Description

Robot mapping algorithm precision simulation evaluation method
Technical Field
The invention relates to a testing technology, in particular to a robot mapping algorithm precision simulation evaluation method.
Background
With the rapid development of the robot industry, robot algorithms are also rapidly developed, robot algorithms of the same type are different, and performances of the robot algorithms may be different in a natural way, for example, a sweeping robot experiences iteration from random movement to ESLAM, and then to different algorithms and technologies such as laser SLAM and VSLAM. The progress and optimization of the algorithm have higher and higher occupation ratio on the improvement of the performance of the robot, and the evaluation work of the algorithm is more and more important.
However, the evaluation means of the algorithm is always lagged compared with the rapid development of the algorithm. Many robotic products perform acceptably in laboratories and factories, but once a real user working environment is reached, various errors occur. On one hand, the evaluation means is backward and incomplete, and on the other hand, enterprises cannot cover complicated and diversified user actual working environments during the test.
In the robot SLAM algorithm, the mapping algorithm is the basis of other algorithms such as navigation, positioning and the like, and is particularly important. For example, a household sweeper only needs to work in a small-area environment in a home, and even if the accuracy of the mapping algorithm is not high, no bad result can be caused, while an industrial robot, such as an industrial AGV, needs to work in a large-area environment such as a factory building and the like, and because the equipment is heavy, the value is high, if the mapping accuracy is low, serious results such as personal safety or property loss can be caused. The method for evaluating the accuracy of the mapping algorithm is a simple, universal and efficient evaluation method, and is a problem which needs to be solved urgently.

Detailed Description
The invention is described in detail below with reference to the figures and specific embodiments. The present embodiment is implemented on the premise of the technical solution of the present invention, and a detailed implementation manner and a specific operation process are given, but the scope of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.
The robot simulation refers to the simulation of the body, the sensor and the physical environment of the robot, the simulation environment is connected with the real algorithm of the robot in a butt joint mode, and the algorithm is used for controlling the simulation robot to move in the simulation environment. Since the robot simulation technique is not the focus of the present invention, it will be briefly described only when referring to the present invention.
The method comprises the steps of setting up a robot simulation environment, wherein the robot simulation environment comprises a simulation robot, a simulation sensor and a simulation scene, connecting a robot mapping algorithm with a simulation system, enabling the robot in the simulation system to move according to output information of the mapping algorithm, providing information of various sensors for the mapping algorithm by the simulation system, and enabling the mapping algorithm to move to map according to received sensor information and an algorithm.
Randomly selecting a plurality of key points in a simulation scene as comparison points, extracting the coordinates of the corresponding key points in the algorithm after the graph building of the graph building algorithm, feeding the coordinates back to the simulation system, carrying out precision comparison on the received coordinate values of each key point in the graph building algorithm and the real values by the simulation system, and taking the average value as the precision value of the graph building algorithm. It can be seen that the more key points are selected, the closer the precision value is to the overall precision value.
Aiming at robots with different working environments and purposes, the mapping algorithm can be used for precision evaluation according to the method as long as a proper simulation scene and a proper key point number are selected. The mapping algorithm of the same type of robot, such as a sweeping robot, is evaluated by using the same simulation scene and the same number of key points at the same position, and the result can be used for comparing the advantages and disadvantages of different mapping algorithms of the same type of robot.
The technical scheme of selecting key points in a simulation scene, calculating the coordinates of the key points by an algorithm and comparing the coordinates with real coordinates in a simulation environment is as follows:
in a simulation scene, as shown in the schematic diagram of the simulation scene in the embodiment of fig. 1, a certain number of key points are determined according to the space of the simulation scene and the positions of obstacles. All key points are selected only among the following three types, as shown in fig. 2:
1. the intersection points or points on the intersection lines of the two wall bodies;
2. the intersection point or the point on the intersection line of the two right-angle outer planes of the rectangular furniture or the object;
3. the center or point on the circumference of a circular piece of furniture or object.
Keypoints are marked in the scene. The labeling method is as follows: for example, key points located on the intersecting lines of two walls, the walls within a certain range (for example, within 10 cm) near the intersection point are marked, as shown in fig. 2 by the area formed by the two intersecting lines of the point 1 and the thick line of the corner. When the sensor of the robot scans the wall with the mark near the key point, the sensor sends the mark information to the algorithm together with normal data in a JSON format.
Taking a 2D laser radar as an example, the scanning data of the sensor with the mark is:
{ "Angle": -1.570796, "distance": 0, "information": 1, "angle": -1.562070, "distance": 0.665, "information": 0, … … }
The angle value in the JSON format data is the scanning angle of the current laser point, the distance value is the barrier distance value fed back by the laser point, and the information value is the information of the key point. If the scanned area is a non-key point mark area, the information value is 0, otherwise, the information value is the number of the key point. For example, 1 in the data, indicates that the current scanning point is near key point number 1.
After the robot finishes moving in the simulation scene and completes the mapping, the algorithm can take the information values (distance and angle) of all key point positions, calculate the coordinates of the key points based on the information values, then feed the calculated coordinates of the key points back to the simulation system, the simulation system obtains the distance difference between the calculated coordinates and the real coordinates of the key points in the scene, and then calculates the average value, namely the precision of the mapping algorithm.
In the process, because the scene and the key point position are randomly selected in the simulation scene by the simulation system, when the method is used for comparing different algorithms, the algorithm cannot acquire the accurate coordinates of the key point in advance, and cheating cannot be performed.
According to the invention, a family simulation scene is built in a robot simulation system, and 12 key points are set in the simulation scene, as shown in figure 1. Marking 12 key points and a wall or a facade in an area which is not more than 10cm nearby, and butting the robot mapping algorithm with the simulation system through a network interface to realize data intercommunication.
And installing a laser sensor for the robot, controlling the robot to move along the wall in the simulation scene, moving and simultaneously acquiring the data of the laser sensor, and synchronously transmitting the data to a mapping algorithm. The robot moves for two circles in the scene, and the robot stops moving after the laser scans all walls and objects.
The mapping algorithm completes mapping according to the received laser data, and sends the coordinate values of 12 key points to the simulation system, the simulation system calculates the distance difference between the 12 coordinate values fed back by the algorithm and the real coordinate values in the scene, and then the averaging step is as follows:
calculating the distance difference between the algorithm coordinate and the actual coordinate of each key point according to the following formula (1):
Figure BDA0003148122510000051
the final mapping accuracy result is calculated according to the following formula (2):
Figure BDA0003148122510000052
in the formula: the Xi point is the real coordinate value of the X axis of the point i; the Yi point is a Y-axis real coordinate value of the point i; the Xi' point is the coordinate value of the X-axis map of the point i; yi is a Y-axis map coordinate value of the point i; and E is the drawing establishing precision.
The above-mentioned embodiments only express several embodiments of the present invention, and the description thereof is more specific and detailed, but not construed as limiting the scope of the invention. It should be noted that, for a person skilled in the art, several variations and modifications can be made without departing from the inventive concept, which falls within the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present patent shall be subject to the appended claims.
