通过视觉感知实现草莓采摘机器人故障自诊断与自动修复

Strawberry-harvesting robots faced challenges such as poor visual perception, gripper misalignment, empty grasp/misgrasp, and slippage, which reduced harvesting stability and efficiency.To overcome these issues, this paper proposes a visual fault diagnosis and self-recovery framework. An end-to-end SRR-Net achieved unified perception and fault diagnosis through joint detection, segmentation, and ripeness regression of the fruit and gripper. Leveraging this integrated perception, a relative error compensation method driven by simultaneous target-gripper detection was designed to correct positional misalignments exceeding the tolerance threshold. A micro-optical camera integrated within the end-effector delivered real-time visual feedback. Based on the micro-optical camera, a MobileNet V3-Small classifier was utilized for grasp adjustment during the deflating stage, enabling the early abort of the harvesting cycle in cases of empty grasp/misgrasps. Furthermore, a time-series LSTM classifier was applied during the snap-off stage to predict strawberry slippage. Based on these predictions, the system executed re-inflation and a secondary snap-off attempt for slipping strawberries, or aborted the cycle for slipped strawberries. Experiments demonstrated that the mean absolute errors between the end-effector and the picking point were reduced to 3.12 mm and 4.06 mm from 11.50 mm and 5.25 mm along the x- and y-axes, respectively, at the cost of a time increment of 0.64 $pm$ 0.24 s. The grasp adjustment module reduced the grasping phase by approximately 0.5 s and avoided empty-placement for failure cases. The strawberry slip prediction module handled slipped cases with an 88.89% success rate, saving approximately 4.00 s per harvesting cycle for failure cases. Also, it achieved an 81.25% recovery rate for slipping strawberries, requiring additional 0.63 s for re-grasping.
