Immersive remote control system and method for excavator

Abstract

The invention discloses an immersive remote control system and method for an excavator. The immersive remote control system comprises a remote control end and a controlled end, wherein the controlled end comprises an excavator and a main control computer, a controlled end wireless communication module and a microphone which are arranged on the excavator; the remote control end comprises a visual computer, a remote control end wireless communication module, a six-degree-of-freedom motion platform, a simulation cockpit arranged on the six-degree-of-freedom motion platform, a spherical screen arranged at the periphery of the six-degree-of-freedom motion platform and a spherical screen projection device arranged at the position, above the simulation cockpit and in the center of the spherical screen; a remote control operation device is arranged in the simulation cockpit; and the controlled end further comprises a tilt angle sensor arranged on the top of the excavator, and data collected by the tilt angle sensor are transmitted to the main control computer. By using the immersive remote control system disclosed by the invention, the immersion feeling of an operator can be effectively improved, the operator can well feel the posture of the excavator, and therefore the remote control operation efficiency and safety are greatly improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of excavator remote control, in particular to an excavator immersive remote control system and method. Background technique [0002] When working in dangerous areas such as steep slope landslides, silt water, nuclear pollution, etc., the remote control of the excavator can prevent the construction personnel from suffering secondary hazards and greatly improve the safety of construction. When performing remote operations, the sense of immersion of the operator has a great impact on improving operational efficiency. At present, there are mainly three technical ways to perceive the scene information of the construction site. One is that the operator directly controls the remote control visually, which has a strong sense of immersion but the remote control distance is short; The display shows that the operator obtains scene information by watching the display. Due to the lack of three-dimensional images, the operator nee...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The above two patents realize the remote control operation of the excavator and the image acquisition and remote display of the construction site of the excavator. However, the sense of immersion in the remote control is poor, and it is difficult for the operator to feel the attitude of the excavator, especially when working in complex areas. There are hidden dangers such as misjudgment and misoperation leading to safety accidents
