摘要: To address the practical navigation issues of rubber-tapping robots, this paper proposes an active navigation system guided by trunk detection for a rubber-tapping robot. A tightly coupled sliding-window-based factor graph method is proposed for pose tracking, which introduces normal distribution transform (NDT) measurement factors, inertial measurement unit (IMU) pre-integration factors, and prior factors generated by sliding window marginalization. To actively pursue goals in navigation, a distance-adaptive Euclidean clustering method is utilized in conjunction with cylinder fitting and composite criteria screening to identify tree trunks. Additionally, a hybrid map navigation approach involving 3D point cloud map localization and 2D grid map planning is proposed to apply these methods to the robot. Experiments show that our pose-tracking approach obtains generally better performance in accuracy and robustness compared to existing methods. The precision of our trunk detection method is 93% and the recall is 87%. A practical validation is completed in robot rubber-tapping tasks of a real rubber plantation. The proposed method can guide the rubber-tapping robot in complex forest environments and improve efficiency.
