XV Xing-jun · Journal of Mechanical & Electrical Engineering · 2012
In order to solve the problem of covering the lawn area by the intelligent mower with no function of navigation,a regional all-covered algorithm by decomposing the target area and covering one by one was presented.Firstly the regional all-covered strategy was introduced,then the cell decomposition algorithm was selected as a region-wide coverage of the overall strategy based on the hardware conditions of the mower,and the walking way of back and forth was used for each sub-area.A detailed description of the off-line algorithm for full coverage was presented to the region with no obstacle and two obstacles,and the algorithm for region with obstacles was promoted and improved.The regional all-covered algorithm for a circular area with two circular obstacles was tested based on Matlab.The experimental results show that the regional all-covered algorithm presented can achieve the best coverage of the target lawn area.
