Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of battery swapping for electric vehicles. A control method of a smart battery swapping station includes: acquiring vehicle information of a vehicle requiring battery swapping, and retrieving a model type of a corresponding battery pack locking and unlocking hole and specific parameters from a database; when the vehicle arrives at a battery swapping operation platform, capturing an image of a vehicle chassis to determine an initial pose of the vehicle chassis; processing the initial pose to extract center coordinates of the locking and unlocking hole and a normal vector direction of the locking and unlocking hole; comparing the center coordinates of the locking and unlocking hole and the normal vector direction of the locking and unlocking hole with the retrieved model type of battery pack locking and unlocking hole and specific parameters in the database to determine if the information is consistent.
