BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0025] Figure 1 A flowchart of the safety rope wearing state monitoring method provided for the embodiments of the application is shown. Detailed Implementation

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the technical solutions of this invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a method for monitoring the wearing status of a safety rope, including...

[0028] Step A: When a vehicle appears in the monitoring area, monitor the status of the vehicle roof through visual analysis. When a person is identified on the vehicle roof, save the image and record the coordinates of the person's image area.

[0029] Step B: Locate the safety rope in the image saved in Step A using visual analysis, and record the coordinates of the safety rope;

[0030] Step C: Find the intersection of the coordinates of the human figure area and the safety rope. If the intersection is not empty, it is assumed that the worker is wearing a safety rope. If the intersection is empty, the worker is not wearing a safety rope.

[0031] This embodiment locates the safety rope in the image of the monitored person and determines whether the safety rope is being worn by using the intersection of coordinates. It has low computational load, fast processing speed, simple and effective judgment logic, and can provide results in real time and timely feedback to the control center, effectively realizing the monitoring of the safety rope wearing status of the workers.

[0032] Specifically, the method for determining the presence of a vehicle within the monitoring area is as follows: a photoelectric switch is set up in the vehicle's working area, and the photoelectric switch is triggered when the vehicle enters the working area.

[0033] The monitoring area is also equipped with cameras. When the photoelectric switch is triggered, the cameras can identify and store license plate information for later viewing of vehicle status.

[0034] When detecting people on the roof, the roof-mounted personnel detection algorithm detects images obtained by the camera. When a person is detected on the roof, the coordinates of the person's image area are recorded, and the image is transmitted to the safety rope detection algorithm.

[0035] The roof personnel detection algorithm is obtained by collecting image data and learning by using a YOLO network algorithm, wherein the image data includes multi-scene image data of no car and no person, car and person, car and no person, and no car and person in a monitoring area, the car and person scene includes a case of a person on the roof of the car and a person beside the car, and the case of a person on the roof of the car is labeled as the same category, and other scenes are labeled as another category, and the image data is randomly scaled, rotated (less than 30 degrees), and contrast image adjusted, and the labeled and operated image is input into the YOLO network algorithm to learn the roof personnel detection algorithm.

[0036] The data and labels are learned by the YOLO network algorithm, and a network model is output. When detecting, an image is input, and the model can be used to predict the result of roof detection and the image position area of a person.

[0037] The safety rope detection algorithm is obtained by collecting image data and learning by using a YOLO network algorithm, and the image data includes images of three states of no safety rope, natural suspension of the safety rope, and connection of the safety rope and the human body, the connection of the safety rope and the human body is labeled as a normal state, and other images are labeled as an abnormal state, and the labeled image is input into the YOLO network algorithm to learn the safety rope detection algorithm.

[0038] To ensure the accuracy of the detection result, a plurality of cameras with different viewing angles are arranged in the monitoring area in the preferred embodiment, the influence of the overlapping of the viewing angles on the detection result is eliminated by multi-view detection, when the safety rope is detected by part of the viewing angles, verification is performed by other viewing angles, and only when the monitoring results of all the cameras with different viewing angles indicate that the worker has worn the safety rope, it is considered that the worker has worn the safety rope and can normally work.

[0039] Preferably, the safety rope also needs to be connected with a fixed rod, if necessary, the positions of the safety rope and the fixed rod can be detected at the same time, and it is considered that the safety rope has been connected with the fixed rod when the coordinates of the safety rope and the coordinates of the fixed rod have an intersection, so as to prevent accidents caused by the safety rope not being fixed.

[0040] The roof personnel detection algorithm obtains pictures from the camera by polling, detects once per second until a person on the roof signal is detected, saves the portrait area coordinates, and sends the picture to the safety rope detection algorithm to detect the area coordinates of the safety rope, takes the intersection of the portrait area and the safety rope area, considers that the safety rope has been normally worn when the intersection is not empty, and continues to detect when the intersection is empty, if no signal of wearing the safety rope is detected within a preset time (30 seconds in this embodiment) after detecting a person on the roof, an alarm signal is sent to the control center, and a video is saved.

[0041] The embodiment supports simultaneous addition of multiple cameras for multi-angle safety rope detection to avoid or reduce the missed detection problem caused by shielding. The camera polling detection method is used to detect whether there is a person on the roof. Pictures are obtained from the camera and sent to the roof personnel detection algorithm. Detection is performed once every second until a person is detected on the roof. The position area information A is saved. The picture is sent to the safety rope detection algorithm to detect the safety rope position information B. The region intersection ratio IoU of the working person and the safety rope is calculated. If the IoU is greater than 0, it is judged that the person wears a safety rope for work. Otherwise, it indicates that the person does not wear a safety rope for work. If no safety rope is detected, the camera polling stage is returned to continue detection.

[0042] The system detection decision adopts multiple cameras to realize multi-angle safety rope wearing detection analysis and recognition. If no safety rope is detected by multiple cameras within a period of time, the central system is warned to remind the user that there may be a safety rope wearing behavior. At the same time, suspicious violation videos are saved, and license plate information is recorded.

If the intersection is not empty, it is considered that the working person has worn a safety rope. If the intersection is empty, it is considered that the working person has not worn a safety rope.

[0049] The method for judging whether a vehicle appears in the monitoring area comprises the following steps: setting an optical switch in a vehicle working area; triggering the optical switch when the vehicle enters the working area; and identifying and storing the license plate information after the optical switch is triggered.

[0050] The roof personnel detection module and the safety rope detection module respectively collect pictures of personnel and safety ropes in different states, and perform manual labeling. After the labeling is completed, the yolo network algorithm is used for learning and training.
