中文摘要
四足机器人能跨越低矮障碍物,但许多二维规划流水线仍将障碍建模为二元占用区域,并依赖基于采样的搜索方法,在计算预算有限时效率较低。本文提出一种基于 CMP-IRRT*(由 Channel Mamba PointNet 引导的 Informed RRT* 规划器)的、由感知驱动并考虑地形高度自适应性的规划框架。给定一张已标定的顶视 RGB 观测图像,感知模块估计障碍区域,并将深度预测转换为相对地面的高度图。规划器据此执行基于高度的条件碰撞检测:将高障碍视为不可通行,同时允许跨越低矮障碍;并利用 CMP 引导将采样偏向有潜力的区域,同时保留标准的自由空间采样与 Informed 采样作为后备。在二维规划基准测试上的实验表明,CMP-IRRT* 在已探索节点数与迭代次数上均低于经典与神经引导基线;控制变量消融实验验证了基于 Mamba 的引导模块的贡献。在所构建的可通行性感知场景中,当低矮障碍可通行时,所提规划器将路径长度最多缩短 16.3%;在 Unitree Go2 上的演示进一步展示了可执行的绕行与跨越行为。代码已开源。
关键要点
- 01问题:二维规划流水线把障碍物建模为二元占用,且采样搜索在有限预算下效率低,未利用高度信息区分可跨越与不可跨越的障碍。
- 02方法:基于 CMP-IRRT*,结合 Channel Mamba PointNet 感知模块生成地面相对高度图,并在 Informed RRT* 中执行高度条件碰撞检测与神经引导采样。
- 03结果:在二维基准上较经典与神经引导基线减少已探索节点和迭代次数;在可通行性场景中路径长度最多缩短 16.3%。
- 04验证:Unitree Go2 实物演示展示绕行与跨越低障碍的可执行行为;消融实验支持 Mamba 引导模块的贡献。
- 05局限:摘要未提及对稀疏植被、动态障碍或极端光照条件的鲁棒性,适用边界仍待进一步评估。

原始英文摘要
arXiv:2610.10470v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Quadruped robots can traverse low obstacles, but many 2D planning pipelines still model obstacles as binary occupied regions and rely on sampling-based search that can be inefficient under a limited budget. We propose a perception-assisted height-adaptive planning framework based on CMP-IRRT*, a Channel Mamba PointNet-guided Informed RRT* planner. Given a calibrated top-view RGB observation, the perception module estimates obstacle regions and converts depth predictions into a ground-relative height map. The planner then performs height-conditioned collision checking, treating high obstacles as blocked while allowing low obstacles to be traversed, and uses the CMP guide to bias sampling toward promising regions while retaining standard free-space and informed sampling fallbacks. Experiments on 2D planning benchmarks show that CMP-IRRT* reduces explored nodes and iterations compared with classical and neural-guided baselines, and a controlled ablation supports the contribution of the Mamba-based guide. In constructed traversability-aware scenarios, the proposed planner reduces path length by up to 16.3% when low obstacles are traversable, and a Unitree Go2 demonstration further shows executable bypassing and traversal behaviors.
