In the embodiment, the tracking behavior of the mobile robot is controlled by comparing the pose adjustment result of the movable support assembly on the infrared vision mechanism with the pre-configured standard quantity, and the method is particularly suitable for tracking the behavior of a moving human body and is suitable for the intelligent home service robot to effectively move along with a target human body in real time.
According to the tracking control logic of the previous embodiment, when the current test height of the infrared camera on the vertical support is adjusted to be larger than the standard test height through the locking structure and/or the current acquisition included angle of the infrared camera relative to the advancing direction of the mobile robot is adjusted to be smaller than the standard acquisition included angle through the rotating table base, it is determined that the distance between the tracking target and the robot base is smaller than the standard tracking distance; then the robot base is controlled to move linearly towards the direction far away from the current position of the tracking target until the distance between the mobile robot and the tracking target is increased to the standard tracking distance; then the current test height of the infrared camera on the vertical support is adjusted to be equal to the standard test height through the locking structure, and/or the current collection included angle of the infrared camera relative to the advancing direction of the mobile robot is adjusted to be equal to the standard collection included angle through the rotating table base. In this embodiment, the configuration conditions of the tracking behavior parameters of the mobile robot are suitable for detecting a tracking target by using an infrared transmitting tube, so that interference or damage to normal vision of a human body tracked by the robot is avoided.
In summary, the foregoing embodiments achieve: and determining the position information of the tracking target based on the light spot image acquired by the infrared camera at the corresponding test height position, and then controlling the robot base to move until the distance between the robot base and the tracking target maintains a standard tracking distance. The mobile robot can effectively track and position the target object, and the success rate of tracking the tracked target human body by the mobile robot is improved.
Preferably, the distance between the robot base 107 and the tracking target (human body) is a straight-line distance obtained by the processing unit performing triangular geometric calculation according to height information of infrared light spot feature points included in the light spot image of the tracking target; in the embodiment, a geometric triangular model is established by analyzing information such as the position and the length of a bright line irradiated by infrared modulation light in an image, and meanwhile, the position coordinate value of the tracking target can be converted and calculated by combining the rigid relation between the infrared camera 101 and the infrared transmitting tube 102 which are arranged on the bearing structure 103, so that the robot can judge the distance between an obstacle and the opposite machine body.
Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention and not to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that: the invention can be modified or equivalent substituted for some technical features; without departing from the spirit of the present invention, it should be understood that the scope of the claims is intended to cover all such modifications and variations.
