Fig. 3 shows an implementation flow of the automatic charging method for the robot according to the embodiment of the present invention, which is detailed as follows:
in S301, a first ceiling image is captured by the camera while the robot is in a first position docked with its external charging device.
In this embodiment, the docking of the robot with the external charging device refers to that the robot is located at a position where the external charging device can complete a charging operation, and includes a case where the robot and the external charging device are precisely docked through a physical interface to complete charging, or a case where the robot approaches the external charging device to complete charging in a wireless manner.
When the robot is in butt joint with an external charging device, a camera installed in the robot body is used for collecting a ceiling image right above the robot body. It should be noted that, after the robot leaves the external charging device, if the position of the external charging device is changed, the robot needs to be docked with the external charging device again, and the ceiling image is taken again in the docked state, so as to achieve relocation of the charging device, otherwise, when the robot needs to be recharged after working, the robot cannot be accurately located to the external charging device.
In S302, feature point extraction is performed on the first ceiling image, a first world coordinate of the feature point is calculated, and a second world coordinate of the first position is calculated according to the first world coordinate.
The characteristic points of the image are extracted, and the corner points obtained by detection are filtered in different regions by adopting an ORB method based on Fast corners so as to ensure that the extracted characteristic points are moderate in quantity and uniformly distributed in space.
In this embodiment, before S302, the robot may continuously capture images of the ceiling by using a camera during the movement process, extract feature points from each image, respectively, and shoot the feature points through different displacements and different viewing angles generated by the movement of the robot, so as to calculate world coordinates of the feature points and establish a ceiling map. The map construction process can be obtained by adopting an EKF-SLAM method.
In the process of constructing the map by using the EKF-SLAM method, because a monocular camera is configured in the robot under most conditions, only the position information of the characteristic point can be obtained, and the depth information cannot be obtained, an inverse depth parameterized model can be used

Respectively representing the azimuth angle and the elevation angle between the characteristic point and the optical center of the camera under the world coordinate system, rhoiRepresenting the reciprocal of the distance between the feature point and the optical center of the camera. In the SLAM process, the characteristic points are continuously shot through different displacements and different visual angles generated by the motion of the robot, so that the model parameters of the characteristic points can be continuously corrected through the EKF, and the accurate depth value d is finally obtainedi=1/ρi. The specific map construction process is not described herein again.
After extracting the feature points from the first ceiling image, matching the extracted feature points with the constructed map, and acquiring world coordinates of the feature points, as shown in fig. 4, recording coordinates of the feature points in the image as the coordinates, which are distances and angles from the feature points to the center of the image in the image coordinate system, respectively, according to the world coordinates of the feature points, the world coordinates of the first position where the robot is located are
Figure BDA0000712315690000054
Wherein G isr、GθThe actual distance and the angle from the characteristic point to the optical center of the camera under the world coordinate system are respectively, and f is the focal length of the camera. Here, since GθUnknown, therefore, it is necessary to take a plurality of feature points and calculate their G's respectivelyrThen, the center of the circle is taken as the mark, the radius of the circle is taken as the circle, and the intersection point of the circles is the world coordinate of the robot.
Because the calculation process has errors, circles made by the characteristic points cannot accurately intersect with one point, and therefore, the intersection point can be obtained by adopting a least square solution.
In S303, a second ceiling image is captured by the camera when the robot triggers a charging task at a second location.
In this embodiment, before the second ceiling image is captured by the camera, the charging task may be triggered by any of the following conditions:
1. and triggering the charging task when the battery capacity of the robot is reduced to a preset threshold value.
In the process of executing tasks by the robot, the system monitors the battery power in real time, once the battery power is reduced to a certain low power threshold, for example, when the remaining power is only 10%, the charging task is triggered, the robot suspends the execution of the current task, the priority of the charging process is improved, and the charging task is preferentially executed, so that the phenomenon that the robot stops working due to insufficient power is avoided.
2. And triggering the charging task after the target task of the robot is executed.
For the robot, the target task may include a task currently being executed, and after the robot executes the target task, even if the electric quantity is surplus, the robot may trigger a charging task because no task needs to be executed currently, so as to ensure the sufficiency of the electric quantity at any time.
Once the robot has triggered the charging task, an image of the ceiling above the current position of the robot (i.e. the second position) is captured by the camera.
In S304, feature point extraction is performed on the second ceiling image, third world coordinates of the feature point are obtained, and fourth world coordinates of the second position are calculated according to the third world coordinates.
After the second ceiling image is acquired, according to the method described in S302, third world coordinates of the feature points extracted from the second ceiling image are acquired, and fourth world coordinates of the second position are calculated from the third world coordinates to locate the current position of the robot.
In S305, the robot calculates a path from the fourth world coordinate to the second world coordinate, and moves to the first position according to the path to perform charging.
Through the steps, the robot acquires the fourth world coordinate of the current position of the robot, and according to the fourth world coordinate and the second world coordinate of the position acquired before, the robot background can calculate the path from the current position to the charging position, so that the robot moves to the first position of the charging position to perform charging operation.
After the charging is completed, the robot may also move from the first position to the second position according to the path calculated in S305, continue working or wait for the assignment of tasks, to ensure the consistency of the robot task execution.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the camera used for shooting the ceiling image is configured in the robot body, and the position of the external charging device and the real-time position of the robot are positioned through the shot ceiling image, so that the robot can accurately move to the charging position to complete charging, and the execution efficiency of the charging operation of the robot is improved.

S504, extracting the characteristic points of the second ceiling image, and acquiring third world coordinates of the characteristic points.
S505, searching the third ceiling plate image matched with the second ceiling plate image.
S506, according to the stored content, the world coordinates of the feature points of the third ceiling image matched with the second ceiling image are obtained.
Based on the stored content in S503, when the robot triggers a charging task, the ceiling image of the current position of the robot is image-matched with the ceiling image captured in S501, and after a consistent image is obtained, the world coordinates of the feature points in the image are directly extracted for robot positioning.
In the embodiment, after the second ceiling image is obtained by shooting, the world coordinates of the feature points are directly determined through image matching without calculating the world coordinates of the feature points, so that the background processing efficiency of the robot is improved.
Further, as an embodiment of the present invention, in the robot system, a primary coil is installed on the external charging device, and a secondary coil is installed on the robot, and in S305, when the robot moves to the first position according to the calculated path, the robot receives energy transmitted from the external charging device through electromagnetic induction, and completes charging of the robot, and the charging principle is as shown in fig. 6.
