摘要: 随着人工智能、精密机械和计算技术的发展,微小型无人系统在未来战场上将会扮演重要的角色。为解决单目视觉里程计尺度缺失以及微型机器人自身体积和载荷限制带来的功耗问题,引入单目深度估计技术,构建了一个低视角数据集,通过搭建卷积神经网络从单张图像中预测深度信息,对神经网络模型进行结构优化,将深度估计与单目视觉里程计融合并部署到JetsonNano平台。实验表明,融合后的单目视觉里程计能够在特定环境下恢复尺度信息,在JetsonNano上的功耗能够保持在较低水平,可为微型无人系统在未来战场上的隐蔽化、轻量化部署提供一定的研究基础。

Abstract: With the development of artificial intelligence, precision machinery and computing technology, micro-unmanned system will play an important role in the future battlefield. To solve the lack of monocular visual odometry scale, micro robot power consumption and load limits, the monocular depth estimation technology is introduced and a low view dataset is collected. A convolutional neural network to predict depth information from a single image is built, and the structure of neural network model is optimized. The depth estimation with monocular visual odometry are combined and deployed on JetsonNano. Experiments show that the combined monocular visual odometry can recover scale information in a specific environment, and the power consumption on Jetson Nano can be kept a low level, which can provide some research basis for the concealable and lightweight deployment of micro-unmanned system in the future battlefield.

Key words: monocular visual odometry, monocular depth estimation, convolution neural network, structure optimization
