Description

畦田式無人載具自動導航系統及其方法Qitian type unmanned vehicle automatic navigation system and method thereof

本發明係有關一種自動導航系統,特別是指一種畦田式無人載具自動導航系統及其方法。The present invention relates to an automatic navigation system, in particular to a border type unmanned vehicle automatic navigation system and a method thereof.

如第2圖所示,畦田式的農田10中具有隆起的畦田12和凹陷的畦溝14,農作物種植在畦田12上,而農民行走、農用機具行進、灌溉則是在畦溝14上。目前灑種子、除草、施肥等等的任務,皆需要人工進行。後續已發展出各種農機取代純人工施作,由人駕駛農機以節省人力負擔。As shown in Figure 2, the border-style farmland 10 has a raised border 12 and a concave border 14. Crops are planted on the border 12, while farmers walk, use agricultural machinery, and irrigate on the border 14. Currently, tasks such as spreading seeds, weeding, fertilizing, etc. all need to be done manually. Subsequently, various agricultural machinery have been developed to replace purely manual work, with humans driving the agricultural machinery to save labor burden.

雖然有農機可取代徒步人力,還是需要人力駕駛,若廣闊的田地(如大豆農場)縱使有農機,對農民而言仍然需要在烈日下進行長時間的體力勞動。若只有一個人會駕駛農機,則各階段的農作都只能由單人承擔,無法提高生產力及農場管理效率,並且長時人力付出,可能導致疲勞駕駛、衍生專注力失調及產生安全問題。因此,將農機自動化可大幅提升農業生產力及管理效率。Although there are agricultural machinery that can replace human labor on foot, human driving is still required. Even if there are agricultural machinery in vast fields (such as soybean farms), farmers still need to perform long periods of physical labor under the scorching sun. If only one person can drive agricultural machinery, each stage of farming can only be undertaken by a single person, which cannot improve productivity and farm management efficiency. Moreover, long-term manpower expenditure may lead to fatigue driving, concentration disorders, and safety problems. Therefore, automating agricultural machinery can significantly improve agricultural productivity and management efficiency.

而為了提升農業生產力及管理效率,習知技術已有提出農機自動化的相關專利。例如,本國公開號第202030497號專利「導航系統及導航系統的操作方法」,其利用發射出一雷達信號,依據雷達信號被物體反射回來的時間差以計算本地與物體之間的距離,並進行障礙物偵測以得知周遭物體位置的分布資訊。然而,在實際農業應用中,雷達裝置與導航裝置皆為不小的開銷。因此,若將雷達裝置安裝在農機上,會大幅增加成本。又如本國公告號第I389635號專利「複式導向工作車」,其利用預定的軌道讓車子行走,達到不同任務需求。然而,此方法只能讓工作車在預定的實質軌道上行走。若要到一個新的地方使用工作車的話,則必須重新安裝軌道,相當不便。而且,軌道也是一筆額外的成本支出。In order to improve agricultural productivity and management efficiency, Xinzhi Technology has proposed patents related to agricultural machinery automation. For example, the National Patent No. 202030497 "Navigation System and Operation Method of Navigation System" uses a radar signal to be emitted, and the distance between the local area and the object is calculated based on the time difference between the radar signal being reflected by the object, and obstacles are detected. Object detection to obtain the distribution information of the location of surrounding objects. However, in actual agricultural applications, both radar devices and navigation devices are expensive. Therefore, if the radar device is installed on agricultural machinery, the cost will increase significantly. Another example is the "Compound Guided Work Vehicle" patented by the country's patent No. I389635, which uses predetermined tracks to move the vehicle to meet different task requirements. However, this method can only allow the work vehicle to walk on a predetermined physical track. If you want to use the work vehicle in a new place, you must reinstall the track, which is quite inconvenient. Also, the track is an additional cost.

因此,本發明針對上述習知技術之缺失及未來之需求,提出一種畦田式無人載具自動導航系統及其方法,用無人車的方式自主導航前進,具體架構及其實施方式將詳述於下:Therefore, in view of the shortcomings of the above-mentioned conventional technologies and future needs, the present invention proposes a border-type unmanned vehicle automatic navigation system and its method, which uses an unmanned vehicle to navigate forward autonomously.

請同時參考第1圖,其為本發明畦田式無人載具自動導航系統20之方塊圖。本發明之畦田式無人載具自動導航系統20係裝設於移動載具16上,包括影像擷取裝置22及處理器24,其中,影像擷取裝置22用以擷取路面影像,包含畦田12、畦溝14和可能出現的障礙物;處理器24中更包括一影像處理模組242、一標註分析模組244、一語義分割模組246、一視覺化模組247、一行進資訊模組248及一行進控制模組249。影像處理模組242連接影像擷取裝置22,用以對路面影像進行預處理,例如調整路面影像之尺寸,使影像的尺寸符合後續需要,或是只擷取影像中的一部分感興趣區域。此外,預處理還包括對路面影像進行色彩表徵值之調整,如調整色相(Hue)、飽和度(Saturation)、明度(Value)、亮度(Lightness)或包含前述表徵值的HSV或HSL色彩空間等。此外,預處理還包括對路面影像進行採樣,因此傳送到後方標註分析模組244的僅有少量影像,舉例而言,假設影像擷取模組每秒可擷取30張路面影像,在訓練模式下,將各式條件都加入考慮,包括各種植株生長期、光線變化…等差異,各個場域分別取數張影像,例如取若干張影像,每一種類的影像張數都不會太多張,增加取樣的廣度,可以促成完整的訓練。而當實際進行判讀而非訓練模式時,則取樣較多張影像,且不再考慮各種條件,例如每秒影像取其中的6張或10張,或總數1000張取其中的700張,將該些取樣的影像輸入到語義分割模組246訓練好的推論模型中,形成連續的行進結果。Please also refer to Figure 1 , which is a block diagram of the border-type unmanned vehicle automatic navigation system 20 of the present invention. The border type unmanned vehicle automatic navigation system 20 of the present invention is installed on the mobile vehicle 16 and includes an image capture device 22 and a processor 24. The image capture device 22 is used to capture road images, including the border 12 , ditch 14 and possible obstacles; the processor 24 further includes an image processing module 242, an annotation analysis module 244, a semantic segmentation module 246, a visualization module 247, and a traveling information module. 248 and a travel control module 249. The image processing module 242 is connected to the image capture device 22 to pre-process the road surface image, such as adjusting the size of the road surface image to meet subsequent needs, or capturing only a part of the area of interest in the image. In addition, preprocessing also includes adjusting the color representation values of the road image, such as adjusting the hue (Hue), saturation (Saturation), value (Value), brightness (Lightness), or the HSV or HSL color space containing the aforementioned representation values, etc. . In addition, preprocessing also includes sampling road surface images, so only a small number of images are sent to the rear annotation analysis module 244. For example, assuming that the image capture module can capture 30 road surface images per second, in the training mode Next, various conditions are taken into consideration, including differences in growth stages of various plants, light changes, etc., and several images are taken for each field. For example, several images are taken. The number of images of each type will not be too many. , increasing the breadth of sampling can lead to complete training. When the interpretation is actually performed instead of the training mode, more images are sampled, and various conditions are no longer considered. For example, 6 or 10 images are taken per second, or 700 of the total 1,000 images are taken, and the These sampled images are input into the inference model trained by the semantic segmentation module 246 to form a continuous traveling result.

標註分析模組244在路面影像上產生複數標註,標註是以識別路面影像中之地形,在一實施例中,此標註是由標註分析模組244依據使用者所標註的結果所產生的,例如提供一使用者介面(圖中未示),並在使用者介面上提供「畦田」、「畦溝」或其他選項供使用者選擇,或是提供一輸入裝置(圖中未示)如鍵盤、手寫板等,讓使用者利用輸入裝置在使用者介面上輸入標註,例如輸入第1圖中的「畦田」和「畦溝」等標註。在一實施例中,所謂的標註是由使用者在路面影像上指定片段或線段,連成一個區域做框選,產生地形區塊。The annotation analysis module 244 generates multiple annotations on the road surface image. The annotation is used to identify the terrain in the road surface image. In one embodiment, the annotation analysis module 244 generates multiple annotations based on the annotation results of the user, for example Provide a user interface (not shown in the figure), and provide "Qi Tian", "Qi Gou" or other options on the user interface for the user to choose, or provide an input device (not shown in the figure) such as a keyboard, A handwriting pad, etc., allows the user to use the input device to input annotations on the user interface, for example, input annotations such as "Qi Tian" and "Qi Ditch" in Figure 1. In one embodiment, the so-called annotation is performed by the user specifying segments or line segments on the road surface image and connecting them into an area for frame selection to generate a terrain block.

語義分割模組246連接標註分析模組244,用以訓練一AI模型,更具體而言,語義分割模組246先建立一推論模型,再利用至少一種語義分割式人工智慧演算法及包含標註之路面影像對推論模型進行訓練,此推論模型通常是深度學習的神經網路模型,進而訓練出具有人工智慧的推論模型,因此,推論模型可利用人工智慧對影像進行語義分割,自動辨識出地形並輸出一地形辨識結果,例如訓練後的推論模型可辨識出路面影像中何處為畦田、何處為畦溝。在訓練的過程,語義分割模組246可以接收作物不同成長時期(發芽、開花、成熟等)、不同光線條件以及不同乾溼狀態的土壤等,比較具有代表性的路面影像進行訓練。The semantic segmentation module 246 is connected to the annotation analysis module 244 to train an AI model. More specifically, the semantic segmentation module 246 first establishes an inference model, and then uses at least one semantic segmentation artificial intelligence algorithm and annotation-based artificial intelligence algorithm. Pavement images are used to train the inference model. This inference model is usually a deep learning neural network model, and then an inference model with artificial intelligence is trained. Therefore, the inference model can use artificial intelligence to perform semantic segmentation on the image, automatically identify the terrain, and Output a terrain recognition result. For example, the trained inference model can identify where are the borders and where are the borders in the road image. During the training process, the semantic segmentation module 246 can receive representative road images of crops in different growth stages (germination, flowering, maturity, etc.), different light conditions, and soil in different dry and wet conditions for training.

行進資訊模組248連接語義分割模組246,行進資訊模組248依據語義分割模組246所輸出之地形辨識結果,結合至少一種導航資訊演算法,計算出適合移動載具16行進的一組軌跡資訊,包括移動載具16的車輪軌跡、質心軌跡、行進的線速度及角速度。地形辨識結果包括在路面影像上的地形區塊,地形區塊包括畦田區塊及畦溝區塊。在本實施例中,依據應用場域的操作者預先設定移動載具可行的線速度來行進。接著,可先利用判斷畦溝區塊的兩側邊緣,找出兩側邊緣的中心點並連成一線,用以在畦溝區塊上產生移動載具16的車輪軌跡,本發明需要在二個畦溝區塊上產生兩條車輪軌跡。其次,取此兩條車輪軌跡的中心點並連成一線,此線段位於兩條車輪軌跡的中間,即為移動載具16的質心軌跡,一般而言此質心軌跡會落在畦田區塊上。接著,再依據質心軌跡的偏移量計算出移動載具16的角速度。在另一未繪示的實施例中,在產生地形區塊後,可利用其他習知的導航資訊演算法找出移動載具16的軌跡資訊,並不以此為限。The traveling information module 248 is connected to the semantic segmentation module 246. The traveling information module 248 calculates a set of trajectories suitable for the traveling of the mobile vehicle 16 based on the terrain recognition results output by the semantic segmentation module 246 and combined with at least one navigation information algorithm. The information includes the wheel trajectory, center of mass trajectory, linear velocity and angular velocity of the mobile vehicle 16 . The terrain recognition results include terrain blocks on the road surface image, and the terrain blocks include border blocks and border blocks. In this embodiment, the operator of the application field presets the feasible linear speed of the mobile vehicle to travel. Then, the edges on both sides of the ditch block can be judged first, and the center points of the two edges can be found and connected in a line to generate the wheel trajectory of the mobile vehicle 16 on the ditch block. The present invention requires two steps. Two wheel tracks are generated on each ditch block. Secondly, take the center points of the two wheel trajectories and connect them into a line. This line segment is located in the middle of the two wheel trajectories, which is the centroid trajectory of the mobile vehicle 16. Generally speaking, this centroid trajectory will fall in the Qitian area. superior. Then, the angular velocity of the mobile carrier 16 is calculated based on the offset of the center of mass trajectory. In another not-shown embodiment, after the terrain blocks are generated, other conventional navigation information algorithms can be used to find the trajectory information of the mobile vehicle 16 , but the invention is not limited thereto.

在產生線速度及角速度之後,行進資訊模組248將全部或部分的軌跡資訊傳送給行進控制模組249,例如僅將線速度和角速度提供給行進控制模組249。行進控制模組249連接行進資訊模組248及移動載具16,當接收部分或全部之軌跡資訊後,根據軌跡資訊對移動載具16進行自動導航。舉例來說,移動載具16具有多個車輪(未繪示)以及一底盤(未繪示),行進控制模組249可根據軌跡資訊控制移動載具16的不同輪子的轉速、方向等,以改變移動載具16的行進方向、速度等。After generating the linear velocity and angular velocity, the traveling information module 248 transmits all or part of the trajectory information to the traveling control module 249 , for example, only the linear velocity and the angular velocity are provided to the traveling control module 249 . The travel control module 249 is connected to the travel information module 248 and the mobile vehicle 16. After receiving part or all of the trajectory information, it automatically navigates the mobile vehicle 16 according to the trajectory information. For example, the mobile vehicle 16 has multiple wheels (not shown) and a chassis (not shown). The travel control module 249 can control the rotation speed and direction of different wheels of the mobile vehicle 16 according to the trajectory information, so as to Change the traveling direction, speed, etc. of the mobile vehicle 16.

特別的是,影像處理模組242的後端同時連接標註分析模組244及語義分割模組246,若是在推論模型的訓練階段,則將預處理後的路面影像傳送到標註分析模組244以產生標註,提供給語義分割模組246去訓練推論模型。但若推論模型已經訓練完成,是在實際運用的階段,則標註分析模組244不須再提供訓練推論模型用的標註,此時影像處理模組242會將預處理後的路面影像直接傳送到語義分割模組246,利用推論模型進行地形辨識。In particular, the backend of the image processing module 242 is connected to the annotation analysis module 244 and the semantic segmentation module 246 at the same time. If it is in the training stage of the inference model, the preprocessed road image is sent to the annotation analysis module 244. Annotations are generated and provided to the semantic segmentation module 246 to train the inference model. However, if the inference model has been trained and is in the actual application stage, the annotation analysis module 244 no longer needs to provide annotations for training the inference model. At this time, the image processing module 242 will directly transmit the preprocessed road surface image to Semantic segmentation module 246 uses inference models for terrain recognition.

以下提供一實施例說明本發明之畦田式無人載具自動導航系統10的導航方法。請同時參考第2圖~第4E圖。首先影像擷取裝置22擷取多個路面影像,路面影像包含畦田12及畦溝14,如第4A圖所示。接著路面影像在影像處理模組242中進行預處理,例如調整路面影像的尺寸,將其縮小或放大,如第4B圖所示。接著,如第4C圖所示,利用標註分析模組244在預處理後的路面影像上進行標註,標出「畦田」和「畦溝」。第4D圖中,語義分割模組246利用語義分割相關的演算法在路面影像上框出複數地形區塊,其包括畦田區塊32及畦溝區塊34,分別代表可種植的畦田12及移動載具16可移動的畦溝14(如第2圖所示)。語義分割模組246並根據包含標註的該些地形區塊訓練出可分析地形的推論模型,當推論模型訓練完成之後,新擷取的路面影像經過影像處理模組242進行預處理後(如第4B圖)便可直接傳送到語義分割模組246,並由語義分割模組246在路面影像上利用該推論模型產生複數地形區塊,產生如第4D圖的地形辨識結果並輸出。接著如第4E圖所示,行進資訊模組246在第4D圖的基礎上,依據地形辨識結果結合導航資訊相關的演算法,計算出適合移動載具行進的一組軌跡資訊,包括移動載具16在畦溝區塊34上移動的車輪軌跡、在畦田區塊32上的質心軌跡、行進的線速度及角速度。An embodiment is provided below to illustrate the navigation method of the Qitian-type unmanned vehicle automatic navigation system 10 of the present invention. Please also refer to Figure 2 ~ Figure 4E. First, the image capturing device 22 captures multiple road surface images, and the road surface images include border fields 12 and border ditches 14, as shown in Figure 4A. The road surface image is then pre-processed in the image processing module 242, such as adjusting the size of the road surface image, reducing or enlarging it, as shown in Figure 4B. Next, as shown in Figure 4C, the annotation analysis module 244 is used to annotate the preprocessed road surface image, and mark "edge fields" and "edge ditches". In Figure 4D, the semantic segmentation module 246 uses algorithms related to semantic segmentation to frame a plurality of terrain blocks on the road surface image, including a border block 32 and a border block 34, which respectively represent the plantable border area 12 and mobile fields. The carrier 16 has a movable furrow 14 (as shown in Figure 2). The semantic segmentation module 246 trains an inference model that can analyze the terrain based on the terrain blocks containing the annotation. After the inference model training is completed, the newly captured road surface image is preprocessed by the image processing module 242 (as shown in Section 2). 4B) can be directly sent to the semantic segmentation module 246, and the semantic segmentation module 246 uses the inference model to generate a plurality of terrain blocks on the road image, and generates and outputs the terrain recognition results as shown in Figure 4D. Then, as shown in Figure 4E, the travel information module 246 calculates a set of trajectory information suitable for the movement of the mobile vehicle based on the terrain recognition results and the algorithm related to the navigation information based on the Figure 4D, including the mobile vehicle. 16. The track of the wheel moving on the furrow block 34, the trajectory of the center of mass on the furrow block 32, the linear velocity and the angular velocity of travel.

請參考第5圖,其為本發明在路面影像上計算車輪軌跡、質心軌跡、行進的線速度及角速度之示意圖。此張路面影像為經預處理調整尺寸的路面影像,車輪軌跡是取畦溝區塊34的中心線,因此A、B兩點分別為左、右兩側畦溝區塊34的畫面底部的中心點。質心軌跡則為二車輪軌跡的中心線,因此C點為A、B兩點的中心點。從第5圖可看出C並不在畫面底部的中心位置C’,並有一偏移量d,代表移動載具16的行進路線偏移,需校正。故利用此偏移量d計算出移動載具16的角速度,使質心軌跡的底部起點C回歸到畫面的中心位置。而移動載具16通常等速前進,因此線速度固定不變。Please refer to Figure 5, which is a schematic diagram of the present invention's calculation of wheel trajectory, center of mass trajectory, traveling linear velocity and angular velocity on the road surface image. This road surface image is a pre-processed and resized road surface image. The wheel track is taken from the center line of the ditch block 34. Therefore, points A and B are the centers of the bottom of the screen of the ditch blocks 34 on the left and right sides respectively. point. The center of mass trajectory is the center line of the two wheel trajectories, so point C is the center point of points A and B. It can be seen from Figure 5 that C is not at the center position C’ at the bottom of the screen, and there is an offset d, which represents the offset of the traveling route of the mobile vehicle 16 and needs to be corrected. Therefore, the offset d is used to calculate the angular velocity of the mobile vehicle 16 so that the bottom starting point C of the center of mass trajectory returns to the center of the screen. The mobile vehicle 16 usually moves forward at a constant speed, so the linear speed is fixed.

第5圖無法呈現出線速度和角速度,但只需提供線速度和角速度給行進控制模組249,行進控制模組249即可據以控制前進方向及煞車,因此實質上給予行進控制模組249的導航資訊為線速度和角速度。Figure 5 cannot show the linear velocity and angular velocity, but only needs to provide the linear velocity and angular velocity to the travel control module 249, and the travel control module 249 can control the forward direction and braking accordingly, so essentially giving the travel control module 249 The navigation information is linear velocity and angular velocity.

在一實施例中,本發明中的視覺化模組247與語義分割模組246及行進資訊模組248連接,用以顯示語義分割模組246所產生的地形區塊,並在地形區塊上顯示出行進資訊模組248所產生的車輪軌跡及質心軌跡。視覺化模組247包含一個顯示介面,將如第4D圖及第4E圖之地形區塊、車輪軌跡和質心軌跡呈現給使用者觀看。特別是視覺化模組可將地形區塊、車輪軌跡和質心軌跡等軌跡資訊以不同顏色、色塊、線條顯示出來,讓使用者可直觀地看到移動載具16的移動軌跡。In one embodiment, the visualization module 247 in the present invention is connected to the semantic segmentation module 246 and the traveling information module 248 to display the terrain blocks generated by the semantic segmentation module 246, and on the terrain blocks The wheel trajectory and center of mass trajectory generated by the travel information module 248 are displayed. The visualization module 247 includes a display interface that presents terrain blocks, wheel trajectories and center-of-mass trajectories as shown in Figure 4D and Figure 4E to the user for viewing. In particular, the visualization module can display trajectory information such as terrain blocks, wheel trajectories, and center-of-mass trajectories in different colors, color blocks, and lines, allowing users to intuitively see the movement trajectory of the mobile vehicle 16 .

若前方具有障礙物時,如第6A圖所示,在右側的畦溝14上出現了障礙物30,此時語義分割模組246所產生的地形區塊會如第6B圖所示,右側的畦溝14對應到地形區塊中的畦溝區塊34a,其為語義分割模組246所推論的有空白裂塊情形之地形區塊。當行進資訊模組248依據語義分割模組246輸出的地形辨識結果中所包含的地形區塊要產生軌跡資訊時,首先在產生車輪軌跡時就會發現畦溝區塊34a的車輪軌跡中斷,因此會提示行進資訊模組248需要剎車,如此一來,行進資訊模組248提供給行進控制模組249的線速度和角速度都會為零,以避免移動載具16撞到障礙物30。If there is an obstacle ahead, as shown in Figure 6A, the obstacle 30 appears on the ditch 14 on the right. At this time, the terrain block generated by the semantic segmentation module 246 will be as shown in Figure 6B. The furrow 14 corresponds to the furrow block 34a in the terrain block, which is a terrain block inferred by the semantic segmentation module 246 with a blank split block situation. When the traveling information module 248 generates trajectory information based on the terrain blocks included in the terrain recognition results output by the semantic segmentation module 246, it will first find that the wheel trajectory of the ditch block 34a is interrupted when generating the wheel trajectory. Therefore, It will prompt that the traveling information module 248 needs to brake. In this case, the linear velocity and angular velocity provided by the traveling information module 248 to the traveling control module 249 will be zero to prevent the mobile vehicle 16 from hitting the obstacle 30 .

因此,藉由本發明所提供之畦田式無人載具自動導航系統及其方法,其只需使用各類環境(土壤乾溼、光線強弱…等)條件及植株各種生長期之下少量的前方道路影像,便可訓練出可辨識地形的推論模型,結合導航資訊演算法後即可控制完成移動載具移動,且不會受到陽光強弱、植物大小、土壤狀況等因素而影響導航效果。藉由本發明,不但可減少農民的體力勞動,更可同時多台移動載具同時施作,提高農業生產力,並藉由計算出的軌跡資訊統計每日的移動距離、了解施作進度,如此一來將可提高農場管理效率。Therefore, through the field-type unmanned vehicle automatic navigation system and method provided by the present invention, it only needs to use a small amount of images of the road ahead under various environmental conditions (dry and wet soil, light intensity, etc.) and various growth stages of plants. , an inference model that can identify the terrain can be trained, and combined with the navigation information algorithm, the mobile vehicle can be controlled to move without being affected by factors such as sunlight intensity, plant size, soil conditions, etc. The navigation effect will not be affected. The present invention not only reduces the physical labor of farmers, but also enables multiple mobile vehicles to perform operations at the same time, thereby improving agricultural productivity. The calculated trajectory information can be used to count the daily movement distance and understand the application progress. In this way, This will improve farm management efficiency in the future.
