It will be further understood that terms, such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries, should be interpreted as having a meaning that is consistent with their meaning in the context of the prior art and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless expressly so defined herein.
Fig. 1 is a schematic operation process diagram of a cross-regional automatic walking device control method according to the present application. Before the cross-regional walking is executed, the method needs to firstly drive automatic walking equipment to respectively walk along each mutually independent working region for a circle by a user to obtain, calibrate and record map information of each working region; or in other modes, before the user walks across the regions, the user directly marks the map information of each working region corresponding to the automatic walking equipment through various electronic maps such as Google or the like or the image processing unit automatically calculates and acquires the map information of each working region corresponding to the automatic walking equipment.
After the map information of each working area of the automatic walking equipment is obtained, the map information can be correspondingly stored so as to respectively plan internal traversal paths for each working area and correspondingly drive the automatic walking equipment to operate in each working area to correspondingly operate.
In order to automatically realize the cross-region walking, at least one cross-region walking path is set between different working regions through various modes such as manual selection or automatic calculation. Therefore, when the automatic walking equipment needs to switch the working areas, the cross-region walking path connecting the current working area of the automatic walking equipment and the target working area can be automatically called, the automatic walking equipment is driven to run along the corresponding path according to the cross-region walking path, and automatic switching between different working areas is realized.
Referring to fig. 2, in order to implement the above functions, various functional units shown in fig. 2 need to be arranged inside an automatic walking device system such as an intelligent mowing robot, and the like, including:
the device comprises a walking unit, an operation unit, a control unit, a positioning unit, a storage unit and a path planning unit.
The walking unit is connected with the control unit, and the rotating speed of the walking motor is correspondingly adjusted under the control of instructions of the control unit so as to drive the walking wheels to drive the automatic walking equipment to walk.
The positioning unit can be realized by various positioning modes such as an RTK module, a UWB positioning module, a GNSS positioning module, an inertial navigation positioning module and the like, and is used for acquiring real-time position information of the automatic walking equipment and realizing the operation of the running position of the automatic walking equipment.
The storage unit is used for storing map information corresponding to each working area of the automatic walking equipment. The map information of each work area may be stored in advance in the following manner: one way is that a user controls automatic walking equipment such as an intelligent mower to walk for one circle along the boundary of a working area, the map information of each point passing through the boundary is correspondingly acquired in the process of walking for one circle, and map coordinates corresponding to each position on the boundary are extracted, so that regional map information is generated by an algorithm according to corresponding map coordinate fitting; the second way is: map information of a work area corresponding to automatic walking equipment such as an intelligent mower is directly drawn from an electronic map such as Google or is automatically calculated and generated.
The path planning unit is connected with the storage unit so as to correspondingly call the map information of the working area corresponding to the automatic walking equipment from the storage unit, thereby automatically planning the traversal operation path of the automatic walking equipment in each working area according to a preset algorithm and automatically planning the cross-area walking path of the automatic walking equipment between two adjacent working areas according to the preset algorithm. The path planning unit can also store the map information corresponding to the planned traversal operation path and the map information corresponding to the trans-regional walking path in the storage unit, so that the automatic walking equipment can be automatically called when needed.
The control unit is respectively connected with the walking units, the cutting unit, the positioning unit and the storage unit, and is used for correspondingly outputting control signals according to the received positioning information of the positioning unit, the map information of the traversing operation path and the map information of the cross-region walking path in the storage unit, controlling the walking units to drive the automatic walking equipment to walk according to the set walking path, and correspondingly controlling the operation units such as the mowing device and the like to execute corresponding working modes in the process.
Wherein, the operation unit can correspond to the operation demand of mowing and corresponding the setting to include: the lawn mower comprises a lawn mower disc, a lawn mowing motor and a driving circuit. The operation unit with the mowing function can be set to two working modes, wherein one mode is a normal mowing mode and is used for driving the mowing motor to normally drive the mowing cutter head to rotate to realize mowing operation in the process that the automatic walking equipment traverses an operation path; the second mode is a cross-region walking mode, which is used for keeping the mowing motor to stop rotating in the process that the automatic walking equipment executes a cross-region walking path so as to avoid damaging the ground among different working regions or avoiding accidentally damaging obstacles among different working regions.
In other implementation manners, the setting of the trans-regional walking path between different working areas can be specifically realized through any of the following manners:
in the first mode, two boundary points which are respectively positioned on the boundary line of two working areas can be selected according to the map information of the working areas, the boundary points are connected, the map information of the connecting line between the two boundary points is recorded, and a linear cross-area walking path is generated;
in a second mode, a setting signal of a user for a cross-regional walking path can be received, path nodes corresponding to the cross-regional walking path are obtained according to the setting signal, map information of connecting lines among the path nodes is recorded, and the cross-regional walking path is generated;
in a third mode, whether an impassable region exists between the working regions can be judged, when the impassable region exists, a path node corresponding to the cross-region walking path is obtained according to the path setting signal, and the map information of the connection line between the path nodes is recorded to generate the cross-region walking path; and when no region which can not pass exists between the regions, directly selecting two boundary points which are respectively positioned on the boundary lines of the two working regions, connecting the boundary points in a straight line or a curve or any form, and recording map information of a connecting line between the two boundary points to generate the cross-region walking path.
In each of the above manners, in order to further shorten the length of the cross-region traveling path, when selecting the boundary point, the path length between the two boundary points may be shortened as much as possible by selecting the two boundary points located closest to each other on the boundary line of the two working areas. Under the condition that the road condition between the working areas allows, the two boundary points which are closest to each other in different working areas can be directly and linearly connected, the map information of the connection line between the two boundary points is recorded, and the shortest path is automatically generated.
The setting signal of the user for the cross-region walking path received in the second mode includes:
driving a control signal for the cross-regional operation of the automatic walking equipment, or selecting a control signal for a cross-regional walking path on a map;
corresponding to the setting signals of the types, the path node corresponding to the cross-region walking path acquired in the second manner may include: starting points and end points corresponding to the cross-region walking path and turning positions in the cross-region walking path; or, each corresponding position point on the cross-region walking path can be obtained according to a preset period, and the cross-region walking path is correspondingly generated by fitting a connecting line between the position points.
The connections between the path nodes should not be limited to any particular form. The setting of the cross-region walking path can be realized by straight line connecting lines among all path nodes, curve connecting lines among all path nodes, or the combination of all the connecting modes.
Thus, in some more specific implementations, the automatic walking device of the present application can operate according to the following steps by setting the control unit thereof:
s1, storing the map corresponding to each working area in a storage unit of the automatic walking equipment, determining the specific working area in which the equipment is located according to the positioning information of the equipment, calling the map corresponding to the working area correspondingly, and driving the automatic walking equipment to traverse and operate in the working area according to the planned operation path through the position information and the path planning information included in the map of the working area;
and S2, when the traversing operation is completed in the preset working area and the working area needs to be replaced, switching the automatic walking equipment to a cross-area walking mode, correspondingly controlling the automatic walking equipment to transfer from one working area to another independent working area according to a cross-area walking path between the corresponding working areas in the mode, and simultaneously keeping the operation unit to stop operating on the way that the automatic walking equipment runs along the cross-area walking path and in a stop state in the cross-area walking process in order to avoid the damage of the ground or accidents of the operation unit.
The path planning for the cross-region walking path in step S2 can be implemented in any of the following manners.
The method I comprises the following steps of specifying an inter-region walking path:
the specific mode comprises the following steps: sending a walking path learning command through a mobile phone APP or a remote controller; the automatic walking equipment is controlled to walk along the appointed path through the mobile phone APP or the remote control machine, the position information corresponding to the automatic walking equipment is recorded at each characteristic point corresponding to the starting point, the turning point and the terminal point of the path in the walking process, and finally the inter-area walking path is generated.
Therefore, after mowing in the first working area in fig. 1, the automatic walking device can firstly walk to a position point on the first working area corresponding to the trans-regional walking path, then walk according to the path according to the positioning signal to reach other working areas, and correspondingly call the map of the new working area in the other working areas, so as to normally perform mowing operation and traversal process.
During the period, if the machine detects that the automatic walking equipment deviates from the cross-region walking path and exceeds a set range through various modes such as RTK (real-time kinematic) and inertial navigation calculation positioning, stopping and triggering alarm; otherwise, if only the automatic walking equipment is detected to deviate from the cross-region walking path but not exceed the set range, the heading can be automatically calibrated by triggering the automatic walking equipment to turn and return to the cross-region walking path. If no RTK positioning exists on the path, the inertial navigation device is used for continuing to advance, and if the RTK cannot be effectively positioned after a certain time, the positioning unit of the automatic walking device is judged to be invalid. At this point, further shutdown and alarm triggering may be performed to avoid accidents.
In the second mode, no non-accessible region exists between different working regions, and the working regions can pass through freely
When the automatic walking equipment needs to run from the first working area to the second working area in fig. 1, two working areas are found by calling map information, the boundary point with the nearest distance between the two areas can be selected at will under the condition that the two areas can pass by any route, the starting point on the boundary of the first working area and the end point on the boundary of the second working area are obtained, and the two areas are connected in a straight line to form a cross-area walking path. When the cross-region movement is executed, the automatic walking equipment can be correspondingly driven to autonomously run to the starting point of the boundary of the first working region and then move to the end point of the boundary of the second working region along a straight line.
In the process, if the automatic walking device encounters an obstacle or a situation that the automatic walking device cannot pass through the shortest path connected in a straight line, for example, an accurate positioning signal cannot be obtained, the control unit may be triggered to control the automatic walking device to return to the first working area first, and then other routes are selected randomly, for example, a cross-region walking path with the farthest distance is selected for trying. If the automatic walking equipment still cannot pass through the target work area after the attempt, other cross-area walking paths between the work area where the automatic walking equipment is located and the target work area before cross-area walking can be called again, for example, a path with a middle distance is selected, the direction of the automatic walking equipment is driven to be adjusted, and the automatic walking equipment is driven to run along the newly called cross-area walking path.
The selection of the planning mode of the walking path between the two areas can be selected by the user according to the actual situation. For example, when the user observes that there is an area that cannot be walked between two areas, the first method may be preferred for path planning, and when the user observes that there is no area that cannot be walked between two areas, the second method may be preferred for path planning.
Therefore, after the device automatically walks to the next working area, the specific working area where the device is located can be determined through the positioning information of the machine, so that the map corresponding to the working area is correspondingly called, and then the traversing operation work is continuously carried out in the working area according to the path planning information recorded in the map.
The cross-region walking scheme provided by the application can realize the following effects:
1. and judging whether an impassable area exists on the cross-region walking path through artificial observation, and adopting different path planning modes according to different conditions. Therefore, when the region which cannot pass exists, a cross-region walking path can be set in a designated mode; when there is no impassable area, a manner of automatically generating the shortest distance route may be employed. The technique of this patent can control automatic walking equipment such as intelligent lawn mower and walk to a plurality of mutually independent regions voluntarily, reduces the manpower and carries automatic walking equipment between different work areas to raise the efficiency. This application can make can keep sharing same basic station to fix a position or charge between a plurality of independent work area through crossing regional walking, and from this, this application only needs a location basic station in certain extent, can make the user arrange according to the place demand and reduce charging station hardware expenditure cost as far as.
2. When the automatic walking equipment moves across areas according to the appointed cross-area walking path, if the machine judges that the offset course of the positioning position of the machine exceeds the limited distance through RTK and/or inertial navigation calculation, the equipment can be set to automatically stop and alarm, otherwise, the heading can be automatically calibrated under the condition of small deviation. If there is an area on the path without the RTK positioning signal, the inertial navigation system can be used to continue the travel. If after a period of time of guidance is carried out through inertial navigation, an effective RTK signal can not be obtained after a certain period of time, and effective positioning can not be carried out, the automatic walking equipment can also be set to stop to give an alarm, so that the problem that the automatic walking equipment gets lost or is stuck is avoided. Therefore, the safety of cross-region walking of the automatic walking equipment can be improved.
3. In the automatic route planning mode, the shortest route can be automatically generated, an optimal cross-area walking route scheme can be formed according to different site conditions, meanwhile, through setting a plurality of alternative routes, when the automatic walking equipment meets emergency situations that a positioning signal is not good, an obstacle cannot pass through and the like, a proper alternative route can be selected, and the success rate and the safety of cross-area passing of the machine are improved.
The above are merely embodiments of the present application, and the description is specific and detailed, but not construed as limiting the scope of the present application. It should be noted that, for a person skilled in the art, several variations and modifications can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, which falls within the protection scope of the present application.
