- 适合建筑检测、维护等高精度爬墙机器人应用。
本文针对四轮独立转向四轮独立驱动(4WIS4WID)爬墙移动机器人,设计了一种基于多模态测量融合的姿态估计算法,整合轮式里程计、视觉里程计与惯性测量单元(IMU)数据,采用扩展卡尔曼滤波(EKF)与无迹卡尔曼滤波(UKF)进行状态估计。由于建筑立面几何复杂且材料特性多样,传统激光、超声或雷达等定位传感器难以适用;同时,受钢筋混凝土屏蔽与电磁干扰影响,GPS在该类环境中通常不可靠。因此,机器人里程计成为主要的速度与位置信息来源,但易受系统性与非系统性误差导致的漂移影响。本文采用非线性优化及Levenberg-Marquardt方法(基于牛顿-高斯与梯度的模型拟合),结合遗传算法与粒子群优化(随机优化方法)对机器人运动学参数进行标定。实验在原型爬墙机器人上验证了不同标定方法与姿态估计算法的性能与效果。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
This paper presents the design of a pose estimator for a four wheel independent steer four wheel independent drive (4WIS4WID) wall climbing mobile robot, based on the fusion of multimodal measurements, including wheel odometry, visual odometry, and an inertial measurement unit (IMU) data using Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) and Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF). The pose estimator is a critical component of wall climbing mobile robots, as their operational environment involves carrying precise measurement equipment and maintenance tools in construction, requiring information about pose on the building at the time of measurement. Due to the complex geometry and material properties of building facades, the use of traditional localization sensors such as laser, ultrasonic, or radar is often infeasible for wall-climbing robots. Moreover, GPS-based localization is generally unreliable in these environments because of signal degradation caused by reinforced concrete and electromagnetic interference. Consequently, robot odometry remains the primary source of velocity and position information, despite being susceptible to drift caused by both systematic and non-systematic errors. The calibrations of the robot's systematic parameters were conducted using nonlinear optimization and Levenberg-Marquardt methods as Newton-Gauss and gradient-based model fitting methods, while Genetic algorithm and Particle swarm were used as stochastic-based methods for kinematic parameter calibration. Performance and results of the calibration methods and pose estimators were validated in detail with experiments on the experimental mobile wall climbing robot.
