The pre-stored device information in the sensor device library may be device information pre-stored in a sensor device library in the unmanned robot, the control terminal, or the server.
In one embodiment, if it is determined that the unmanned robot successfully recognizes the external sensor, step S404 is executed, otherwise, when the unmanned robot fails to recognize the external sensor, indication information of the recognition failure is output, where the indication information is output to a user interface of a control terminal connected to the unmanned robot, and the indication information may be, for example, when the user interface outputs device information of the external sensor, identification information of an unknown device is output in the device information of the external sensor, so as to notify a user that the unmanned robot fails to recognize the external sensor. In addition, the indication information may also be prompt box information, that is, when the unmanned robot fails to recognize the external sensor, a prompt box is output to inform a user that the unmanned robot fails to recognize the external sensor.

And if the unmanned robot successfully identifies the external RTK equipment, the unmanned robot needs to further determine whether starting conditions for starting the position information acquired by the RTK equipment are met, in the specific implementation, because the precision of the position information acquired by the RTK equipment is higher than that of the position information acquired by the built-in GPS, the unmanned robot determines the success of the external RTK equipment and meets the starting conditions for the position information acquired by the RTK equipment, and the unmanned robot can be controlled to execute a work task based on the position information acquired by the external RTK equipment.

In addition, the unmanned robot can also acquire sensing data acquisition frequency indication information sent by the control terminal, wherein the sensing data acquisition frequency indication information is determined by the control terminal through sensing data acquisition frequency selection operation of a user; so that the unmanned robot can determine target acquisition frequency according to the sensing data acquisition frequency indication information; furthermore, when the unmanned robot is controlled to execute a work task according to the sensing data acquired by the external sensor, the sensing data acquired by the external sensor can be received through the universal interface according to the target acquisition frequency, so that the unmanned robot can be controlled to execute the work task according to the acquired sensing data. When the unmanned robot controls the operation of the unmanned robot according to the sensing data acquired by the external sensor, the sensing data acquired by the built-in sensor of the unmanned robot may be referred to, or the unmanned robot may be controlled only based on the sensing data acquired by the external sensor, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.
