The leakage of urban natural gas pipes may cause significant safety hazards and economic losses. Autonomous inspection of these pipes using quadruped robots is an effective inspection method. This paper proposes a hybrid algorithm combining optimized RRT* and DWA(ORRT*-DWA) to solve the path planning problem faced by quadruped robots in urban environment. Firstly, the RRT* algorithm is optimized through three strategies, including probability-based sampling, extended node filtering, and adaptive step size. The ORRT* algorithm is then integrated with the DWA algorithm to form the new path planning algorithm. The ORRT*-DWA algorithm achieves higher efficiency in path optimization and enables local dynamic obstacle avoidance. Then, the performance of ORRT*-DWA algorithm is compared with RRT* algorithm and the informed RRT* algorithm. Results show that the global planning path length is reduced by 8.9% and the actual path length by 4.2%. Finally, a field test conducted in a 100 m × 50 m urban residential area shows that the ORRT*-DWA algorithm plans shorter and smoother paths compared to the informed RRT* algorithm, achieving a 9.7% reduction in path length. |
