Unmanned aerial vehicle multi-tower inspection optimization method and terminal under limited inspection time

Abstract

The invention discloses an unmanned aerial vehicle multi-tower inspection optimization method and terminal under limited inspection time, and belongs to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle inspection. The method comprises the following steps: generating a map of an inspection area in advance, and marking towers in the inspection area in the map; receiving an inspection task for a specified numberof towers in the inspection area, and determining a starting point and an ending point of inspection; acquiring endurance time of the unmanned aerial vehicle; calculating an inspection sequence of the towers and a flight path of the unmanned aerial vehicle by adopting a preset algorithm according to the inspection task, the endurance time of the unmanned aerial vehicle and the position information of the designated number of towers, the starting point and the terminal point to obtain an inspection scheme; and issuing a driving instruction to drive the unmanned aerial vehicle to execute an inspection task according to the inspection scheme. The terminal comprises a setting module, a confirmation module, an acquisition module, an optimization module and a driving module. According to the invention, the intelligent optimization of an unmanned aerial vehicle multi-tower inspection scheme under limited inspection time is realized, it is ensured that the unmanned aerial vehicle completes aninspection task more effectively and intelligently, and the efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle inspections, in particular to an inspection optimization method and terminal for multi-tower inspections of unmanned aerial vehicles with limited inspection time. Background technique [0002] At present, the application of drones has been involved in many fields such as agriculture, transportation, rescue, inspection and so on. In the application of unmanned aerial vehicles to perform the task of inspecting power poles and towers, the operator usually controls the whole process of the unmanned aerial vehicle with remote control and other equipment, and the unmanned aerial vehicle performs a series of actions such as flying and taking pictures to inspect the power poles and towers. When multiple towers need to be inspected, how to choose the order of inspection of these towers and the path of inspection is very important. At present, pre-set schemes are generally used for inspection of multi...

Problems solved by technology

When multiple towers need to be inspected, how to choose the order of inspection of these towers and the path of inspection is very important. At present, pre-set schemes are generally used for inspection of multiple towers, but the duration of the UAV is limited. There may be situations where the inspection cannot be completed, which will eventually lead to the failure of the inspection task
