In the industrial field, the anthropomorphism of grasping robots is the trend of future development, however, the basic vision technology adopted by the grasping robot at this stage has problems such as inaccurate positioning and low recognition efficiency. Based on this practical problem, in order to achieve more accurate positioning and recognition of objects, an object detection method for grasping robot based on improved YOLOv5 was proposed in this paper. Firstly, the robot object detection platform was designed, and the wooden block image data set is being proposed. Secondly, the Eye-In-Hand calibration method was used to obtain the relative three-dimensional pose of the object. Then the network pruning method was used to optimize the YOLOv5 model from the two dimensions of network depth and network width. Finally, the hyper parameter optimization was carried out. The simulation results show that the improved YOLOv5 network proposed in this paper has better object detection performance. The specific performance is that the recognition precision, recall, mAP value and F1 score are 99.35%, 99.38%, 99.43% and 99.41% respectively. Compared with the original YOLOv5s, YOLOv5m and YOLOv5l models, the mAP of the YOLOv5_ours model has increased by 1.12%, 1.2% and 1.27%, respectively, and the scale of the model has been reduced by 10.71%, 70.93% and 86.84%, respectively. The object detection experiment has verified the feasibility of the method proposed in this paper.
A novel, efficient, and accurate method to detect gear defects under a complex background during industrial gear production is proposed in this study. Firstly, we first analyzed image filtering and smoothing techniques, which we used as a basis to develop a complex background-weakening algorithm for detecting the microdefects of gears. Subsequently, we discussed the types and characteristics of gear manufacturing defects. Under the complex background of image acquisition, a new model S-YOLO is proposed for online detection of gear defects, and it was validated on our experimental platform for online gear defect detection under a complex background. Results show that S-YOLO has better recognition of microdefects under a complex background than the YOLOv3 target recognition network. The proposed algorithm has good robustness as well. Code and data have been made available.
