Revolutionizing Loading Robot Perception: Advanced 3D Carriage Detection Technology

In view of the problems of low efficiency and high cost of manual cloth loading, the introduction of loading robots has become a key strategy to improve the loading process. The three-dimensional detection system was designed on the basis of the loading robot, and the hardware design and software demand analysis software were divided and designed. The system uses advanced 3D sensors as the core perception equipment, which is installed at the front end of the robot arm to realize the intelligent detection of environmental information in the truck compartment. Based on the TOF time-of-flight technology, high-quality point cloud data was obtained. In terms of point cloud processing, the normal estimation algorithm and the RANSAC circle fitting algorithm are proposed, which aim to optimize the quality of point cloud data, reduce noise, and accelerate the real-time processing process. It can generate high-precision three-dimensional point cloud data, obtain the position and size of the detection carriage, and detect the loading status of the cloth, which can achieve higher speed and more accurate grasping and placing of the cloth, reduce the error, thereby significantly improving the overall loading efficiency and reducing labor costs.
