Detailed Description
The following description of the embodiments of the present invention will be made clearly and completely with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which it is apparent that the embodiments described are only some embodiments of the present invention, but not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
The flow diagrams depicted in the figures are exemplary only, and do not necessarily include all of the elements and operations/steps, nor must they be performed in the order described. For example, some operations/steps may be decomposed, and some operations/steps may be combined or partially combined, so that the order of actual execution may be changed according to actual situations.
Referring to fig. 1, a flowchart of a method for processing a robot offline according to an embodiment of the present invention may include the following steps:
s11: and acquiring the network breaking information of the first robot.
The "first" and "second" of the "first robot" and the "second robot" are used only to distinguish different objects, and do not refer to a robot of a certain model or structure. In the embodiment of the invention, after any robot breaks the network, the any robot is a first robot, and the robot for rescuing the first robot from breaking the network is a second robot.
After any robot breaks the network, the broken network information of the robot can be obtained, so that the condition that the robot breaks the network is obtained based on the broken network information. In a specific example, the outage information may include at least one of the following: information indicating that the robot has broken a network, information for identifying the robot that has broken a network (e.g., robot number, robot ID, etc.), position information of the robot that has broken a network; other information can be contained according to actual needs, and the information is within the protection scope of the invention.
S12: and controlling at least one second robot to execute the network breaking rescue.
After the network breaking information of the first robot is obtained, the condition that the first robot breaks the network can be obtained based on the network breaking information, and at least one second robot is further controlled to rescue the first robot from breaking the network.
Only one first robot may break the network at the same time, and then the network breaking rescue is directly carried out on the one first robot; it is also possible that at least two first robots are disconnected simultaneously, and then each of the at least two first robots may be disconnected simultaneously or sequentially. In an exemplary scenario, if there are multiple (in the embodiment of the present invention, "multiple" refers to "at least two") first robots that break at the same time, then each of the multiple first robots needs to perform a network breaking rescue according to the method of the present invention; the second robots performing the offline rescue for each of the plurality of first robots may be different, i.e. a single second robot performs the offline rescue for only one first robot, or the second robots performing the offline rescue for each of the plurality of first robots may be at least partially identical, i.e. there is a single second robot performing the offline rescue for at least two first robots (either simultaneously or sequentially); the specific configuration may be set according to actual needs, and is not particularly limited herein. The network breaking rescue performed on one first robot may be performed by one second robot or may be performed by at least two second robots.
According to the invention, the network breaking information of the first robot can be obtained, and at least one second robot is controlled to execute corresponding network breaking rescue so as to recover the network of the first robot, so that the problems of traffic jam, efficiency reduction and the like caused by the network breaking of the robots in the prior art can be effectively avoided, and time and labor are saved.
According to the method for processing the robot network disconnection, the network disconnection information is information for identifying the first robot to execute the preset network disconnection behavior from the video and/or the image based on the visual method.
In one example, the robot is added with a heartbeat mechanism, when heartbeat information of the robot is not received for more than a predetermined time (such as 30 seconds), the robot is determined to be disconnected, and information representing the disconnection of the robot is taken as disconnected information. In another example, after the robot finds that the robot breaks the network, the robot may transmit the information that the robot breaks the network by executing a preset breaking action.
The method specifically describes the latter example, wherein the preset network breaking behavior is preset behavior for representing that the robot breaks the network, and the preset network breaking behavior can be identified based on methods such as vision, hearing, signal induction and the like; the preset off-grid behavior is preferably behavior recognized based on a visual recognition method, such as in-situ rotation, lamplight change and the like.
The specific explanation is made for the preset network disconnection behavior based on the behavior identified by the visual identification method, the video and/or the image obtained by shooting the first robot can be obtained first, then the information of the preset network disconnection behavior executed by the first robot is identified from the obtained video and/or image based on the visual identification method, and the network disconnection information is obtained (the network disconnection information only comprises the information indicating that the first robot is disconnected at this time, and of course, the identification information, the position information and the like of the first robot can also be added according to actual needs). The video and/or the image may be taken by any other camera other than the vehicle-mounted camera of the first robot, for example, the vehicle-mounted camera of the other robot other than the first robot, the camera of the video monitoring system, and the like, which are not particularly limited herein.
Therefore, the method and the device acquire the information of the first robot for executing the preset network breaking action from the video and/or the image based on the visual identification method, so that the acquisition of the network breaking information of the first robot can be realized, the method and the device are convenient and quick, the accuracy is higher, other sensing equipment is not required to be added, and the cost can be effectively controlled.
The method for processing the broken network of the robot, provided by the embodiment of the invention, can further comprise the following steps before controlling at least one second robot to execute the broken network rescue:
and determining the rescue position of the first robot based on the network breaking information.
When performing a network outage rescue on the first robot, a connection (which may include at least one of a physical connection and a wireless communication connection) may be established with the first robot to control the first robot to move based on the established connection. The connection with the first robot can be realized by the second robot at the current position, or can be realized by the corresponding second robot which needs to move to the rescue position; therefore, the first robot can be directly connected with the first robot without determining the rescue position in the former case, and the first robot can be connected with the first robot after the first robot moves to the rescue position after determining the rescue position in the latter case.
To determine the rescue position of the first robot, the position of the first robot may be determined first, and then a corresponding rescue position may be determined based on the position of the first robot. The obtaining of the position information of the first robot may be achieved by at least one of the following ways: in the first mode, the video and/or the image are/is acquired by a video monitoring system (such as a sky-eye system), and the video monitoring system can automatically determine the position of the first robot based on the monitored information, so that the video monitoring system can directly acquire the position information of the first robot; in a second aspect, the video and/or the image is acquired by another robot, and the positional information of the first robot may be acquired based on the relative positions between the other robot that acquired the video and/or the image and the first robot. Of course, other settings can be performed according to actual needs, which are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
Therefore, in the embodiment of the invention, before the at least one second robot is controlled to execute the network breaking rescue, the rescue position of the first robot is determined, and then the at least one second robot is controlled to move to the rescue position to execute the network breaking rescue on the first robot, so that the smooth implementation of the network breaking rescue on the first robot can be ensured.
As shown in fig. 2, a first flowchart for controlling at least one second robot to perform a network outage rescue may specifically include:
s21: at least one second robot is controlled to move to a rescue position, which is a position where a physical connection with the first robot can be established.
S22: and controlling at least one second robot to establish physical connection with the first robot, and driving the first robot to move to a first preset position based on the physical connection.
The embodiment of the invention can control the second robot to establish physical connection with the first robot so as to control the movement of the first robot based on the physical connection. The rescue position is a position which can establish physical connection with the first robot, such as a position of which the distance between the first robot and the rescue position is within a first specified value; the first predetermined location may be a location where the first robot can recover the network (a location where the communication signal quality of the first robot meets a predetermined requirement, such as a location in a non-weak network area), or a specific location specified by a manager (such as a corner in a robot work site to avoid blocking), or the like. Specifically, firstly, determining a position which can establish physical connection with a first robot as a rescue position, then controlling a second robot to move to the rescue position of the first robot, further controlling the second robot to establish physical connection with the first robot, and driving the first robot to move to a first preset position based on the established physical connection; therefore, the network breaking rescue of the first robot is effectively realized based on physical connection.
It should be noted that the physical connection needs to be implemented based on the corresponding structure. In one example, as shown in fig. 3, the body of the second robot may include a body and a fork portion disposed at one side of the body, and after the second robot moves to a rescue position, the fork portion may be aligned to the bottom of the first robot by adjusting its pose, and the first robot may be forked from the bottom of the first robot by using the fork to establish physical connection; further, the bottom of the first robot may be provided with a docking portion, which refers to a certain height space formed between the bottom of the first robot and a plane where the first robot is placed, so that tines of the second robot may be inserted into the docking portion of the first robot to fork the first robot. In another example, the second robot and the first robot may be connected by magnetic attraction, at this time, the second robot is provided with a second magnetic attraction component capable of being attracted by magnetic attraction, the first robot is provided with a first magnetic attraction component capable of being attracted by magnetic attraction, and the heights of the first magnetic attraction component and the second magnetic attraction component are the same, as shown in fig. 4; based on the scene that the robot is a first robot when the robot breaks the network and is a second robot when the robot performs broken network rescue, the first magnetic component and the second magnetic component can be respectively arranged on different surfaces (such as two opposite surfaces) of the same robot, and other settings can be performed according to actual needs, so that the robot is within the protection scope of the invention; after the second robot moves to the rescue position, the second magnetic component can be attracted with the first magnetic component of the first robot by adjusting the pose of the second robot so as to establish physical connection. In another example, as shown in fig. 5, the second robot may have a towing hook, the first robot may have a towing loop, and after the second robot moves to the rescue position, the second robot may adjust its own position and the position of the towing hook so that the towing hook falls into the towing loop of the first robot to achieve establishment of the physical connection. Of course, other modes capable of realizing physical connection between the first robot and the second robot can be set according to actual needs, and all the modes are within the protection scope of the invention.
As shown in fig. 6, a second flowchart for controlling at least one second robot to perform a network outage rescue may specifically include:
s61: at least one second robot is controlled to move to a rescue position, wherein the rescue position is a position capable of establishing wireless communication connection with the first robot.
S62: and controlling at least one second robot to establish a wireless communication connection with the first robot, and transmitting control information to the first robot based on the wireless communication connection to control the first robot to move to a second preset position based on the control information.
The rescue position is a position where the communication signal quality of the second robot meets the preset requirement.
The embodiment of the invention can control the second robot to establish wireless communication connection with the first robot so as to control the first robot to move based on the wireless communication connection. The first robot and the second robot are connected by a network, wherein the wireless communication connection is established, namely the network connection is established, the rescue position is a position which can establish the wireless communication connection with the first robot, such as a position of which the distance between the first robot and the second robot is within a second specified value (no matter what network environment is, the wireless communication connection between the second robot and the first robot can be established as long as the wireless communication function between the second robot and the first robot is normal and the distance between the second robot and the first robot is within the second specified value); the second predetermined location may be a location where the first robot can recover the network (a location where the communication signal quality of the first robot meets a predetermined requirement, such as a location in a non-weak network area), or a specific location specified by a manager (such as a corner in a robot work site to avoid blocking), or the like. Specifically, firstly, determining a position which can establish wireless communication connection with a first robot as a rescue position, then controlling a second robot to move to the rescue position of the first robot (the number of the rescue positions of the first robot is the same as that of the second robots which execute the network breaking rescue on the first robot, so that the second robots which execute the network breaking rescue on the first robot move to the rescue position of the first robot in a one-to-one correspondence manner), further controlling the second robot to establish wireless communication connection with the first robot, and driving the first robot to move to a second preset position based on the established wireless communication connection; therefore, the network breaking rescue of the first robot is effectively realized based on wireless communication connection.
Specific explanation is given to selection of one first robot rescue position and establishment of wireless communication connection under different conditions. Under the first condition, the second robot is authorized to serve as a main body to directly control the movement of the first robot, and at the moment, any position which can establish wireless communication connection with the first robot is only required to be determined as a rescue position, so that the second robot can establish wireless communication connection with the first robot after moving to the rescue position; in the second case, the dispatch system controls the movement of the first robot by the second robot as a main body, at this time, it is possible to determine whether there is a position capable of simultaneously establishing wireless communication connection with the first robot and the dispatch system, if yes, it is determined that the position capable of simultaneously establishing wireless communication connection with the first robot and the dispatch system is a rescue position, so that the second robot can establish wireless communication connection with the first robot while maintaining wireless communication connection with the dispatch system after moving to the rescue position (the second robot realizes a relay function), if no, it is necessary to determine a plurality of positions as rescue positions, at least one position capable of establishing wireless communication connection with the first robot and at least one position capable of maintaining wireless communication connection with the dispatch system exist simultaneously, and wireless communication connection can be realized between every two rescue positions, so that after moving to each rescue position in a one-to-one correspondence, wireless communication connection with the dispatch system is maintained by relay. The position where the second robot can perform wireless communication connection with the dispatching system is a position where the communication signal quality of the second robot meets a predetermined requirement (when the second robot can perform wireless communication connection with the dispatching system, for example, when the second robot is located in a non-weak network area); correspondingly, the rescue position only comprises a position which can establish wireless communication connection with at least the first robot, or the rescue position simultaneously comprises a position which can establish wireless communication connection with at least the first robot and a position of which the communication signal quality of the second robot meets the preset requirement.
In the case where one first robot has a plurality of rescue positions, the plurality of rescue positions may be set on a straight line including the position of the first robot and the position closest to the first robot in the non-weak network area, so that the relay effect can be achieved by using as few second robots as possible. In addition, in order to avoid the network breaking again in the motion process of the first robot, the second robot can be instructed to keep the relative position unchanged and follow the corresponding first robot to move, and at the moment, the corresponding first robot motion path needs to be ensured according to the condition that the second robot is used as a relay robot, so that the second robot which can keep wireless communication connection with the dispatching system is always present in the motion process of the second robot.
In a specific example, the rescue location may include a location where a wireless communication connection may be established with the first robot (or with the dispatch system at the same time) and a location where a physical connection may be established with the first robot, the second robot may attempt to establish a wireless communication connection with the first robot after moving to a location where a wireless communication connection may be established with the first robot, and if the establishment is successful, the movement of the first robot is controlled in a manner after the establishment of the wireless communication connection, otherwise, the second robot moves to a location where a physical connection may be established with the first robot, so as to control the movement of the first robot after the physical connection is established with the first robot. In another specific example, the rescue location may be a location where a wireless communication connection and a physical connection may be established with the first robot (or with the dispatch system at the same time), and the second robot may attempt to establish a wireless communication connection with the first robot after moving to the rescue location, and if the establishment is successful, control the movement of the first robot in a manner after the establishment of the wireless communication connection, otherwise, control the movement of the first robot after the establishment of the physical connection with the first robot. In addition, after the wireless communication connection establishment attempt to the first robot fails, the first robot is likely to have a fault, and at this time, corresponding information may be reported to the scheduling system or the management terminal, so that the situation may be known and processed in time.
In an embodiment of the present invention, the control information may include at least one of the following:
(1) Position information of the first robot;
(2) Planning path information of the first robot;
(3) The following target information of the first robot;
(4) Relaying, by at least one second robot, the forwarded network information;
(5) Updated network connection information.
The control information may include location information of the first robot such that the second robot achieves positioning of the first robot based on the location information, and the first robot achieves self-positioning based on the location information. The control information may include planned path information of the first robot, so that the first robot moves autonomously according to the planned path, for example, the planned path may be a path that travels to a position where the communication signal quality of the first robot meets a predetermined requirement in the shortest distance, or the planned path may be a path that the first robot completes a task, or the planned path may be a path that ensures that the second robot always has a second robot that can maintain wireless communication connection with the scheduling system in the moving process of the first robot. The control information may include information of a following target of the first robot, so that the first robot moves to a position where the quality of a communication signal of the first robot meets a predetermined requirement along with the following target, and at this time, the target may be the second robot or may be another object selected according to actual needs. The control information may include updated network connection information, and when the network device that currently provides the network service fails, the standby network device that can work normally may be started to provide the network service, or other network devices that can work normally may be selected to provide the network service as the standby network device, and the network connection information that uses the standby network device to provide the network service is provided to the first robot, so that the first robot replaces the existing network connection information with the received network connection information, so as to use the network service provided by the standby network device and recover the wireless communication connection; the device information (such as device identifier, device attribute, etc.) of the standby network device may also be sent to the first robot, so that the first robot updates the existing network connection information to network connection information of a network service provided by the standby network device, so as to use the network service provided by the standby network device and restore the wireless communication connection.
