The cliff detection method and the terminal of the invention are suitable for perfecting the cliff detection function of a vehicle by using a single-point laser sensor, and are explained by the following specific embodiments:
example one
Referring to fig. 1, 3 to 5, a cliff detection method includes the steps of:
and S1, respectively installing single-point lasers downwards at the front and the rear of the left and right driving wheels of the vehicle, and installing the single-point lasers downwards at the front of the vehicle in an inclined mode.
The device comprises a left driving wheel, a right driving wheel, a first single-point laser, a second single-point laser, a third single-point laser and a universal wheel, wherein the first single-point laser is installed downwards in the right rear direction of the left driving wheel, the second single-point laser is installed downwards in the right front direction of the left driving wheel and at one end close to the left driving wheel, the third single-point laser is installed downwards in the right front direction of the left driving wheel and at one end close to the universal wheel, and the universal wheel is arranged in the front middle position of the bottom of the vehicle;
mounting a fourth single-point laser obliquely right in front of the vehicle;
and a fifth single-point laser is downwards installed at one end, close to the universal wheel, right in front of the right driving wheel, a sixth single-point laser is downwards installed at one end, close to the right driving wheel, right in front of the right driving wheel, and a seventh single-point laser is downwards installed at the right rear of the right driving wheel.
Specifically, referring to fig. 3 and 4, the first to seventh single-point lasers correspond to the single-point lasers 1 to 7 in the drawing, wherein the single-point laser 1 is installed right behind the left driving wheel; the single-point laser 2 is arranged right in front of the left driving wheel and close to one end of the left driving wheel; the single-point laser 3 is arranged right in front of the left driving wheel and close to one end of the universal wheel; the single-point laser 4 is arranged right in front of the vehicle; the single-point laser 5 is arranged right in front of the right driving wheel and close to one end of the universal wheel; the single-point laser 6 is arranged right in front of the right driving wheel and close to one end of the right driving wheel; a single point laser 7 is mounted directly behind the right drive wheel.
All single-point laser installation modes are divided into two directions: downwards and obliquely, wherein only the single-point laser 4 is obliquely arranged, so that the situation that the vehicle falls off the cliff due to the fact that inertia cannot stop in time when the vehicle is braked because the position detected by the laser is too close to the universal wheel can be avoided.
S2, selecting a corresponding single-point laser group for detection according to the motion state of the vehicle, judging whether the distance detected by one single-point laser in the single-point laser group exceeds a preset distance, if so, triggering a vehicle braking program, and moving towards the direction of the single-point laser of which the detected distance does not exceed the preset distance.
Wherein, the selecting the corresponding single-point laser group for detection according to the motion state of the vehicle comprises:
if the motion state of the vehicle is forward or forward turning, using second to sixth single-point lasers as a first single-point laser group for detection;
and if the motion state of the vehicle is reversing or reversing and turning, using the first single-point laser and the seventh single-point laser as a second single-point laser group for detection.
Specifically, the motion state of the vehicle can be classified into four types: advancing, advancing turning, backing and backing turning; under various motion states, the threshold value of each single-point laser is not changed.
The range of each single-point laser detection is different:
the single-point laser 1 is used for judging the cliff situation right behind the left driving wheel, namely the left rear part of the whole vehicle;
the single-point laser 2 is used for judging the cliff situation right in front of the left driving wheel and close to the left driving wheel;
the single-point laser 3 is used for judging the cliff situation right in front of the left driving wheel and close to the universal wheel;
the single-point laser 4 is used for judging the cliff condition right in front of the middle universal wheel, namely right in front of the whole vehicle;
the single-point laser 5 is used for judging the cliff situation right in front of the right driving wheel and close to the universal wheel;
the single-point laser 6 is used for judging the cliff situation right in front of the right driving wheel and close to the right driving wheel;
the single-point laser 7 is used for judging the cliff situation right behind the right driving wheel, namely the right rear side of the whole vehicle.
During advancing and advancing turning, the single-point lasers 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 participate in cliff detection, and can effectively detect the front cliff, the left front cliff and the oil bank; when backing and turning backward, the single-point lasers 1 and 7 participate in cliff detection, and can effectively detect the front back cliff, the left back cliff and the right back cliff.
Wherein, it includes before judging whether the distance that a single point laser in the single point laser group detected surpasses preset distance:
if the single-point laser is installed downwards, the preset distance t is h1+ l, wherein h1 represents the height of the single-point laser to the ground downwards, and l represents the maximum ground fall of the single-point laser;
if the single-point laser is obliquely installed, the preset distance t is (h2+ l)/sin α, wherein h2 represents the ground height of the oblique single-point laser, l represents the maximum ground fall of the single-point laser, and α represents the inclination angle of the single-point laser;
and calculating the maximum ground fall which can be borne by the vehicle according to the structure, the mass and the driving capacity of the vehicle.
Specifically, in order to avoid false cliff determination due to small ground undulations, the preset distance in cliff determination needs to be determined by taking into account the maximum ground fall that can be passed by the vehicle, that is, the single-point laser ground height h and the maximum ground fall l.
Referring to fig. 5, the preset distance of the single-point laser installed downwards is: t is h1+ l, h1 represents the height of the ground of the downward single-point laser;
the preset distance of the obliquely installed single-point laser is as follows: t is (h2+ l)/sin α, h2 represents the height of the inclined single-point laser with respect to the ground, and α represents the inclination angle of the single-point laser.
The maximum ground fall value needs to be flexibly set according to actual conditions such as the actual structure of the vehicle, the mass of the whole vehicle, the driving capability of the vehicle and the like, and in the embodiment, the maximum ground fall is designed to be 30 mm.
When the distance data acquired by any single-point laser sensor on the vehicle exceeds the preset distance, a braking program is immediately triggered, and the vehicle can only move towards the direction of the position of the single-point laser sensor which does not detect the cliff.
Therefore, the method and the device are mainly applied to cliff detection in the vehicle driving process, can quickly and accurately detect the cliff road conditions existing on the vehicle driving route, and provide accurate environmental data for the vehicle to avoid the cliffs.
Example two
Referring to fig. 2, a cliff detection terminal includes a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, and the processor executes the computer program to implement the steps of a cliff detection method according to an embodiment.
In summary, according to the cliff detection method and the terminal provided by the invention, the single-point lasers are respectively installed downwards in the front and the back of the left and right driving wheels of the vehicle, the single-point laser is installed downwards in the front of the vehicle in an inclined manner, so that the cliff situation near the driving wheels can be detected through the single-point laser near the left and right driving wheels, and the situation that the vehicle cannot be stopped in time due to inertia when the vehicle is braked because the position detected by the laser is too close to the front wheels when the vehicle moves forwards can be avoided through the inclined single-point laser in the front of the vehicle; the corresponding single-point laser group is selected for detection according to the motion state of the vehicle, so that irrelevant single-point laser data does not participate in logic in different motion states, and the probability of unsmooth vehicle operation caused by signal false triggering and the like is greatly reduced; if the distance detected by one single-point laser in the single-point laser group exceeds the preset distance, triggering a vehicle braking program, and moving towards the direction of the single-point laser of which the detected distance does not exceed the preset distance; the method for calculating the preset distance by the downward-mounted single-point laser and the obliquely-mounted single-point laser is different, and the calculation can be flexibly and accurately performed. Therefore, the vehicle can accurately judge the surrounding ground environment through the arrangement of the plurality of single-point laser groups and the distance threshold value, the vehicle can be helped to pass through narrow roads and approach to fine motion scenes such as straight line motion of the cliff, and the accuracy of cliff detection is improved.
The above description is only an embodiment of the present invention, and not intended to limit the scope of the present invention, and all equivalent changes made by using the contents of the present specification and the drawings, or applied directly or indirectly to the related technical fields, are included in the scope of the present invention.
