Object Detection and Information Perception by Fusing YOLO-SCG and Point Cloud Clustering

摘要

Robots need to sense information about the external environment before moving, which helps them to recognize and understand their surroundings so that they can plan safe and effective paths and avoid obstacles. Conventional algorithms using a single sensor cannot obtain enough information and lack real-time capabilities. To solve these problems, we propose an information perception algorithm with vision as the core and the fusion of LiDAR. Regarding vision, we propose the YOLO-SCG model, which is able to detect objects faster and more accurately. When processing point clouds, we integrate the detection results of vision for local clustering, improving both the processing speed of the point cloud and the detection effectiveness. Experiments verify that our proposed YOLO-SCG algorithm improves accuracy by 4.06% and detection speed by 7.81% compared to YOLOv9, and our algorithm excels in distinguishing different objects in the clustering of point clouds.
