Abstract
A vision-based tracking control method for a quadruped robot includes receiving unilateral images captured by multiple cameras pointing different directions and utilizes an image stitching algorithm to synthesize the unilateral images into a panoramic image; based on the panoramic image, determining first and second position coordinates of the moving target and environmental obstacles; and formulating or modifying a navigation path for tracking the moving target based on the first and second position coordinates. The method significantly improves the perception ability, navigation accuracy and robustness of the quadruped robot in dynamic environments, thereby achieving more intelligent and flexible control.
