200 according to the embodiment of the present invention samples a plurality of point layers between the current pose and the target pose, fits curve segments between each adjacent point layer, and splices the target path according to the plurality of curve segments, so that the path has a richer form and more inflection points, and the success rate and robustness are significantly improved compared with the single-segment path planning.
The controller-based path planning can realize the real-time path planning in the running process of the mobile robot. The path planning method 200 of the embodiment of the present invention may be re-planning initiated in real time during the operation of the mobile robot, so as to implement relative navigation of the mobile robot. When the target pose or the surrounding environment of the mobile robot changes in the operation process, the path planning method 200 of the embodiment of the invention can be adopted to re-plan the path in real time according to the changed target pose and the surrounding environment, and dynamically adjust the motion track of the mobile robot to complete the final task. For example, when the mobile robot receives a new target pose sent by the control system, or when the original path of the mobile robot is invalid, the path planning method 200 of the present application may be triggered to plan a new target route in real time. Among them, the reasons for the path failure may include that the mobile robot collides, or the mobile robot detects an obstacle, etc.
After the path planning is triggered, step S210 is executed to obtain a current pose and a target pose of the mobile robot, where the current pose includes a current position and a current pose, and the target pose includes a target position and a target pose.
Illustratively, the target pose may be issued by the control system to the mobile robot. In particular, the control system may issue a task message to the mobile robot, for example, the task may be to inform the mobile robot to transport an item to be transported from a starting location to an end location. In some examples, when the mobile robot is at a start position of a task, a pose of an end position of the task may be taken as a target pose of the path plan. When the mobile robot is not at the starting position of the task, the pose of the starting position of the task can be used as a target pose, so that the mobile robot runs from the current position to the starting position of the task to acquire the article to be transported.
The current pose can be acquired by the mobile robot in real time. For example, different types of mobile robots may acquire the current pose in different ways, e.g., based on laser scanning, inertial navigation, image recognition, etc. Determining the current pose based on the laser module means that a laser reflection plate is installed at a predetermined position around a traveling area of the mobile robot, and the laser module of the mobile robot emits a laser beam through a laser scanner while collecting the laser beam reflected by the reflection plate, thereby determining the current pose thereof. The current pose is determined based on the inertial measurement unit, namely a gyroscope is arranged on the mobile robot, a positioning block is arranged on the ground of a driving area, and the mobile robot determines the current pose through comprehensive calculation of a gyroscope deviation signal and a traveling distance encoder and comparison and correction of ground positioning block signals. The image identification-based determination of the current pose means that the mobile robot acquires image information of the surrounding environment of the running path in real time by using a camera and compares the image information with information in an established image library of the surrounding environment of the running path to determine the current pose. The mobile robot can also adopt an image recognition method based on the two-dimension code, namely, a camera is used for scanning the ground two-dimension code, and the current pose is determined by a code scanning positioning technology. In this embodiment, various feasible manners may also be adopted to determine the current pose, and the specific manner of determining the current pose is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
After the current pose and the target pose of the mobile robot are obtained, step S220 is executed to obtain a plurality of point layers according to the current pose and the target pose, where each point layer includes a plurality of candidate intermediate points.
Illustratively, sampling may be performed between the current pose and the target pose to obtain a plurality of point layers arranged at intervals. The sampling can be performed in the direction of the connection line from the current position to the target position to obtain a plurality of point layers arranged at intervals, and the length direction of the point layers can be perpendicular to the direction of the connection line between the current position and the target point. Each point layer is an area expected to be passed by the mobile robot, and is a set of a plurality of candidate intermediate points, and the candidate intermediate points in the same point layer are uniformly distributed in a continuous space. In other words, each point layer represents an area through which the mobile robot is expected to pass, and each alternative intermediate point on each point layer represents a location in the area. Alternatively, the dot layer may be elongated rectangular regions arranged at intervals in the direction of the center line, and of course, the dot layer may have other shapes, such as an oval shape. Illustratively, the shape and size of the different dot layers may be the same, or the shape and size of the different dot layers may be different.
The point layers are arranged in order from far to near according to the distance from the target position, namely each point layer is provided with a uniquely determined front-driving point layer and a rear-driving point layer, the occupied spaces of different point layers are not intersected, and the mobile robot needs to pass through each point layer in sequence.
The number of point layers depends, for example, on the number of intermediate points to be passed through, or on the distance between the current position and the target position. The farther the distance is, the larger the number of dot layers, and the closer the distance is, the smaller the number of dot layers. Similarly, the spacing between adjacent layers of dots may also depend on the distance between the current location and the target location, e.g., the farther the distance, the larger the spacing, and the closer the distance, the smaller the spacing.
In step S230, curve fitting is performed on the candidate intermediate points in each two adjacent point layers, and the cost of at least part of the curve segments obtained by fitting is determined, wherein each curve segment is used for connecting the two adjacent point layers.
As described above, in the sampling region between the current position and the target position, the point layers are arranged in the order from far to near from the target position, and the finally determined target path needs to follow the spatial arrangement relationship of the point layers, that is, sequentially passes through one alternative intermediate point in each point layer, cannot jump over a certain point layer, and cannot disturb the order of passing through the point layers, so that an intermediate point fitting curve segment needs to be selected from between adjacent point layers.
For example, if k point layers are sampled between the current position and the target position, curve fitting is performed on candidate intermediate points in the first point layer and the second point layer to obtain a plurality of curve segments between the first point layer and the second point layer; and performing curve fitting on the alternative intermediate points in the second point layer and the third point layer to obtain a plurality of curve segments between the second point layer and the third point layer, and so on until a plurality of curve segments are obtained by fitting between every two adjacent point layers in the k point layers. As only one alternative intermediate point in each point layer can be finally selected to serve as the target intermediate point on the target path, the alternative intermediate points in the same point layer are not fitted with each other.
Further, fitting the curve segment requires circularly traversing all the candidate intermediate points in two adjacent point layers, and respectively taking each candidate intermediate point in the previous point layer and each candidate intermediate point in the next point layer as the head-end point fitting curve segment. That is to say, between every two adjacent point layers, the candidate intermediate points in the previous point layer and the candidate intermediate points in the next point layer are paired in a one-to-one combination manner, any two candidate intermediate points are taken as head and end points to fit a curve segment, any one candidate intermediate point in the previous point layer and each candidate intermediate point in the next point layer are fitted to obtain a curve segment, and similarly, any one candidate intermediate point in the next point layer and each candidate intermediate point in the previous point layer are also fitted to obtain a curve segment. For example, if the number of candidate intermediate points in the first point layer is m and the number of candidate intermediate points in the second point layer is n, m × n curve segments are obtained by fitting between the first point layer and the second point layer.
The information of each candidate intermediate point at least comprises the position and the direction of the candidate intermediate point, and a curve between the two points can be obtained through fitting according to the position and the direction. Further, the information of each alternative intermediate point may also include curvature to further enrich the parameters of the curve fit. And solving curve parameters by using the information of the alternative intermediate points as boundary conditions of curve fitting, namely obtaining a curve segment with the alternative intermediate points as head and tail end points. Illustratively, the curve forms that may be taken include, but are not limited to, spline curves, polynomial curves, bezier curves, and the like.
In one embodiment, after the curve segments are obtained through fitting, the curve segments colliding with the obstacles can be eliminated, so that the safety of the mobile robot running along the target path can be guaranteed to the maximum extent.
For example, whether the curve segment collides with the obstacle may be determined as follows: and judging whether each point on the contour of the mobile robot appears in the obstacle when the mobile robot runs according to the curve segment. And if any point on the outline of the mobile robot appears in the obstacle, determining that the curve segment collides with the obstacle, and rejecting the curve segment to ensure the operation safety of the mobile robot.
For example, whether each point on the mobile robot contour exists inside the obstacle can be judged through the vector product direction, specifically, a convex polygon surrounding the obstacle is determined, and for the P on the mobile robot contour, a vector between the P and each vertex of the convex polygon is obtained; and taking adjacent vectors in the anticlockwise direction or the clockwise direction for cross multiplication, and if the included angle between any two vectors is more than 180 degrees, indicating that the point P exists in the polygon. Based on the detection result, whether the pose of each discrete mobile robot on the curve segment collides with the obstacle or not can be detected, and the curve segment colliding with the obstacle is removed.
As another example, the culled curve segment may be a curve segment that exceeds a preset curvature. The curve segment exceeding the preset curvature may be a curve segment whose maximum curvature exceeds the preset curvature, or may be a curve segment whose average curvature exceeds the preset curvature. And the elimination of curve segments with curvature exceeding the standard can ensure the running stability of the mobile robot.
Illustratively, for some or all curve segments fitted between each two adjacent point layers, the cost of each curve segment is calculated. Wherein the partial curve segment may be a curve segment remaining after excluding a collision with an obstacle and/or a curve segment exceeding a preset curvature as described above. And the cost of the curve segment is used for measuring the quality of the curve segment, and finally the curve segment is selected according to the cost to be spliced, so that the optimal target path with the lowest total cost is obtained.
Considering the operation condition of the mobile robot, the advantages and disadvantages of the curve segment are represented in the aspects of avoiding obstacles, smoothing degree of the curve, distance deviating from the shortest path and the like, so in one embodiment, the calculation of the cost comprises three items: the average curvature, the average deviation from a center line and the average distance from an obstacle, wherein the center line is a connecting line between the current position and the target position.
In one embodiment, for each curve segment, the cost is calculated by: selecting a plurality of discrete points in the curve segment; respectively calculating the cost of each discrete point; and obtaining the cost of the curve segment according to the cost of a plurality of discrete points on the same curve segment.
Wherein calculating the cost for each discrete point comprises: the cost of each discrete point is calculated from its curvature, its distance from the centerline, and its distance from the obstacle. Specifically, for each discrete point, the curvature of the discrete point, the distance between the discrete point and the center line, and the distance between the discrete point and the obstacle may be weighted and summed to obtain the cost of the discrete point. Finally, the average cost of all discrete points on each curve segment can be taken as the overall cost of the curve segment.
In one embodiment, the cost of the curve segment may be stored in a node chain table manner, so as to facilitate subsequent dynamic planning.
The cost of at least part of the curve segment can be obtained by performing step S230. Then, in step S240, a target curve segment is selected between every two adjacent point layers according to the cost of the curve segment, and a target path from the current pose to the target pose is obtained. The target curve segments can be spliced to obtain the target path. Because the total cost of the target path is equal to the sum of the costs of the curve segments, the target path with the lowest total cost can be found according to the costs of the curve segments. Because the splicing process is a Ma's process without aftereffect, namely the splicing process is irrelevant to the previous state of the mobile robot, dynamic programming can be adopted for solving, and programming is carried out according to the Bellman optimality principle, so that the calculated amount is reduced.
Specifically, dynamic programming is a multi-stage decision-making optimal solution model, which adopts a bottom-up recursion mode to obtain an optimal solution of each subproblem, and further obtains an optimal solution of the original problem depending on the subproblems. That is, the original problem can be split into multiple sub-problems to solve the optimal solution, and in the process of recursion from bottom to top, each sub-problem obtained is the global optimal solution, so the original problem depending on the sub-problems is also the global optimal solution.
In the embodiment of the invention, the original problem is to obtain the target path, and the sub-problem is to obtain the optimal curve segment in the adjacent point layer. Because a certain relation exists between the sub-problems, namely the optimal curve segment between the current point layer and the next point layer depends on the curve segment between the current point layer and the previous point layer, an iterative recurrence formula, namely a state transition equation, needs to be established between the curve segments, and the solution is performed from bottom to top according to the state transition equation, so that the repeated calculation caused by the overlapping of the sub-problems is avoided, the overlapped sub-problems can be eliminated by adopting the bottom-to-top solution mode, and the calculation amount is reduced.
And the solution from bottom to top is that the problem on the upper layer and the problem on the upper layer are gradually solved according to the state equation from the subproblem which can not be continuously decomposed on the bottommost layer, and finally the optimal solution of the original problem is solved. In the embodiment of the invention, target curve segments are sequentially selected between every two adjacent point layers according to the sequence from the current pose to the target pose or the sequence from the target pose to the current pose. Wherein, after a previous target curve segment is determined, a subsequent target curve segment is selected among the plurality of curve segments connected to the previous target curve segment.
For example, in order to select an optimal subsequent target curve segment from the plurality of curve segments connected to the previous target curve segment, a target intermediate point with the smallest cost may be selected from at least some of the candidate intermediate points in the subsequent point layer of the previous target curve segment according to the state transition equation to obtain a subsequent target curve segment connecting the previous target curve segment and the target intermediate point. As described above, the state of each sub-problem can be solved according to the state transition equation, that is, the state of each sub-problem is the result of the previous stage state and the previous stage decision, so that the final result, that is, the target path with the lowest total cost, can be obtained by continuously looping iteration from bottom to top as long as three variables are defined.
In one embodiment of the invention, the state transition equations are constructed based on the cost of the curve segments. Specifically, a state transition equation may be established according to the sequence of the point layers, the candidate intermediate point with the lowest cost in each point layer is sequentially solved according to the cost of the curve segment to serve as the target intermediate point, the target curve segment is obtained according to the target intermediate point, and the target path is a path formed by connecting all the target curve segments. The state transition equation can be modeled as: r (P) ═ min { R (P ') + R (P, P ') }, where P is the current point (i.e., the current candidate intermediate point), P ' is the set of all the successors (i.e., the successor candidate intermediate points) to P, and R (P), R (P '), R (P, P ') represent the cost of P, the cost of P ' and the cost of the curve segment fitted by P and P ', respectively. The cost from the current P point to the succeeding P 'point is called the single step cost, and the cost of the P' point itself is called the succeeding cost. The physical meaning of the state transition equation is: the cost of the current point is equal to the minimum of the sum of all its successor point costs and the costs of the curve segments between the current point and the successor point.
The alternative intermediate point with the minimum cost in each point layer can be solved by recursion of the state transition equation according to the sequence of the point layers, the alternative intermediate point is used as a target intermediate point, a connecting line between the target intermediate point and the tail end of the last target curve segment is a target curve segment connecting the current point layer and the last point layer, and the target path is a path formed by connecting all the target curve segments, namely a path obtained by connecting all the target intermediate points. In the solving process, the solution may be recurred in the direction from the target position to the current position, or may be recurred in the direction from the current position to the target position, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.
Based on the above description, the final target path can be planned. In the operation speed, due to the adoption of dynamic programming, large-area repeated redundant calculation is avoided, and the optimal path programming result can be output in a short time.
According to the embodiment of the invention, multi-point layer sampling is carried out between the current pose and the target pose, curve segments are obtained by fitting between the point layers, and the final target path is obtained according to the multiple curve segments, so that the path form is richer, the inflection points are more, and the success rate and the robustness are greatly improved compared with a single-segment path planning form of a Bezier curve.
