An Autonomous Mapping Method for Robot Based on Efficient Frontier Exploration
An improved autonomous frontier exploration method is presented to solve the problems of autonomous mobile robot autonomously exploring indoor unknown environments with low efficiency
poor versatility
and incomplete map construction due to the narrow exploration area. The curve fitting method is used to screen the safety target exploration area for the constructed initial map frontier and for the robot unreachable target exploration area
adopting a sliding window neighborhood planning method to establish a new target exploration point
guiding the robot to autonomously navigate to the target exploration point
while using simultaneous localization and mapping technology to complete the robot's autonomous exploration and mapping of unknown environments. The experimental results show that the method can better solve the problems of narrow target area and unreachable target points in the traditional algorithm. And it can complete autonomous exploration and mapping of unknown indoor complex scenes with fewer exploration times
shorter exploration paths and higher exploration efficiency.
