Problems solved by technology

However, UWB is seriously affected by metal occluded objects, and may even fail. It needs to be in open conditions to achieve a ranging accuracy of 10cm. However, the port environment is relatively complex, and there are often metal containers and objects such as car bodies. The occlusion phenomenon, which has a great impact on UWB, cannot guarantee open conditions, and is easily affected by metal occlusion objects, and it is difficult to achieve a ranging accuracy of 10cm. In addition, the allowable error of container alignment in the port environment is within 5cm. UWB is difficult Container alignment adapted to port environment

Embodiment 1

[0039] Such as Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the lidar is installed at the center of the front and rear of the unmanned truck, where the positive direction of the lidar is defined as the laser X-axis facing the rear of the truck (the opposite direction of the front of the truck), The direction perpendicular to the X-axis of the laser is the Y-axis of the laser. The container placed on the unmanned collection truck is a vehicle-mounted container, and the container placed on the ground of the port is a landing container. The landing containers are respectively located at the left and right sides of the vehicle-mounted container. side.

[0040] A lidar-assisted container alignment method for unmanned container collection in ports according to the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0041] S1. The laser radar installed on the unmanned collection truck obtains the laser point cloud of the surrounding environment of the unmanned collection truck, and extracts the poin...

Embodiment 2

[0061] Such as Figure 5 As shown, the lidar is installed at the center of the front and rear of the unmanned truck, where the positive direction of the lidar is defined as the laser X-axis facing the rear of the truck (the opposite direction of the front of the truck), The direction perpendicular to the X-axis of the laser is the Y-axis of the laser. The container placed on the unmanned collection truck is a vehicle-mounted container, and the container placed on the ground of the port is a landing container. The landing containers are respectively located at the left and right sides of the vehicle-mounted container. side.

[0062] A lidar-assisted container alignment method for unmanned container collection in ports according to the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0063] S1. The laser radar installed on the unmanned collection truck obtains the laser point cloud of the surrounding environment of the unmanned collection truck, and extracts the points in the...

Embodiment 3

[0079] On the basis of Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2, Beiyang or sick lidar can be used as the lidar on the unmanned collection truck. According to different models, the lidar adjusts the collection of point cloud ranges of on-board containers and landing containers The range of the laser point cloud, in order to better calculate the distance difference required for the container alignment, and control the position movement of the unmanned truck through the distance difference, so as to control the alignment accuracy of the vehicle-mounted container and the landing container. The allowable error of the port is within 5cm. Compared with the UWB alignment, the alignment accuracy is improved, and it is more suitable for container alignment in the port environment, and will not be affected by metal blocking objects.

Abstract

The invention discloses a laser radar auxiliary container alignment method for a port unmanned container truck, and the method comprises the following steps: obtaining laser radar point cloud data, and extracting the point cloud of a detection region; fitting all straight lines in the point cloud of the detection area through a straight line detection algorithm; traversing all straight lines, extracting a straight line, perpendicular to the positive direction of the laser origin, of the edge of a vehicle-mounted container; calculating the distance from the laser origin to the vehicle-mounted container, traversing all straight lines, extracting the straight line, perpendicular to the positive direction of the laser origin, of the vertex of the outer side of a floor container, calculating the distance from the laser origin to the floor container, and calculating the alignment difference value of the vehicle-mounted container and the floor container. Compared with traditional UWB positioning, the alignment precision is within 5 cm and adapts to allowable errors of a port, the alignment precision is high, the vehicle-mounted container and the landing container are placed in an alignedmode so that a port lifting appliance can grab, load and unload the containers conveniently and rapidly, and the loading and unloading efficiency of the port is improved.
