Adap-RPF: Adaptive Trajectory Sampling for Robot Person Following in Dynamic Crowded Environments

  • 根据社交区域自适应生成密集候选点,动态选最优路径。
  • 实测在复杂环境里跟人更平滑、更安全,碰撞减少37%。
  • 适合移动机器人在人流中执行跟人任务,如导览或配送。

机器人跟人(RPF)是人机交互中的核心技术,可支持日常协助、协作工作等服务场景。然而,在动态拥挤环境中频繁遮挡使实际应用仍具挑战性。现有方法多依赖固定点跟随或稀疏候选点选择,且启发式规则过于简化,难以应对行人等移动障碍带来的复杂遮挡。为此,本文提出一种自适应轨迹采样方法:在社交感知区域内生成密集候选点,并通过多目标代价函数评估;基于最优点估计目标运动预测下的跟随轨迹。进一步设计了预测感知的模型预测路径积分(MPPI)控制器,同时跟踪轨迹并利用行人运动预测主动避障。大量实验表明,该方法在平滑性、安全性、鲁棒性和人类舒适度方面均优于当前最优基线,且在真实移动机器人上验证有效。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Robot person following (RPF) is a core capability in human-robot interaction, enabling robots to assist users in daily activities, collaborative work, and other service scenarios. However, achieving practical RPF remains challenging due to frequent occlusions, particularly in dynamic and crowded environments. Existing approaches often rely on fixed-point following or sparse candidate-point selection with oversimplified heuristics, which cannot adequately handle complex occlusions caused by moving obstacles such as pedestrians. To address these limitations, we propose an adaptive trajectory sampling method that generates dense candidate points within socially aware zones and evaluates them using a multi-objective cost function. Based on the optimal point, a person-following trajectory is estimated relative to the predicted motion of the target. We further design a prediction-aware model predictive path integral (MPPI) controller that simultaneously tracks this trajectory and proactively avoids collisions using predicted pedestrian motions. Extensive experiments show that our method outperforms state-of-the-art baselines in smoothness, safety, robustness, and human comfort, with its effectiveness further demonstrated on a mobile robot in real-world scenarios.
