Abstract:A design and implementation scheme of intelligent power line patrol robot is proposed. Firstly, the functional requirements of the line patrol robot are analyzed. Using the lightweight design idea, the structural design scheme of the line patrol robot is proposed, which has the functions of autonomous walking, obstacle climbing, slope climbing and so on. Secondly, an electrical control platform based on robot operating system (ROS) is designed to obtain 3D laser point cloud, position and orientation system (POS) data, digital image and other data in real time. Thirdly, the data fusion method is designed by fusing 3D laser, pose, vision and other data. Finally, after testing, the performance parameters of the experimental prototype can meet the requirements of engineering application research.
