[0002] Remote control driving provides an important auxiliary escape function in the scene of unmanned operation in a mine.

[0025] Figure 1A collision control method for a vehicle in a remote driving mode according to an embodiment of the present application is provided, as shown in the accompanying drawings, and the method comprises the following steps: Figure 1

[0026] In step S102, characteristic information of the vehicle is acquired when the vehicle is in the remote driving mode.

[0027] The characteristic information comprises at least one of driving control information, driving scene information, driving position information, service type information, and vehicle state information. The driving control information is related information for controlling the driving of the vehicle. The driving scene information is used to indicate the driving scene of the vehicle. The driving position information is used to indicate the driving position of the vehicle. The service type information is used to indicate the service type being performed or about to be performed by the vehicle. The vehicle state information is used to represent the current state of the vehicle. The driving control information at least comprises remote driving instructions.

[0028] The characteristic information in the above step is used to represent the driving characteristics of the vehicle in the remote driving mode in the mine environment.

[0029] The driving control information in the above step is used to control the driving of the vehicle, which can include but is not limited to remote driving instructions. The remote driving instructions can include but are not limited to acceleration instructions, deceleration instructions, steering instructions, forward instructions, and reverse instructions.

[0030] The driving scene information in the above step is used to indicate the driving scene of the vehicle in the mine environment, which can include but is not limited to loading scenes, unloading scenes, transportation scenes, and parking scenes.

[0031] The driving position information in the above step is used to indicate the current position of the vehicle, which can be represented by latitude and longitude coordinates or a position point on a map, but is not limited thereto.

[0032] The service type information in the above step is used to indicate the service type being performed or about to be performed by the vehicle in the mine environment, such as loading, unloading, transportation, and parking.

[0033] The vehicle state information in the above step is used to represent the current state of the vehicle, which can include but is not limited to loading states, unloading states, transportation states, and parking states.

[0034] ​In an optional embodiment, when the vehicle is in the remote driving mode, the remote driving system of the vehicle can receive the driving control information sent by the remote driving object; the environment around the vehicle can be perceived through the perception system to obtain the driving scene information in the feature information, wherein the perception system of the vehicle can at least include a sensor device; the driving position information in the feature information can be obtained through the global positioning system (GPS), including the latitude and longitude coordinates, the altitude, etc.; the map information sent by the cloud platform can be received; the vehicle-mounted device can be accessed to obtain the current service type of the vehicle, such as loading, unloading, transportation, etc. When obtaining the vehicle state information, the vehicle-mounted sensor can be accessed to obtain the vehicle state information.

[0035] In step S104, the target anti-collision strategy is determined according to the feature information of the vehicle.

[0036] The target anti-collision strategy in the above steps is obtained by analyzing the feature information of the vehicle, and is the anti-collision strategy that should be used by the vehicle at present. The anti-collision strategy can be represented by an anti-collision safety parameter, which can include but is not limited to an anti-collision safety distance, etc.

[0037] In an optional embodiment, the mapping relationship between the feature information of the vehicle and the target anti-collision strategy can be set in advance. After obtaining the feature information of the vehicle, the target anti-collision strategy corresponding to the feature information of the vehicle is found according to the mapping relationship, so as to determine the target anti-collision strategy. Exemplarily, the vehicle scene information can be selected as the feature information of the vehicle, and the mapping relationship between the feature information of the vehicle and the target anti-collision strategy can be set as: the safety protection distance corresponding to the loading scene is 40 meters, the safety protection distance corresponding to the unloading scene is 50 meters, and the safety protection distance corresponding to the running scene is 20 meters. After obtaining the feature information of the vehicle, the corresponding target anti-collision strategy can be determined according to the driving scene information in the feature information.

[0038] It should be noted that the specific numerical values involved in the above examples are only examples, and the specific data used in actual applications can not be limited thereto.

[0039] In another optional embodiment, according to the vehicle state information, it is determined whether the vehicle is in an emergency situation, such as vehicle out of control, encountering an obstacle, etc.; if so, the target anti-collision strategy is to immediately take measures to avoid collision; if not, the surrounding environment and road conditions can be analyzed according to the driving scene information and driving position information to determine whether the vehicle is in a collision risk area; if the vehicle is in a collision risk area, the target anti-collision strategy is to increase the safety protection distance to ensure that the vehicle is not collided; if the vehicle is not in a collision risk area, the target anti-collision strategy is to shorten the safety protection distance to facilitate smooth passing of the vehicle.

[0040] Step S106, determining the driving planning trajectory of the vehicle based on the target anti-collision strategy and the driving control information of the vehicle.

[0041] The driving planning trajectory of the vehicle in the above steps is determined according to the characteristic information of the vehicle, the target anti-collision strategy and the driving control information, and is the driving path of the vehicle in the mine environment. The driving planning path includes information such as how the vehicle should drive, when to change lanes, when to slow down or speed up, etc., to ensure the safety and smoothness of the vehicle driving in the mine environment.

[0042] In an optional embodiment, the driving planning trajectory of the vehicle can be determined using a remote control driving algorithm based on the target anti-collision strategy and the driving control information of the vehicle. The remote control driving algorithm models and perceives the surrounding environment according to the map information, obstacle information, positioning information, etc. in the driving control information. Then, combined with the remote control driving instructions in the driving control information, the driving target and the state to be reached are determined. Then, according to the anti-collision safety parameters in the target anti-collision strategy, considering the position, size, speed, etc. of the surrounding obstacles, a safe driving trajectory is planned as the driving planning trajectory of the vehicle.

[0043] In another optional embodiment, the driving planning trajectory of the vehicle can be predicted by a driving planning trajectory prediction model. The previously existing target anti-collision strategy, driving control information and driving planning trajectory can be used as training data to train the driving planning trajectory prediction model, so that the driving planning trajectory prediction model has the ability to predict the driving planning trajectory of the vehicle according to the target anti-collision strategy and the driving control information. Then, the target anti-collision strategy and the driving control information of the vehicle are input into the trained driving planning trajectory prediction model, so that the driving planning trajectory prediction model outputs the predicted driving planning trajectory.

[0044] Step S108, controlling the vehicle to drive according to the driving planning trajectory.

[0045] In an optional embodiment, the vehicle travels according to the path and speed determined by the travel planning trajectory, and during the travel, the actual position and state of the vehicle are monitored and compared with the travel planning trajectory, and when there is a difference with the travel planning trajectory, the speed and direction of the vehicle are adjusted in time to ensure that the vehicle travels stably according to the planning trajectory.

[0046] In the embodiment of the present application, when the vehicle is in the remote driving mode, the characteristic information of the vehicle is obtained, wherein the characteristic information includes at least one of the following: travel control information, travel scene information, travel position information, service type information, and vehicle state information; the target anti-collision strategy is determined according to the characteristic information of the vehicle; the travel planning trajectory of the vehicle is determined based on the target anti-collision strategy and the travel control information of the vehicle; and the vehicle is controlled to travel according to the travel planning trajectory. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, the target anti-collision strategy is determined through fine-grained analysis of the obtained characteristic information of the vehicle, and then the travel trajectory information for controlling the vehicle to travel is further determined based on the target anti-collision strategy and the travel control information of the vehicle, the travel planning trajectory that meets the current vehicle characteristic information and travel control information is determined, and the vehicle is controlled to travel according to the travel planning trajectory, thereby achieving the technical effect of reasonably controlling the anti-collision of the vehicle in the remote driving mode, and further solving the technical problem that it is difficult to control the anti-collision of the vehicle in the remote driving mode in the mine environment.

[0047] Optionally, the travel control information further includes at least one of the following: perception information, map information.

[0048] The perception information in the above step is obtained by the vehicle through a sensor, and can include, but is not limited to, the position, speed, and moving direction of other vehicles, pedestrians, and obstacles around the vehicle in the mine environment.

[0049] The map information in the above step is map data around the position where the vehicle is located in the mine environment, and can include, but is not limited to, road information and traffic signs.

[0050] Optionally, the target anti-collision strategy is determined according to the characteristic information of the vehicle, including: performing delay detection on any kind of travel control information to obtain a delay duration, wherein the delay duration is used to indicate the duration between the sending time of the travel control information and the receiving time of the travel control information received by the vehicle; in response to the delay duration being greater than a duration threshold, determining to switch the target anti-collision strategy from a current anti-collision mode to a first anti-collision mode, wherein the safety protection distance corresponding to the first anti-collision mode is greater than the safety protection distance of the current anti-collision mode, or the first anti-collision mode is used to maintain the current position of the vehicle unchanged.

[0051] The time length threshold in the above step is a time length reference value set in advance, which can be used to compare with the delay time length to determine whether the delay time length is abnormal, and further determine the target anti-collision strategy.

[0052] The safety protection distance in the above step is set to ensure the safety of the vehicle, and the safety distance between the vehicle and the obstacle. In the case that the distance between the vehicle and the obstacle is greater than the safety protection distance, the vehicle can normally drive, and in the case that the distance between the vehicle and the obstacle is less than the safety protection distance, the vehicle needs to stop urgently. The safety protection distance can change with the change of the anti-collision mode.

[0053] In an optional embodiment, when detecting the delay of the driving control information, a timestamp recording the sending time of the driving control information can be added to the driving control information when sending the driving control information. When the vehicle receives the driving control information, the receiving time can be subtracted from the sending time recorded in the timestamp to calculate the delay time length.

[0054] The delay time length is compared with the time length threshold. If the delay time length is greater than the time length threshold, it can be considered that the network quality in the current mine environment is poor, resulting in excessive data transmission delay. In this case, the vehicle receiving the driving control information sent by the driving control system is likely to have a receiving delay, which causes the vehicle to fail to make driving behavior in time, and there is a safety hazard.

[0055] Therefore, the anti-collision mode should be adjusted in time at this time to reduce the safety hazard as much as possible, and the target anti-collision strategy is determined as switching the current anti-collision mode to the first anti-collision mode to increase the safety protection distance or control the vehicle to stop urgently, thereby improving the safety of the vehicle under network fluctuation.

[0056] Optionally, the target anti-collision strategy is determined according to the characteristic information of the vehicle, including: detecting the delay of any kind of driving control information to obtain a delay time length, wherein the delay time length is used to indicate the time length between the sending time of the driving control information and the receiving time of the vehicle receiving the driving control information; in response to the delay time length being less than a time length threshold, determining a preset anti-collision strategy corresponding to at least one of the following information: the driving scene indicated by the driving scene information of the vehicle, the driving position indicated by the driving position information, the service type indicated by the service type information, and the vehicle state indicated by the vehicle state information; and determining the preset anti-collision strategy as the target anti-collision strategy.

[0057] The preset anti-collision strategy in the above step is a preset anti-collision strategy, which has a corresponding relationship with the driving scene, the driving position, the service type, and the vehicle state. The preset anti-collision strategy can be determined by any one of the driving scene, the driving position, the service type, and the vehicle state, or by any multiple of the driving scene, the driving position, the service type, and the vehicle state.

[0058] In an optional embodiment, after determining the driving control information, the time delay duration is compared with the time duration threshold value. If the time delay duration is less than the time duration threshold value, it can be considered that the network in the current mine environment is good and there is no time delay in data transmission. The preset anti-collision strategy can be further determined according to the driving scene, driving position, service type and vehicle state.

[0059] A mapping relationship between the vehicle state and the preset anti-collision strategy is established, and the loading state, unloading state, transportation state and parking state are respectively mapped to different preset anti-collision strategies.

[0060] The driving scene, driving position or service type can be used to determine the vehicle state. In the case that the driving position of the vehicle is located in the loading area, the driving scene is a loading scene, or the service type is a loading service, it can be determined that the vehicle state is a loading state. In the case that the driving position of the vehicle is located in the unloading area, the driving scene is an unloading scene, or the service type is an unloading service, it can be determined that the vehicle state is an unloading state. In the case that the driving position of the vehicle is located in the transportation area, the driving scene is a transportation scene, or the service type is a transportation service, it can be determined that the vehicle state is a transportation state. In the case that the driving position of the vehicle is located in the parking area, the driving scene is a parking scene, or the service type is a parking service, it can be determined that the vehicle state is a parking state. The vehicle state can also be directly determined by accessing the vehicle-mounted sensor.

[0061] After determining the vehicle state, the preset anti-collision strategy corresponding to the vehicle state is determined according to the mapping relationship between the vehicle state and the preset anti-collision strategy, and the preset anti-collision strategy is determined as the target anti-collision strategy.

[0062] Optionally, in the case that the driving control information includes the perception information, the target anti-collision strategy is determined according to the characteristic information of the vehicle, including: based on the perception information of the vehicle, determining that the vehicle satisfies the use condition of the anti-collision mode corresponding to the target service type, and switching the target anti-collision strategy from the current anti-collision mode to a second anti-collision mode, wherein the use condition of the anti-collision mode is used to at least indicate that the distance between the vehicle and the interactive object corresponding to the target service type is within a distance threshold value range, and the second anti-collision mode is the anti-collision mode corresponding to the target service type.

[0063] The target service type in the above step is the service type corresponding to the target anti-collision strategy. After determining that the service type of the vehicle is the target service type, the vehicle also needs to satisfy the use condition of the anti-collision mode corresponding to the target service type, so as to switch the anti-collision mode according to the target anti-collision strategy.

[0064] The interactive object in the above step can be other vehicles, equipment, pedestrians, obstacles and the like around the vehicle in the mine environment.

[0065] The distance threshold in the above step is a preset distance, which can be preset according to actual application conditions, and is used for comparison with the distance between the vehicle and the target object, so as to determine whether the vehicle meets the use condition of the anti-collision mode corresponding to the target service type.

[0066] In an optional embodiment, the current service type of the vehicle is determined, and the current service type is taken as the target service type. For example, the target service type can be a loading type, and the interactive object can be a shovel. The distance threshold corresponding to the loading type is determined, and the distance between the vehicle and the interactive object is determined according to the perception information of the vehicle. Then, the distance between the vehicle and the interactive object is compared with the distance threshold. If the distance between the vehicle and the interactive object is less than the distance threshold, it can be determined that the vehicle is executing the loading type service in the loading area, that is, it is determined that the vehicle meets the use condition of the anti-collision mode corresponding to the loading type.

[0067] The target anti-collision strategy is determined to be switched from the current anti-collision mode to a second anti-collision mode, and the second anti-collision mode is an anti-collision mode corresponding to the loading service. Since the vehicle executes the loading type service in the loading area, it will work in an environment with more falling earth and rocks. Therefore, the second anti-collision mode can be a mode with reduced anti-collision requirements, that is, the anti-collision requirements are lower than those of the current anti-collision mode, so that the vehicle can continue to execute the loading type service even if falling earth and rocks are detected when executing the loading type service, reducing the interference of falling earth and rocks.

[0068] Optionally, in the case where the driving control information includes the perception information, the target anti-collision strategy is determined according to the characteristic information of the vehicle, including: determining the working state of the perception system of the vehicle according to the perception information; and in response to the perception system being in an abnormal working state, switching the target anti-collision strategy from the current anti-collision mode to a third anti-collision mode, wherein the anti-collision requirements of the third anti-collision mode are lower than those of the current anti-collision mode.

[0069] The working state in the above step can include a normal working state and an abnormal working state, and the target anti-collision strategy corresponding to different working states is different.

[0070] The anti-collision requirements in the above step can be represented by a safety protection distance, but are not limited thereto. The larger the safety protection distance, the higher the anti-collision requirements, and the smaller the safety protection distance, the lower the anti-collision requirements.

[0071] In an alternative embodiment, it can be determined according to the perception information whether the vehicle perception system is in an abnormal working state. Illustratively, the driver of the remote control vehicle can view the perception information provided by the perception system through the interface of the remote control system, and at the same time, view the situation of the working site of the vehicle through the video of the interface. If the perception information indicates that the vehicle is stopped due to an obstacle, but the video shows no obstacle, it indicates that the perception system is malfunctioning and is in an abnormal working state.

[0072] At this time, the driver of the remote control vehicle can send a mode switching instruction to the vehicle to control the target anti-collision strategy of the vehicle to switch from the current anti-collision mode to the third anti-collision mode, i.e., enter the emergency mode, and lower the anti-collision requirement. In the emergency anti-collision mode, the anti-collision capability for small obstacles such as stones is reduced while the anti-collision capability for the vehicle is retained, so that the vehicle can normally travel and complete the evacuation in the presence of small obstacles such as stones, meeting the escape needs of remote control driving.

[0073] Optionally, the method further comprises: in response to the vehicle receiving the mode switching instruction, switching the target anti-collision strategy of the vehicle from the current anti-collision mode to a fourth anti-collision mode, wherein the anti-collision requirement of the fourth anti-collision mode is lower or higher than that of the current anti-collision mode.

[0074] The mode switching instruction in the above steps can be actively sent by the driver of the remote control vehicle. When the driver of the remote control vehicle observes that the safety protection distance of the current anti-collision mode is inappropriate, he can operate on the remote control system to generate a mode switching instruction and send it to the vehicle to instruct the vehicle to switch the current anti-collision mode.

[0075] In an alternative embodiment, the safety protection distance is generally set to be conservative, and the driver of the remote control vehicle can modify the safety protection distance when he assesses that it is feasible.
