摘要：Applying computer vision to mobile robot navigation has been studied more than two decades. For the commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) automated guided vehicles (AGV) products, the cameras are still not widely used for the acquisition of guidance information from the environment. One of the most challenging problems for a vision guidance system of AGVs lies in the complex illumination conditions. Compared to the applications of computer vision where on-machine cameras are fixed in place, it is difficult to structure the illumination circumstance for an AGV that needs to travel through a large work space. In order to distinguish the original color features of path images from their illumination artifacts, an illumination-adaptive image partitioning approach is proposed based on the support vector machine (SVM) classifier with the slack constraint and the kernel function, which is utilized to divide a path image to low-, normal-, and high-illumination regions automatically. Moreover, an intelligent path recognition method is developed to carry out guide color enhancement and adaptive threshold segmentation in different regions. Experimental results show that the SVM-based classifier has the satisfactory generalization ability, and the illumination-adaptive path recognition approach has the high adaptability to the complex illumination conditions, when recognizing the path pixels in the field of view with both high-reflective and dark-shadow regions. The 98% average rate of path recognition will significantly facilitate the subsequent operation of path fitting for vision guidance of AGVs. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd
