Human eyes are prone to fatigue when identifying obstacles for a long time,resulting in large error in obstacle identification.Therefore,a machine vision based obstacle identification method for live working robots in distribution net-works is proposed.The camera carried by the live working robot accurately captures continuous frame images during distri-bution network operations.Using multi-scale Harris subpixel corner detection algorithm,image feature points are extracted and matched using an improved k-d tree nearest neighbor search algorithm to obtain matching feature point pairs.Establish a robot motion transformation model,and combine adaptive filtering and threshold segmentation to suppress the background information of the image after motion compensation,extract obstacle targets,and complete obstacle recognition.Experi-ments show that this method can effectively collect images during distribution network operations,and the feature point matching effect is good.The obstacle recognition results are consistent with the actual situation.
