自主飞行机器人在现实场景中的应用日益广泛,而透明玻璃障碍物给可靠导航带来显著挑战。现有方法多依赖非接触传感器或被动抗接触设计,但普遍存在鲁棒性与效率不足的问题。本文提出一种新型方法,实现未知环境中带透明玻璃障碍物的鲁棒自主空中导航。系统首先利用视觉传感器增量式检测并维护潜在玻璃表面信息;随后,通过一对轻量化触觉感应模块主动接触视觉识别出的潜在玻璃表面,以确认或排除其存在;最后,将玻璃表面信息高效融入体素地图,并实时重规划安全航路以避开障碍物。我们在多种真实场景中进行了实验验证,结果表明该系统能有效支持复杂真实环境下无人机的高效、鲁棒自主导航。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Autonomous aerial robots are increasingly being deployed in real-world scenarios, where transparent glass obstacles present significant challenges to reliable navigation. Researchers have investigated the use of non-contact sensors and passive contact-resilient aerial vehicle designs to detect glass surfaces, which are often limited in terms of robustness and efficiency. In this work, we propose a novel approach for robust autonomous aerial navigation in unknown environments with transparent glass obstacles, combining the strengths of both sensor-based and contact-based glass detection. The proposed system begins with the incremental detection and information maintenance about potential glass surfaces using visual sensor measurements. The vehicle then actively engages in touch actions with the visually detected potential glass surfaces using a pair of lightweight contact-sensing modules to confirm or invalidate their presence. Following this, the volumetric map is efficiently updated with the glass surface information and safe trajectories are replanned on the fly to circumvent the glass obstacles. We validate the proposed system through real-world experiments in various scenarios, demonstrating its effectiveness in enabling efficient and robust autonomous aerial navigation in complex real-world environments with glass obstacles.
