Specifically, the distance between each second image area and the elevator door in the elevator image information is determined, for example, the distance between the center of the second image area and the elevator door, or the distance between one side of the second image area and the elevator door, specifically, the distance may be determined according to the actual situation, and the distance is not limited herein.
And S470, determining an angle between the second image area and the direction of the robot entering the elevator.
Specifically, the direction of the robot entering the elevator is determined first, then the angle between the second image area and the direction of the robot entering the elevator is determined, the smaller the angle is, the smaller the angle representing the required torsion when the robot enters the elevator is, and the easier the robot enters the second image area.
And S480, determining the area score of each elevator according to the distance, the angle and the area of the second image area.
Specifically, the smaller the distance between the second image area and the elevator door, the smaller the distance, the higher the distance score, and the higher the area score for the robot entering the second image area; the smaller the angle between the second image area and the direction of the robot entering the elevator is, the smaller the angle which indicates that the robot needs to twist, the easier the robot enters the second image area, the smaller the angle is, the higher the angle score is, and the higher the area score is; the larger the area of the second image area is, the larger the area is, the higher the area score is, and the higher the area score is, so that the area score is, for example, the sum of the distance score, the angle score and the area score, and the area score of each second image area in each elevator can be obtained, and the elevator which is most suitable for the robot to take can be determined according to the area score, so that the efficiency of the robot entering the elevator is improved.
For example, the distance, angle, and area may be ranked, and the score may be determined according to the ranking, for example, when the angle is equal to 0 °, the angle score is 10 points; when the angle is more than 0 DEG and less than or equal to 10 DEG, the angle score is 9 minutes; when the angle is more than 10 degrees and less than or equal to 20 degrees, the angle score is 8 minutes; when the angle is more than 20 degrees and less than or equal to 30 degrees, the angle score is 7 minutes; when the angle is more than 30 degrees and less than or equal to 40 degrees, the angle score is 6 minutes; when the angle is more than 40 degrees and less than or equal to 50 degrees, the angle score is 5 minutes; when the angle is more than 50 degrees and less than or equal to 60 degrees, the angle score is 4 minutes; when the angle is more than 60 degrees and less than or equal to 70 degrees, the angle score is 3 minutes; when the angle is more than 70 degrees and less than or equal to 80 degrees, the angle score is 2 minutes; when the angle is greater than 80 ° and equal to or less than 90 °, the angle score is 1 minute, thereby obtaining the angle score. Illustratively, to reduce the time for the robot to enter the elevator, the robot rotation angle will not be greater than 90 °, for example when the robot needs to rotate 100 ° clockwise, the robot will choose to rotate 80 ° counter-clockwise. The distance score, angle score, and area score may also be determined in other ways, and are not limited herein.
Optionally, a distance score between the second image area and the elevator door, a weighting coefficient of an angle score between the second image area and the direction of the robot entering the elevator and an area score of the second image area are set, and the area score is determined according to the distance score, the angle score and the weighting coefficient corresponding to each score.
Illustratively, the distance score is S1, and the weighting coefficient of the distance score is a; the angle score is S2, and the weighting coefficient of the angle score is b; the area score is S3, and the weighting coefficient of the area score is c, and the area score sc=a×s1+b×s2+c×s3. The weighting coefficient of each parameter score is determined according to the importance degree of each parameter, so that a more accurate and more fitting actual region score can be obtained, and the specific value of the weighting coefficient can be determined according to the actual situation, for example, according to the importance degree of each parameter.
S490, determining the elevator with the highest regional score as the elevator meeting the preset condition, and controlling the robot to enter the elevator.
On the basis of the above technical solution, optionally, the control method for the robot to enter the elevator further includes:
and determining the position of each elevator, and determining the area score of each elevator according to the position of each elevator, the position information of the second image area corresponding to each elevator and the area of the second image area.
Specifically, the position of the elevator includes a floor where the elevator is located and a direction in which the elevator runs, and the position score of the elevator can be determined according to the position of the elevator, so that the area score of each elevator can be determined according to the position of the elevator, the position information of the second image area corresponding to each elevator and the area of the second image area, and the area score is, for example, the sum of the position score of the elevator, the position information score of the second image area corresponding to each elevator and the area score of the second image area. For example, when the floor of the elevator is closer to the floor where the robot is located, the time for the robot to enter the elevator is smaller, the position score of the elevator is higher, when the running direction of the elevator coincides with the direction of the destination floor of the robot, the position score of the elevator is higher, and when the running direction of the elevator is opposite to the direction of the destination floor of the robot, the position score of the elevator is lower. For example, the robot is going from the third floor to the tenth floor, at which time the elevator No. 1 is on the second floor and the elevator No. 1 is running upwards; the number 2 elevator is five floors, and the number 2 elevator is running upwards, the position score of the number 1 elevator is higher than the position score of the number 2 elevator, and the position score of a specific elevator can be determined according to actual conditions, so that the position score of each elevator can be determined according to the position of each elevator. According to the position of the elevators, the position information of the second image area corresponding to each elevator and the area of the second image area, the area score of each elevator can be determined more accurately, so that the elevator which is more suitable for the robot to take is determined, and the efficiency of the robot to take the elevator is greatly improved.
Optionally, a weighting coefficient of the position of the elevator is set, and the area score is determined according to the distance score, the angle score, the area score, and the weighting coefficient corresponding to each score of the position score of the elevator.
Specifically, the distance score is S1, and the weighting coefficient of the distance score is a; the angle score is S2, and the weighting coefficient of the angle score is b; the area score is S3, the weight coefficient of the area score is c, the weight coefficient of the elevator position is d, and the elevator position score is S4, and the area score is sc=a×s1+b×s2+c×s3+d×s4.
