[0065] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0066] Example 1

[0067] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the present application provides an outdoor inspection method, which is applied to an intelligent inspection terminal, and the intelligent inspection terminal network is connected to a cloud server; the method includes:

[0068] The current position is obtained through the intelligent inspection terminal, and the position of the next inspection point to be inspected is determined based on the shortest inspection route determined in advance by the Markov quadruple and the environment to be inspected currently; the environment includes the terrain environment and the weather environment;

[0069] Based on the current position, the position of the next inspection point to be inspected, and the terrain environment to be inspected, a navigation route with the shortest time or the shortest path is generated on the intelligent inspection terminal to guide the user to the next inspection point to be inspected for inspection; the navigation route includes danger prompts at preset location points;

[0070] Associating the ground inspection data acquired by the intelligent inspection terminal itself with the identifier of the current inspection point to generate inspection data corresponding to the current inspection point;

[0071] Upload the inspection data of the current inspection point to the cloud server through the intelligent inspection terminal;

[0072] If the intelligent inspection terminal detects that its own power level is lower than the preset threshold and / or the current weather environment meets the preset abnormal conditions, a preset warning message will be sent to the cloud server; if the posture data detected by the intelligent inspection terminal meets the preset user danger conditions, the preset rescue process will be executed.

[0073] The outdoor inspection method provided in this embodiment overcomes the disadvantages that manual inspection is completely dependent on inspection personnel and the inspection process is time-consuming and labor-intensive, reduces the dependence on manual labor during the inspection process, and improves the inspection efficiency.

[0074] Secondly, during the inspection process, route guidance is provided to users based on the terrain and weather environment. Users do not need to record inspection points by themselves, and the inspection path can be modified in time according to changes in the terrain and weather environment, which is highly intelligent.

[0075] Furthermore, the storage method of obtaining ground inspection data through the intelligent inspection terminal itself and storing the inspection data through the cloud server is convenient and also convenient for subsequent viewing.

[0076] In addition, the smart inspection terminal can send early warning information to the cloud server when the battery is low or the weather is abnormal. The smart inspection terminal can monitor the user's posture data in real time to rescue the user in time when the user is in danger, which ensures the safety of the user.

[0077] like Figure 3 As shown, the intelligent inspection terminal stores the inspection route to be inspected currently, and the inspection route includes multiple inspection points;

[0078] Outdoor inspection methods also include:

[0079] If an abnormality is found in the detection result of the current inspection point detected by the intelligent inspection terminal, the location of the current inspection point is determined;

[0080] Centered on the location of the current inspection point, a certain number of new inspection points are set within the preset range based on the type of anomaly;

[0081] Generate new inspection routes based on newly added inspection points and existing inspection routes.

[0082] The outdoor inspection method provided in this embodiment can adjust the inspection route according to the actual inspection situation during the inspection process, and is highly intelligent and flexible. The outdoor inspection method provided in this embodiment is different from the conventional inspection method that provides an unchanging inspection route. This embodiment will add a preset number of new inspection points around the current inspection point based on the abnormal type of the detection result of the current inspection point, with the position of the current inspection point as the center, so that users can expand the inspection range, facilitate timely grasp of the scope of abnormal situations, avoid missing other abnormal areas, and make the inspection results safe and reliable.

[0083] Specifically, the method further includes: determining the position of the next inspection point to be inspected based on the latest inspection route. This embodiment updates the inspection route in real time based on the actual inspection situation and provides inspection guidance to the user, which has strong real-time performance.

[0084] In one embodiment, an outdoor inspection method further includes:

[0085] Obtain the data of the corresponding inspection points sent by the cloud server through the intelligent inspection terminal;

[0086] Determine the time point and type of abnormality that occurred at the inspection point based on the data of the inspection point;

[0087] Determine the probability of abnormality occurring at the inspection point based on the time point;

[0088] If the probability is greater than the preset probability threshold, the user will be prompted with the probability and the type of abnormality that occurred in the inspection point history.

[0089] The outdoor inspection method provided in this embodiment obtains the historical data of the inspection point from the cloud server through the intelligent inspection terminal, and determines the probability of the abnormality occurring at the inspection point based on the analysis of the time when the abnormality occurred and the type of the abnormality, so as to prompt the user when the probability of the abnormality occurring is high, so that the user can make preparations before arriving at the inspection point, or so that the user can change the inspection method in time, and the method is highly intelligent.

[0090] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, an outdoor inspection method further includes:

[0091] When the intelligent inspection terminal detects that the inspection point has been reached, the inspection items are determined based on the inspection point;

[0092] Detecting the user's operation, and determining the completed inspection items according to the user's operation, and marking the completed inspection items with a first identifier; marking the unfinished inspection items with a second identifier;

[0093] If it is detected that the time taken for the intelligent inspection terminal to arrive at the current inspection point exceeds the preset time and there are still unfinished inspection items, a voice prompt will be given to the user.

[0094] This embodiment provides an outdoor inspection method, which distinguishes completed inspection items from unfinished inspection items through a first identifier and a second identifier, so as to facilitate users to determine completed inspection items; and detects the inspection time of the user at the current inspection point to control the time of the user's inspection process, thereby improving the inspection efficiency and making the smart inspection terminal highly intelligent.

[0095] Example 2

[0096] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the intelligent inspection terminal stores the inspection route to be inspected currently, and the inspection route includes multiple inspection points.

[0097] Outdoor inspection methods also include:

[0098] If an abnormality is found in the detection result of the current inspection point detected by the intelligent inspection terminal, the location of the current inspection point and the next inspection point on the inspection route is determined;

[0099] A certain number of new inspection points are set between the current inspection point and the next inspection point on the inspection route;

[0100] Generate new inspection routes based on newly added inspection points and existing inspection routes.

[0101] This embodiment sets up a new inspection point near the current inspection point where the abnormality occurs, so that the user can expand the inspection range, facilitate timely grasp of the scope of the abnormal situation, avoid missing other abnormal areas, and make the inspection results safe and reliable. At the same time, the new inspection point is located between the current inspection point and the next inspection point to minimize the user's movement path.

[0102] The outdoor inspection method provided in this embodiment can adjust the inspection route according to the actual inspection situation during the inspection process, rather than the conventional inspection method of providing an unchanging inspection route. This allows the inspection results to comprehensively feedback the scope of the abnormal situation while taking into account the user's usage experience, thereby reducing the user's movement path as much as possible and providing a good user experience.

[0103] Specifically, the method further includes: determining the position of the next inspection point to be inspected based on the latest inspection route. This embodiment updates the inspection route in real time based on the actual inspection situation and provides inspection guidance to the user, which has strong real-time performance.

[0104] The other contents of this embodiment are the same as those of Embodiment 1 and will not be described again here.

[0105] Example 3

[0106] In this embodiment, an outdoor inspection method further includes:

[0107] Obtain feedback data from the cloud server through the intelligent inspection terminal;

[0108] If the feedback data includes newly added inspection points, a new inspection route is generated based on the newly added inspection points and the original inspection route.

[0109] The cloud server in this embodiment can regulate the inspection route of the user. Compared with the conventional inspection method that provides an unchanging inspection route, the outdoor inspection method provided by this embodiment has a close connection between the intelligent inspection terminal and the cloud server, and can obtain feedback data from the cloud server in a timely manner. The intelligent inspection terminal can adjust the inspection route in time based on the feedback data from the cloud server, and has the function of changing the inspection route in time to deal with emergencies, with strong immediacy and high flexibility.

[0110] The other contents of this embodiment are the same as those of Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2 and will not be described again here.

[0111] Example 4

[0112] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the present application provides an outdoor inspection method, which is applied to an intelligent inspection terminal and an unmanned aerial vehicle, wherein the intelligent inspection terminal is connected to the unmanned aerial vehicle through communication, and the intelligent inspection terminal is connected to a cloud server through a network; the method comprises:

[0113] The current location is obtained through the intelligent inspection terminal, and the location of the next inspection point to be inspected is determined based on the preset inspection route;

[0114] Based on the current position and the position of the next inspection point to be inspected, a navigation route is generated on the intelligent inspection terminal to guide the user to the next inspection point to be inspected for inspection;

[0115] If the user's preset flight control instruction is obtained when the intelligent inspection terminal is used to inspect the current inspection point, the unmanned aerial vehicle is controlled to take off through the intelligent inspection terminal to perform flight inspection on the area related to the flight control instruction to obtain flight inspection data; the area actually inspected by the unmanned aerial vehicle is a part of the area selected by the unmanned aerial vehicle in the area corresponding to the flight control instruction based on its current power;

[0116] The ground inspection data, flight inspection data and the identifier of the current inspection point acquired by the intelligent inspection terminal are associated to generate inspection data corresponding to the current inspection point;

[0117] The inspection data of the current inspection point is uploaded to the cloud server through the intelligent inspection terminal.

[0118] The outdoor inspection method provided in this embodiment realizes intelligent inspection by controlling the intelligent inspection terminal and the unmanned aerial vehicle, thereby overcoming the disadvantages of manual inspection that it is completely dependent on inspection personnel and the inspection process is time-consuming and labor-intensive, reducing the dependence on manual labor during the inspection process and improving the inspection efficiency.

[0119] Secondly, based on its current power level, the UAV selects some areas that meet its current inspection capabilities in the area corresponding to the flight control command for inspection, thus avoiding the UAV being lost outdoors.

[0120] Moreover, during the inspection process, route guidance can be provided to users, without the need for users to record inspection points themselves, which is highly intelligent.

[0121] In addition, the storage method of obtaining ground inspection data through the intelligent inspection terminal itself, obtaining flight inspection data through the unmanned aerial vehicle, and finally storing the inspection data through the cloud server is convenient and easy to view later.

[0122] In one embodiment, the intelligent inspection terminal receives the flight inspection data acquired by the unmanned aerial vehicle at a certain data transmission rate; the data transmission rate is proportional to the transmission power of the unmanned aerial vehicle;

[0123] The data transfer rate is determined by the following formula:

[0124]

[0125] R t is the data transmission rate; B is the communication bandwidth; g0 is the received power at a position of 1m when transmitting data with a transmission power of 1W; P Tr,t is the transmission power of the UAV; H is the height of the UAV relative to the intelligent inspection terminal; d u,B,t is the horizontal distance between the UAV and the intelligent inspection terminal; σ 2 is the noise power;

[0126] The method further includes:

[0127] The transmission power is adjusted according to the battery power of the UAV, and the flight inspection data that has not been sent is stored in its own memory.

[0128] This embodiment adjusts the transmission power according to the power level of the unmanned aerial vehicle, thereby avoiding excessive power consumption and ensuring a balance between power consumption and data transmission speed. At the same time, the flight inspection data that has not been sent is stored in its own memory, thereby avoiding the loss of flight inspection data due to power exhaustion.

[0129] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment, an outdoor inspection method further includes:

[0130] Obtain flight inspection data through the intelligent inspection terminal and analyze the flight inspection data to determine abnormal points in the area related to the flight control instructions;

[0131] Take abnormal points as new inspection points;

[0132] Generate new inspection routes based on newly added inspection points and existing inspection routes.

[0133] The outdoor inspection method provided in this embodiment allows the user to obtain and analyze the flight inspection data from the unmanned aerial vehicle through the intelligent inspection terminal, determine the abnormal points in the area related to the flight control instructions, and inspect the conditions in the related areas, so that the user does not need to go to the inspection point in person to inspect the inspection point, saving the time consumed by manual inspection.

[0134] Moreover, unmanned aerial vehicles have the advantage of height and can obtain the specific conditions of inspection points at high altitudes. Therefore, compared with the ground inspection data obtained by the intelligent inspection terminal itself, the specific conditions of the inspection points reflected by the flight inspection data obtained by the unmanned aerial vehicle are more comprehensive and closer to the actual situation.

[0135] In addition, unmanned aerial vehicles have a higher adaptability to the terrain of inspection points. Since manual inspections are subject to more terrain restrictions, unmanned aerial vehicles can inspect inspection points located in different terrains. Therefore, the use of unmanned aerial vehicles for inspections expands the inspection range, reduces inspection blind spots, makes inspections more comprehensive, and makes inspection results safer and more reliable.

[0136] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment, an outdoor inspection method, a mark corresponding to an intelligent inspection terminal or a mark of a user currently performing inspection through the intelligent inspection terminal is set on the unmanned aerial vehicle; the marks of different intelligent inspection terminals are different, and the marks of different users performing inspections are different;

[0137] “If the posture data detected by the intelligent inspection terminal meets the preset user danger conditions, the preset rescue process will be executed”, including:

[0138] If the posture data detected by the intelligent inspection terminal meets the preset user danger condition, it is determined whether the communication between the intelligent inspection terminal and the cloud server is normal;

[0139] If the communication is judged to be normal, a rescue request is generated based on the current location through the intelligent inspection terminal and sent to the cloud server;

[0140] If the communication is judged to be abnormal, a rescue request is generated based on the current position through the intelligent inspection terminal, and the rescue request is sent to the unmanned aerial vehicle, so that the unmanned aerial vehicle flies to the preset position for assistance. At the same time, the intelligent inspection terminal periodically executes the operation of sending the rescue request to the cloud server.

[0141] This embodiment determines whether the user is in a dangerous situation through the data detected by the intelligent inspection terminal. When the communication between the intelligent inspection terminal and the cloud server is normal, the user can be rescued in time when the user is in a dangerous situation.

[0142] Moreover, even when the communication between the intelligent inspection terminal and the cloud server is abnormal, the present embodiment can also fly to the preset location through the unmanned aerial vehicle to perform a rescue operation to ensure the timeliness of the rescue and avoid missing the best rescue time. The last location of the intelligent inspection terminal is stored and recorded by the unmanned aerial vehicle, so that the search and rescue personnel can know the last location of the user or the intelligent inspection terminal in time during the rescue, thus reducing the search and rescue time in the early stage.

[0143] At the same time, the unmanned aerial vehicle is equipped with a mark corresponding to the intelligent inspection terminal or a mark of the user currently performing inspection through the intelligent inspection terminal, so that the identity information of the user in dangerous situation can be obtained in time, so as to take targeted measures for rescue according to the user.

[0144] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment, “the data detected by the intelligent inspection terminal meets the preset user danger condition” includes:

[0145] The intelligent inspection terminal detects that the height has dropped by a distance exceeding a preset value within a certain period of time; and / or

[0146] An impact exceeding a certain force is detected by the intelligent inspection terminal; and / or

[0147] The intelligent inspection terminal detects that the preset time has exceeded and the preset button for periodic pressing to confirm safety has not been pressed by the user; and / or

[0148] The intelligent inspection terminal detects that the preset help button is triggered; and / or

[0149] The intelligent inspection terminal detects that the set time has been exceeded and no displacement has occurred.

[0150] This embodiment provides a variety of specific data detected by the intelligent inspection terminal to reflect that the user is in a dangerous situation, so that the detection result of the intelligent inspection terminal is accurate and can detect in time that the user meets the dangerous conditions.

[0151] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment, an outdoor inspection method further includes:

[0152] If the intelligent inspection terminal is in a preset dangerous area and the unmanned aerial vehicle is in flight, the intelligent inspection terminal periodically sends a heartbeat connection instruction to the unmanned aerial vehicle, wherein the heartbeat connection instruction includes the position of the intelligent inspection terminal;
