description Autonomous navigation technology is a core technology for intelligent operation, allowing the vehicles to perform tasks without relying on external information, which effectively improves the concealability and reliability. In this paper, based on the previous research on the bionic compound eye, a multi-channel camera array with different polarization degrees was used to construct the atmospheric polarization state measurement platform. A polarization trough threshold segmentation algorithm was applied to study the distribution characteristics and characterization methods of polarization states in atmospheric remote sensing images. In the extracted polarization feature map, the tilting suggestion box was obtained based on the multi-direction window extraction network (similarity-based region proposal networks, SRPN) and the rotation of the suggestion box (Rotation Region of interests, RRoIs). Fast Region Convolutional Neural Networks (RCNN) was used to screen the suggestion boxes, and the Non-maximum suppression (NMS) method was used to select the angle, corresponding to the label of the suggestion box with the highest score, as the solar meridian azimuth in the vehicle coordinate system. The azimuth angle of the solar meridian in the atmospheric coordinate system can be calculated by the astronomical formula. Finally, the final heading angle can be obtained according to the conversion relationship between the coordinate systems. By fitting the measured data based on the least Square method, the slope K value is −1.062, RMSE (Root Mean Square Error) is 6.984, and the determination coefficient R-Square is 0.9968. Experimental results prove the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, and this study can construct an autonomous navigation algorithm with high concealment and precision, providing a new research idea for the research of autonomous navigation technology.
