| contents | The robotic autonomous luggage trolley collection system employs robots to gather and transport scattered luggage trolleys at airports. However, existing methods for detecting and locating these luggage trolleys often fail when they are not fully visible. To address this, we introduce the Hierarchical Progressive Perception System (HPPS), which enhances the detection and localization of luggage trolleys under partial occlusion. The HPPS processes the luggage trolley's position and orientation separately, which requires only RGB images for labeling and training, eliminating the need for 3D coordinates and alignment. The HPPS can accurately determine the position of the luggage trolley with just one well-detected keypoint and estimate the luggage trolley's orientation when it is partially occluded. Once the luggage trolley's initial pose is detected, HPPS updates this information continuously to refine its accuracy until the robot begins grasping. The experiments on detection and localization demonstrate that HPPS is more reliable under partial occlusion compared to existing methods. Its effectiveness and robustness have also been confirmed through practical tests in actual luggage trolley collection tasks. A website about this work is available at HPPS. |
