S10: detecting a marker in a current scene.
The marker has identification information, where the identification information can be identified by the robot. In order to accurately and efficiently build a navigation map of large scene and highly similar environment, some special markers are placed at specific positions in the current scene in advance, and all the markers are sequentially numbered to form corresponding identification (ID) information. At the same time, a mapping mode of the robot is activated to detect the markers in the current scene. In this embodiment, the marker is detected through a visual sensor of the robot, for example, a camera. Compared with the prior art that directly performs mapping on the current scene through a device equipped with, for example, laser or visional sensors, the mapping method performs mapping based on the markers in the current scene, which is capable of effectively reducing the difficulty of loops and the number of false loops.
It should be noted that, in the present disclosure, the robot can be used to map the current scene, and a mapping mode is installed in the system of the robot. The functions of the mapping mode can be, as an example, the same as or similar to those in the prior art and can achieve the same or similar technical effects, which will not be repeated herein.
In this embodiment, the above-mentioned specific position can be a place lacking in texture, for example, the narrow and hidden toilet passage in a shopping mall, an empty and tall hall in an airport, and the like. The specific position can also be a scene with a similar environment, for example, the entrances of similar shops in a shopping mall, the places around escalators, or the entrances of the aisles or the places on the cabinets in a computer room with servers disposed in a similar manner.
In this embodiment, the above-mentioned marker is an object with the identification information. The identification information is an identification code or an identification signal, where the identification code includes a two-dimensional code, and the identification signals can be a WIFI signal, a Bluetooth signal, a UWB signal, or an RFID signal which is emitted through a signal emitter of the robot. As an example, different specific positions of the current scene can be deployed with only one kind of marker, for instance, deploying an object including a two-dimensional code as a marker at each specific position in the current scene; alternatively, deploying an object including a two-dimensional code as a marker at some specific positions in the current scene, while deploying an object emitting a WIFI signal, a Bluetooth signal, a UWB signal, and an RFID signal as a marker at other specific positions in the current scene, which is not limited in this embodiment. It should be noted that, it will be sufficient to set only one marker at one specific position in the current scene.
S200: detecting the current scene.
In this embodiment, in the case that the marker is the object with the two-dimensional code, one frame of image at the current specific position is obtained, where the frequency of obtaining the image can be 10 frames/second. In the case that the marker is the object emitting the identification signal, the identification signal is detected, where the detection frequency can be 1 time/second. As an example, the method to detect the marker can be the detection method in the prior art, and the same or similar technical effects can be achieved, which will not be repeated herein.
S201: determining whether there is a marker in the current scene.
In this embodiment, in the case that the marker is the object with the two-dimensional code, it is determined whether there is a marker in the obtained image at the current specific position; in the case that the marker is the object emmiting the identification signal, it is determined whether the identification signal can be detected. If no, step S202 is executed; otherwise, step S11 is executed.
S202: setting a times number variable to zero.
In this embodiment, after the times number (number of times) variable is set to zero, step S200 is re-executed.
S11: determining whether the detected marker meets a preset condition, and mapping the current scene based on the marker if the detected marker meets the preset condition.
In this embodiment, the preset condition includes at least one of a distance condition, a times number condition, and a time condition.
In which, the distance condition refers to that the distance between the marker and the robot is smaller than the distance threshold, and as an example, the distance threshold can be 2 meters.
In which, the times number condition refers to that the times number variable is greater than a times number threshold, where the times number variable refers to the number of times that the marker(s) meeting the distance condition are continuously detected, and as an example, the times number threshold can be 3.
In which, the time condition refers to that the time difference between the current loop release time after the times number condition is met and a last loop release time is greater than the time threshold, where the last loop release time caused by the marker is the time when the system of the robot releasing the loop to a laser or visual SLAM after meeting the distance condition, the times number condition and the time condition for the latest time. As an example, the time threshold can be 300 seconds, that is, the loop processing operation triggered by the marker is only responded once within 5 minutes so as to avoid the problem of frequent loops that causes the overload of the system of the robot and affects the quality of mapping, so that an environmental map of better quality can be built through the method, thereby providing a more accurate navigation and positioning service.
In this embodiment, the robot mapping method detects the marker with the identification information can be identified by the robot in the current scene, determines whether the detected marker meets the preset condition, and maps the current scene based on the marker if the detected marker meets the preset condition. Because the method is to detect the marker in the current scene and map the current scene, compared with the prior art that directly perform mapping on the current scene through a device equipped with, for example, laser or visional sensors, it is capable of effectively reducing the difficulty of loops and the number of false loops. At the same time, because the above-mentioned method performs the loop processing after the detected marker meets the preset condition so as to map the current scene, which can effectively avoid the problem of frequent loops that causes the overload of the system of the robot and affects the quality of mapping, so that an environmental map of better quality can be built through the method, thereby providing a more accurate navigation and positioning service.

S303: identifying the identification (ID) information of the marker, and retrieving the marker in a mapping database based on the identification information.
In this embodiment, if the marker is detected in step S301, the marker is identified to obtain the corresponding identification information, and then the ID information is retrieved in the current mapping database db.
S304: inputting the identification information of the marker into the mapping database and obtaining a loop release time for the first detected marker, if the identification information is not retrieved from the mapping database.
In this embodiment, the mapping database db contains two fields: the marker ID field (with the variable name: id) and the last system loop release time field (with the variable name: last_loop_pub_time) triggered by the marker. The last loop release time field needs to be initialized to a system default value when the marker is first detected and identified. As an example, the system default value can be set to the loop release time of the first detected marker, and the system default value can be updated in sequence by each system loop release time triggered by the marker, so that the last loop release time field finally stores the latest loop release time triggered by the marker.
S305: determining whether the detected marker meets a preset condition, and mapping the current scene based on the marker if the detected marker meets the preset condition.
In this embodiment, step S305 is the same as or similar to step S11 in the above-mentioned embodiment, and the same or similar technical effect can be achieved, which will not be repeated herein.

In this embodiment, if the time difference between the current loop release time and the last loop release time is greater than the time threshold, step S711 is executed; if the time difference between the current loop release time and the last loop release time is smaller than or equal to the time threshold, step S702 is executed.
In this embodiment, the time threshold can be 300 seconds. As an example, if the last loop release time is 8:0:0 (8 hours, 0 minutes, and 0 seconds) and the current loop release time is 8:2:10, then the time difference between the current loop release time and the last loop release time is 2 minutes and 10 seconds, that is, 130 seconds. Because the time difference of 130 seconds is smaller than the time threshold of 300 seconds, step S702 is executed. As another example, if the last loop release time is 8:0:0, and the current loop release time is 8:5:10, then the time difference between the current loop release time and the last loop release time is 5 minutes and 10 seconds, that is, 310 seconds. Because the time difference of 310 seconds is greater than the time threshold of 300 seconds, step S711 is executed.
S711: determining the detected marker as meeting the preset condition and outputting a loop signal to map the current scene based on the marker.
In this embodiment, when the detected marker sequentially meets the distance condition, the times number condition, and the time condition, the corresponding loop signal is output to map the current scene based on the marker. At the same time, the last loop release field corresponding to the marker is updated to the current loop release time, which is the above-mentioned loop release time when the times number threshold is met. For example, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the involved last loop release time that meets the times number condition is 8:5:10, if the loop is at the first release, the last loop release time corresponding to the marker is updated from a system default value to 8:5:10. If the last loop release time that meets the times number condition for the second time is 8:12:10, then 8:510 is updated to 8:12:10. If the last loop release time that meets the times number condition for the third time is 8:18:10, then 8:12:10 seconds is updated to 8:18:10 seconds, and so on.
In the specific implementation process, after the scene where the marker located is mapped, it continues to execute step S702, and then re-detect the scenes of other positions until the entire large scene where the robot located is mapped.
In this embodiment, the robot mapping method detects the marker with the identification information can be identified by the robot in the current scene and then performs mapping. Compared with the prior art that directly perform mapping on the current scene through a device equipped with, for example, laser or visional sensors, it is capable of effectively reducing the difficulty of loops and the number of false loops. In addition, because the above-mentioned method performs the loop processing after the detected marker meets the time condition so as to map the current scene, which can effectively avoid the problem of frequent loops that causes the overload of the system of the robot and affects the quality of mapping, so that an environmental map of better quality can be built through the method, thereby providing a more accurate navigation and positioning service. At the same time, since the time condition is based on the distance condition and the times number condition, the frequency of the loop can be reduced to a greater extent than the scheme of performing loop processing to map the current scene after the detected marker meets the distance condition and the times number condition, so as to further avoid the problem of frequent loops which makes the system of the robot to overload and affects the quality of mapping, so that an environmental map of better quality can be built through the method, thereby providing a more accurate navigation and positioning service.

In addition, the mapping method has the characteristics of strong versatility and good practicality.
