Automated object detection in a dusty environment
11567197 · 2023-01-31 · ·

Systems and methods for object detection in a dusty environment can enhance the ability of autonomous machines to distinguish dust clouds from solid obstacles and proceed appropriately. A library of dust classifiers can be provided, where each dust classifier is separately trained to distinguish airborne dust from objects in the environment. Different dust classifiers can correspond to different categories of dusty environments. Based on current conditions, control logic in an autonomous machine can categorize its environment and select a corresponding dust classifier. The dust classifier output can be used to alter a behavior of the autonomous machine, including a behavior of the control logic. For instance, the control logic can apply a consistency check to the output of the dust classifier and an output of an AI-based object classifier to detect instances where the object classifier misidentifies dust as an object.

Autonomous traveling work machine

To make it possible to correct a current position detected by an autonomous traveling work machine to the correct position with a simple configuration. A robot lawn mower includes a first position detecting unit for detecting a current position by using odometry and a second position detecting unit for detecting a current position by using an image capture. When position detection accuracy of both of the first and second position detecting units decreases to less than or equal to a predetermined value, the robot lawn mower is controlled to travel to either of zones Z1 and Z2 in which the position detection accuracy of the second position detecting unit is relatively high, and when the robot lawn mower moves to either of the zones Z1 and Z2, a current position used for autonomous traveling is corrected to the current position detected by the second position detecting unit.
