下面结合附图和实施例对本公开作进一步的详细说明。可以理解的是,此处所描述的具体实施例仅仅用于解释相关发明,而非对该发明的限定。另外还需要说明的是,为了便于描述,附图中仅示出了与有关发明相关的部分。
需要说明的是,在不冲突的情况下,本公开中的实施例及实施例中的特征可以相互组合。下面将参考附图并结合实施例来详细说明本公开。
请参考图1,图1是本公开的一个实施例的对接装置的结构示意图。
如图1所示,对接装置包括处理器10和与处理器10电连接的多个光敏感器件11,多个光敏感器件11中包括目标光敏感器件12。
其中,处理器10首先从上述多个光敏感器件中确定接收到激光的光敏感器件。其中,上述激光由与上述对接装置进行对接的对端装置发射。然后,处理器10根据上述接收到激光的光敏感器件与目标光敏感器件12之间的位置偏移,控制上述对接装置移动到由上述目标光敏感器件12标定的对接位置,以使上述对接装置与上述对端装置对接。
在这里,上述对端装置可以通过固定安装于其上的激光发射器发 射激光。目标光敏感器件的位置可以用于标定对接装置和与对接装置对接的对端装置之间的对接位置。
作为示例,请参考图2A和图2B,图2A和图2B是根据本公开的对接装置与对端装置进行对接的示意图。
如图2A所示,对端装置2包括固定安装于其上的激光发射器21。激光发射器21可以发射激光22。当激光发射器21向对接装置1包括的多个光敏感器件所在的位置区域内发射激光22时,多个光敏感器件中的、接收到激光22的光敏感器件的电阻将变小。由此,与多个光敏感器件电连接的处理器10可以根据各个光敏感器件的电阻或者电压,来确定出接收到激光22的光敏感器件13。在这里,各个光敏感器件的位置信息可以预先存储于处理器10中。
下面请参考图2B,处理器10可以计算出接收到激光的光敏感器件13与目标光敏感器件12之间的位置偏移。其中,位置偏移指示接收到激光的光敏感器件13与目标光敏感器件12之间的相对位置(例如接收到激光的光敏感器件13与目标光敏感器件12之间的距离、目标光敏感器件12相对于接收到激光的光敏感器件13的方向)。在得到位置偏移之后,处理器10可以控制上述对接装置1移动到由上述目标光敏感器件12标定的对接位置,以使上述对接装置1与上述对端装置2对接。
上述各光敏感器件的尺寸可以是预先设定的,每个光敏感器件的光感应面积有限。由于激光发射器的位置是固定的,则不同的光敏感器件接收到激光可以表征对接装置与对端装置处于不同的相对位置。
上述各光敏感器件的尺寸、型号、参数(例如最高反向工作电压、结电容、电阻)等属性可以是彼此相同的,也可以是彼此不同的。作为示例,上述多个光敏感器件中,可以有至少一个光敏感器件的尺寸与上述多个光敏感器件中除该光敏感器件之外的其他光敏感器件不同。
可以理解,在本实施例中,上述对接位置表示对接装置和与其对接的对端装置可成功对接的相对位置,该对接位置可以由目标光敏感器件12标定。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,上述对接位置为上述目标 光敏感器件接收到上述对端装置发射的激光的位置。当安装在对端装置的固定位置上的激光发射器发射的激光被目标光敏感器件接收到时,对接装置和与其对接的对端装置的相对位置为标定的对接位置,二者可成功对接。
当上述对接位置为上述目标光敏感器件接收到上述对端装置发射的激光的位置时,图2B所示的应用场景中,对接装置1进行移动的距离即为收到激光的光敏感器件13与目标光敏感器件12之间的距离,对接装置1进行移动的方向即为:以目标光敏感器件12所在的位置为起点,以收到激光的光敏感器件13所在的位置为终点的方向。由此,在得到指示对接装置进行移动的方向和指示对接装置进行移动的距离之后,处理器10可以控制上述对接装置1按照所得到的方向和距离进行移动,从而使上述对接装置1与上述对端装置2对接。
可以理解,相对于对接位置为使得其它光敏感器件(即除上述目标光敏感器件之外的光敏感器件)接收到上述对端装置发射的激光的位置的方案,本可选的实现方式可以减少计算资源的消耗,降低计算的复杂程度。
可选的,对接位置也可以为使得其它光敏感器件(即除上述目标光敏感器件之外的光敏感器件)接收到上述对端装置发射的激光的位置。由此,处理器10可以根据预先存储的、目标光敏感器件12与上述对接位置之间的位置偏移,以及目标光敏感器件12与收到激光的光敏感器件13之间的位置偏移,计算出收到激光的光敏感器件13与对接位置之间的位置偏移(包括指示对接装置进行移动的方向和指示对接装置进行移动的距离)。之后,处理器10可以控制上述对接装置1按照计算得到的位置偏移所包括的方向和距离进行移动,从而使上述对接装置1与上述对端装置2对接。
在本实施例中,上述多个光敏感器件的排布方式可以是任意的。例如,可以根据光敏感器件的安装位置的形状、结构,来设置上述多个光敏感器件的排布方式。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,上述多个光敏感器件呈阵列式排布。例如图1的示例中,多个光敏感器件呈矩形阵列式排布。
应该理解,当多个光敏感器件呈阵列式排布时,相邻光敏感器件之间的距离相等,光敏感器件分布均匀。这样,处理器仅需存储少数光敏感器件的位置信息以及光敏感之间的间距信息,即可根据阵列式的排布确定出所有光敏感器件的位置进而实现位置偏移的快速计算。
可选的,当光敏感器件的安装面并非平面时,也可以随机地或按照预先设定的规则规律地在上述非平面的安装面排布多个光敏感器件。作为示例请参考图3,如图3所示,多个光敏感器件在曲面上排布。
在本实施例中,目标光敏感器件12可以是上述多个光敏感器件中的任意一个光敏感器件。换言之,该目标光敏感器件12可以位于上述多个光敏感器件中的任意一个光敏感器件所在的位置。在实践中,可以选择对接装置和与对接装置对接的对端装置成功对接时成功接收到对端装置的激光发射器发出的激光的光敏感器件作为目标光敏感器件。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,上述目标光敏感器件位于由上述多个光敏感器件排布形成的阵列的中心。
可以理解,当多个光敏感器件呈阵列式排布,目标光敏感器件位于由上述多个光敏感器件排布形成的阵列的中心,并且,目标光敏感器件接收到激光的情况下为成功对接状态时,有助于通过移动更短的距离实现对接。
具体地,如果将目标光敏感器件设置于多个光敏感器件排布形成的阵列的中心,那么,多个光敏感器件中除目标光敏感器件之外的其他的光敏感器件到该目标光敏感器件之间的距离之和,通常小于将目标光敏感器件设置于多个光敏感器件排布形成的阵列的非中心位置的情况下,多个光敏感器件中除目标光敏感器件之外的其他的光敏感器件到该目标光敏感器件之间的距离之和。可见,将目标光敏感器件设置于多个光敏感器件排布形成的阵列的中心,则多个光敏感器件中的每个光敏感器件与目标光敏感器件之间的平均距离小于将目标光敏感器件设置于多个光敏感器件排布形成的阵列的非中心位置的情况下的每个光敏感器件与目标光敏感器件之间的平均距离。由此,有助于通 过移动更短的距离实现对接。
在这里,上述处理器10可以通过多种方式,从上述多个光敏感器件中确定接收到激光的光敏感器件。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,上述处理器通过如下方式从上述多个光敏感器件中确定接收到激光的光敏感器件:
从上述多个光敏感器件中确定两端的电压大于等于预设电压阈值的光敏感器件,作为接收到激光的光敏感器件。
具体地,示例性的,在下面所描述的情况下:多个光敏感器件呈阵列式排布。目标光敏感器件位于由多个光敏感器件排布形成的阵列的中心(目标光敏感器件的位置可以记作(i,j))。多个光敏感器件排布形成的阵列的行包括2i-1个光敏感器件(i为正整数),列包括2j-1个光敏感器件(j为正整数)。多个光敏感器件中的每个光敏器件的大小、型号、参数等属性相同。当处理器测量光敏感器件两端的电压时,可以采用导线与该光敏感器件连通,断开与除该光敏感器件之外的其他光敏感器件之间的导线连通(示例性的,可以通过开关控制电路的断开与连通)。导通电路中除光敏感器件之外的总电阻为R1,并且,电源电压为VDD。
光敏感器件未接收到激光照射时,电阻R很大,R远大于R1,此时,光敏感器件两端的电压V为:V=VDD*R1/(R+R1),即,此时电压约等于0;
光敏感器件接收到激光照射时,电阻R很小,此时,光敏感器件两端的电压V为:V=VDD。
应该理解,上述预设电压阈值的取值应为(0,VDD]之间的,可以区分光敏感器件是否接受到激光照射的数值。
需要说明的是,上述从多个光敏感器件中确定接收到激光的光敏感器件的方法仅仅是示例性的,根据实现需要,可以采用与上述方法等同的其他方式,从多个光敏感器件中确定接收到激光的光敏感器件。并且,本领域的技术人员所采用的与上述方法等同的其他方式均应属于本公开的实施例所要求保护的范围之内。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,上述对端装置响应于确定 上述对接装置与上述对端装置成功对接,停止发射激光,以及响应于确定上述对接装置与上述对端装置未对接,发射激光;或者,上述处理器还响应于确定上述对接装置与上述对端装置成功对接,控制上述对端装置暂停发射激光,以及响应于确定上述对接装置与上述对端装置未对接,控制上述对端装置发射激光。
在这里,当上述对接装置移动到由上述目标光敏感器件标定的对接位置时,上述对接装置与上述对端装置成功对接。
可以理解,由于激光用于确定对接装置是否与对端装置成功对接,因而,在上述对接装置与上述对端装置成功对接时,则无需发射激光。而当未对接时,则开始发射激光。激光的发射和关闭可以由对端装置控制,也可以由对接装置上的处理器控制。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,上述对端装置上设置有控制激光发射的开关,上述开关在上述对端装置与上述对接装置成功对接时断开,以暂停发射激光,上述开关在上述对端装置与上述对接装置未对接时闭合,以发射激光。
可以理解,当对端装置与对接装置由未对接状态转换为成功对接状态时,可以触发开关断开;当对端装置与对接装置由成功对接状态转换为未对接状态时,可以触发开关闭合,从而控制激光发射。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,上述对接装置还包括激光雷达定位系统。其中:上述处理器10还根据上述激光雷达定位系统确定的上述对接装置与上述对端装置的相对位置,控制上述对接装置移动至使上述多个光敏感器件中的光敏感器件接收到上述对端装置发射的激光的位置。
可以理解,现有技术中,激光雷达定位系统可以粗略地确定出上述对接装置与上述对端装置的相对位置,然而,激光雷达定位系统所确定的相对位置的精度往往无法实现对接装置和对端装置之间精准对接位置的探测,因而无法通过激光雷达定位系统使对接装置和对端装置在精准的对接位置实现电气连接。本可选的实现方式可以首先通过激光雷达定位系统的定位,控制上述对接装置移动至使上述多个光敏感器件中的光敏感器件可接收到上述对端装置发射的激光的位置,然 后,再根据接收到激光的光敏感器件与目标光敏感器件之间的位置偏移,控制对接装置移动到由目标光敏感器件标定的对接位置,以使上述对接装置与上述对端装置对接。由此,避免了由于多个光敏感器件排布的面积过小、激光无法照射到光敏感器件,而导致的无法定位的问题。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,光敏感器件为光敏电阻或光敏二极管。
应该理解,通常,光敏感器件越小,光敏感器件之间的距离越近,可以实现越高精度的对接。例如,当光敏感器件的长宽高均为1毫米时,可以使得对接精度达到1毫米。
本公开的上述实施例中的对接装置通过确定多个光敏感器件中接收到激光的光敏感器件,与目标光敏感器件之间的位置偏移,实现对接装置与对端装置对接,从而提高了对接装置与对端装置对接的精度。
本公开的实施例还提供了一种移动机器人。进一步参考图4A和图4B。
图4A是根据本公开的移动机器人的结构示意图,该移动机器人可以包括前述实施例中所描述的对接装置。如图4A所示的移动机器人包括处理器10和与处理器10电连接的多个光敏感器件11。
图4B为针对图4A的移动机器的俯视图。该移动机器人的上侧设置有多个光敏感器件。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,上述移动机器人所包括的对接装置可以作为可移动的、用于承载物品或其他装置的底盘。与对接装置进行的对端装置可以为储物装置(例如餐车、送货车)。其中,储物装置可以例如容纳药物、货物、餐盘等各种物体。上述底盘和上述储物装置可以构成可分离、可移动的送货设备。
作为示例,请参考图5,图5是与本公开的移动机器人进行对接的对端装置的示例性的应用场景的示意图。
如图5所示的与对接装置进行对接的对端装置包括激光发射器21。在一些情况下,对接装置可以是送餐机器人的底盘,与对接装置对接的对端装置可以是餐车。在此应用场景下,既可以实现餐车与底 盘相分离,提高运餐效率,又可以提高餐车与底盘之间的对接精度,有助于实现餐车与底盘之间的电气连接。
请继续参考图6,根据本公开的对接装置的对接方法的一个实施例的流程600。其中,上述对接装置包括多个光敏感器件。该对接装置的对接方法,包括以下步骤:
步骤601,从上述多个光敏感器件中确定接收到激光的光敏感器件。
在本实施例中,对接装置的对接方法的执行主体(例如图1所示的处理器)可以从上述多个光敏感器件中确定接收到激光的光敏感器件。其中,上述激光由与上述对接装置进行对接的对端装置发射。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,上述执行主体可以采用如下方式执行上述步骤601:
从上述多个光敏感器件中确定两端的电压大于等于预设电压阈值的光敏感器件,作为接收到激光的光敏感器件。
具体地,示例性的,在下面所描述的情况下:多个光敏感器件呈阵列式排布。目标光敏感器件位于由多个光敏感器件排布形成的阵列的中心(目标光敏感器件的位置可以记作(i,j))。多个光敏感器件排布形成的阵列的行包括2i+1个光敏感器件(i为自然数),列包括2j+1个光敏感器件(j为自然数)。多个光敏感器件中的每个光敏器件的大小、型号、参数等属性相同。当处理器测量光敏感器件两端的电压时,可以采用导线与该光敏感器件连通,断开与除该光敏感器件之外的其他光敏感器件之间的导线连通(示例性的,可以通过开关控制电路的断开与连通)。导通电路中除光敏感器件之外的总电阻为R1,并且,电源电压为VDD。
光敏感器件未接收到激光照射时,电阻R很大,R远大于R1,此时,光敏感器件两端的电压V为:V=VDD*R1/(R+R1),即,此时电压约等于0;
光敏感器件接收到激光照射时,电阻R很小,此时,光敏感器件两端的电压V为:V=VDD。
应该理解,上述预设电压阈值的取值应为(0,VDD]之间的,可 以区分光敏感器件是否接受到激光照射的数值。
需要说明的是,上述从多个光敏感器件中确定接收到激光的光敏感器件的方法仅仅是示例性的,根据实现需要,可以采用与上述方法等同的其他方式,从多个光敏感器件中确定接收到激光的光敏感器件。并且,本领域的技术人员所采用的与上述方法等同的其他方式均应属于本公开的实施例所要求保护的范围之内。
步骤602,根据上述接收到激光的光敏感器件与目标光敏感器件之间的位置偏移,控制上述对接装置移动到由上述目标光敏感器件标定的对接位置,以使上述对接装置与上述对端装置对接。
在本实施例中,上述执行主体可以根据上述接收到激光的光敏感器件与目标光敏感器件之间的位置偏移,控制上述对接装置移动到由上述目标光敏感器件标定的对接位置,以使上述对接装置与上述对端装置对接。
在本实施例中,目标光敏感器件可以是上述多个光敏感器件中的任意一个光敏感器件。换言之,该目标光敏感器件可以位于上述多个光敏感器件中的任意一个光敏感器件所在的位置。在实践中,可以选择对接装置和与对接装置对接的对端装置成功对接时成功接收到对端装置的激光发射器发出的激光的光敏感器件作为目标光敏感器件。
可以理解,在本实施例中,上述对接位置可以由目标光敏感器件标定。
在本实施例的一些可选的实现方式中,上述对接位置为上述目标光敏感器件接收到上述对端装置发射的激光的位置。
当上述对接位置为上述目标光敏感器件接收到上述对端装置发射的激光的位置时,指示对接装置进行移动的距离即为收到激光的光敏感器件与目标光敏感器件之间的距离,指示对接装置进行移动的方向即为:以目标光敏感器件所在的位置为起点、以收到激光的光敏感器件所在的位置为终点的方向。由此,在得到指示对接装置进行移动的方向和指示对接装置进行移动的距离之后,处理器可以控制上述对接装置按照所得到的方向和距离进行移动,从而使上述对接装置与上述对端装置对接。
可以理解,相对于对接位置为使得其它光敏感器件(即除上述目标光敏感器件之外的光敏感器件)接收到上述对端装置发射的激光的位置的方案,在本可选的实现方式可以减少计算资源的消耗,提高对接精度。
可选的,对接位置也可以为使得其它光敏感器件(即除上述目标光敏感器件之外的光敏感器件)接收到上述对端装置发射的激光的位置。由此,处理器可以根据预先存储的、目标光敏感器件与上述对接位置之间的位置偏移,以及目标光敏感器件与收到激光的光敏感器件之间的位置偏移,计算出收到激光的光敏感器件与对接位置之间的位置偏移(包括指示对接装置进行移动的方向和指示对接装置进行移动的距离)。之后,处理器可以控制上述对接装置按照计算得到的位置偏移所包括的方向和距离进行移动,从而使上述对接装置与上述对端装置对接。
本公开的上述实施例提供的方法,通过从上述多个光敏感器件中确定接收到激光的光敏感器件,其中,上述激光由与上述对接装置进行对接的对端装置发射,然后,根据上述接收到激光的光敏感器件与目标光敏感器件之间的位置偏移,控制上述对接装置移动到由上述目标光敏感器件标定的对接位置,以使上述对接装置与上述对端装置对接,提高了对接装置与对端装置的对接精度。
