Robot control method using visual graphic overlays
The patent US12072701B2 outlines a robot control method and system designed to enhance the navigation and safety of robots operating in various environments. The method involves receiving an image of the robot's surroundings and driving information, which is then used to control a display unit that outputs a graphic object. This graphic object represents the robot's driving path and is dynamically adjusted based on the robot's driving direction and speed. The graphic object is displayed in an overlapping manner with the image, and its visual characteristics, such as gradient and area, are modified according to the robot's driving behavior and the presence of dynamic objects in the environment.
Additionally, the patent describes a building equipped with a cloud server and multiple cameras to facilitate the robot's navigation. The cloud server processes the images and driving information to provide real-time safety guidance through the graphic object, which indicates varying risk levels associated with different regions in the robot's path. These regions are arranged sequentially, with the highest risk area closest to the robot and the lowest risk area further away. The system is designed to adaptively change the visual characteristics of the graphic object based on the robot's speed and the movement of nearby objects, thereby improving the overall safety and efficiency of robotic operations in indoor environments.
