Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of laser detection technology, and in particular to a laser radar. Background Art

[0002] LiDAR is a radar system that emits laser beams to detect the position, speed and other characteristic quantities of a target. Its working principle is to first emit detection light to the target object, and then receive the echo light reflected from the target. After appropriate processing, relevant information about the target can be obtained, such as target distance, direction, altitude, speed, attitude, and even shape parameters.

[0003] Generally, a laser radar includes a shell, a transceiver module and a scanning module. Among them, the shell is the mounting base of the remaining structures in the laser radar. The transceiver module is used to emit detection light to detect the target object through the detection light, and to receive the echo light formed by the target object reflecting the detection light. The scanning module includes a scanning element that can rotate relative to the shell, such as a micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) galvanometer, which is used to receive and deflect the detection light emitted by the transceiver module, thereby continuously changing the emission direction of the detection light to form a specific detection field of view, so as to realize the detection of the target object in the detection field of view; accordingly, the scanning element is also used to receive and deflect the echo light so that the echo light is directed to the transceiver module. Summary of the invention

[0004] In the related technology, the laser radar uses external calibration plates and other components to calibrate the angular position of the scanning element scanning; for example, by placing the calibration plate at different angles in the laser radar detection field of view, the relationship between the feedback signal of the scanning element (such as the feedback voltage signal) and the direction angle of the calibration plate relative to the laser radar (such as the horizontal azimuth or vertical pitch angle) is calibrated, and then the mapping relationship between the feedback signal of the scanning element and the direction angle of the detection light (that is, the direction angle of the scanning element) can be obtained. However, as the working time increases, the feedback sensitivity of the scanning element will change, that is, the feedback signal amplitude under the unit rotation angle of the scanning element will change; if the laser radar still determines the direction angle corresponding to the target object based on the mapping relationship calibrated before leaving the factory, the measured direction angle will be greatly different from the actual direction angle of the target object, which will eventually manifest as a decrease in the control accuracy of the laser radar scanning process in the detection field of view.

[0005] Taking the vehicle-mounted LiDAR as an example, if the sensitivity of the LiDAR changes, the car needs to be driven to a preset calibration scene, or the LiDAR needs to be removed separately and placed in the above calibration scene to recalibrate the scanning angle position of the scanning element. This process relies on external calibration components and calibration scenes. The re-calibration process of the scanning angle of the scanning element is relatively cumbersome and costly.

[0006] The present application aims to provide a laser radar to improve the current situation in related technologies where the laser radar needs to rely on external calibration components and calibration scenes when recalibrating the scanning angle of the scanning element, which leads to a cumbersome calibration process.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more clear, the embodiments of the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] When the following description refers to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present application. Instead, they are only examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present application as detailed in the attached claims.

[0028] In the related technology, the laser radar uses external calibration plates and other components to calibrate the angular position of the scanning element scanning; for example, by placing the calibration plate at different angles in the laser radar detection field of view, the relationship between the feedback signal of the calibrated scanning element (such as the feedback voltage signal) and the direction angle of the calibration plate relative to the laser radar (such as the horizontal azimuth or vertical pitch angle) is calibrated, and then the mapping relationship between the feedback signal of the scanning element and the direction angle of the detection light (that is, the direction angle of the scanning element) can be obtained. However, as the working time increases, the feedback sensitivity of the scanning element will change, that is, the feedback signal amplitude under the unit rotation angle of the scanning element will change; if the laser radar still determines the direction angle corresponding to the target object based on the mapping relationship calibrated before leaving the factory, the measured direction angle will be greatly different from the actual direction angle of the target object, which will eventually manifest as a decrease in the control accuracy of the laser radar scanning process in the detection field of view.

[0029] Taking the vehicle-mounted LiDAR as an example, if the sensitivity of the LiDAR changes, the car needs to be driven to a preset calibration scene, or the LiDAR needs to be removed separately and placed in the above calibration scene to recalibrate the scanning angle position of the scanning element. This process relies on external calibration components and calibration scenes. The re-calibration process of the scanning angle of the scanning element is relatively cumbersome and costly.

[0030] Based on this, an embodiment of the present application provides a laser radar to improve the current situation in the related art where the laser radar needs to rely on calibration components and calibration scenes outside the laser radar when recalibrating the scanning angle of the scanning element, which leads to a cumbersome calibration process.

[0031] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2, which respectively show a stereoscopic schematic diagram and an exploded schematic diagram of a laser radar 1 provided in some embodiments of the present application, wherein the laser radar 1 includes a shell module 100, a transceiver module 200, a scanning module 300 and a calibration module.

Next, the specific structure of the laser radar 1 is described in detail in conjunction with the drawings.

[0033] For the above-mentioned housing module 100, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , which is the mounting base for the other components in the laser radar 1, and also constitutes a protective structure for the other components in the laser radar 1.

The lens 120 is arranged at the window 102, which is used to perform optical processing on the detection light and the echo light. At the same time, the lens 120 blocks the above-mentioned window 102, thereby realizing the sealing of the base shell 110.

[0034] Regarding the aforementioned base shell 110, please continue to refer to Figure 2The base shell 110 includes a bottom shell 111 and a top shell 112, and the bottom shell 111 and the top shell 112 are connected and fixed along the thickness direction Z of the laser radar 1 to define the above-mentioned receiving chamber 101; wherein, the "thickness direction" described in the present application document means that when the laser radar 1 is installed on a movable device (such as a car), the end close to the mounting surface of the movable device is the bottom, and the end away from the mounting surface is the top, and the thickness direction is a direction determined based on the bottom and the top, such as the direction determined by one of the bottom and the top pointing to the other. The bottom shell 111 includes a bottom wall 1111, a first side wall 1112, a second side wall 1113 and a third side wall 1114. The bottom wall 1111 is generally a flat plate-like structure, and along the first preset direction X shown in the figure, the first side wall 1112 is arranged at one end of the bottom wall 1111; wherein, the first preset direction X is a direction perpendicular to the above-mentioned thickness direction Z. One end of the second side wall 1113 is connected to the first side wall 1112, and the other end extends away from the first side wall 1112 along the first preset direction X, and the height of the first side wall 1112 is smaller than that of the bottom wall 1111 at a position farther away from the first side wall 1112. One end of the third side wall 1114 is connected to the first side wall 1112, and the other end also extends away from the first side wall 1112 along the first preset direction X, and the height of the first side wall 1112 is smaller than that of the bottom wall 1111 at a position farther away from the first side wall 1112; the third side wall 1114 and the second side wall 1113 are arranged opposite to each other along the second preset direction Y shown in the figure, wherein the second preset direction Y is perpendicular to the thickness direction Z and the first preset direction X respectively. The bottom shell 111 does not have a side wall on the side away from the first side wall 1112, so that an opening is formed on this side to facilitate the assembly of the transceiver module 200, the scanning module 300 and the circuit board and other components.

[0035] The top shell 112 includes a top wall 1121, a fourth side wall 1122, a fifth side wall 1123 and a sixth side wall 1124. The top wall 1121 is also generally a flat plate-like structure, and is arranged opposite to the bottom wall 1111 along the thickness direction Z. Along the first preset direction X shown in the figure, the fourth side wall 1122 is arranged at one end of the top wall 1121 away from the first side wall 1112, and the fourth side wall 1122 is arranged opposite to the first side wall 1112 along the first preset direction X. The fourth side wall 1122 fills the open area of ​​the bottom shell 111 to block the area. One end of the fifth side wall 1123 is connected to the fourth side wall 1122, and the other end extends away from the fourth side wall 1122 along the first preset direction X, and the height of the fifth side wall 1123 is smaller than that of the top wall 1121 at a position farther away from the fourth side wall 1122. The fifth side wall 1123 and the second side wall 1113 are complementary fitting structures, and the fifth side wall 1123 and the second side wall 1113 are spliced ​​together to form a side wall of the base shell 110 located between the first side wall 1112 and the fourth side wall 1122. One end of the sixth side wall 1124 is connected to the fourth side wall 1122, and the other end also extends away from the fourth side wall 1122 along the first preset direction X, and the height of the sixth side wall 1124 is smaller at a position farther away from the fourth side wall 1122 than the height of the top wall 1121. The sixth side wall 1124 and the fifth side wall 1123 are arranged opposite to each other along the second preset direction Y shown in the figure, and the sixth side wall 1124 and the third side wall 1114 are complementary fitting structures, and the sixth side wall 1124 and the third side wall 1114 are spliced ​​together to form another side wall of the base shell 110 located between the first side wall 1112 and the fourth side wall 1122. The top shell 112 does not have a side wall on the side away from the fourth side wall 1122, so that an opening is formed on this side; the first side wall 1112 is filled in the opening to block the opening. It should be noted that the "second preset direction" described in this application document is perpendicular to the first preset direction X; for example, in this embodiment, the second preset direction Y is a horizontal direction perpendicular to the first preset direction. Of course, in other embodiments, the second preset direction Y can also be appropriately changed on this basis, and this application does not limit this.

[0036] The bottom shell 111 and the top shell 112 are spliced ​​along the thickness direction Z shown in the figure to define the above-mentioned receiving cavity 101. The bottom shell 111 is provided with the above-mentioned window 102 on the first side wall 1112, and the window 102 passes through the first side wall 1112, thereby connecting the above-mentioned receiving cavity 101 with the external environment of the laser radar 1.

[0037] For the aforementioned lens 120, see Figure 3 and Figure 4, which respectively show a three-dimensional schematic diagram of the lens 120 and a cross-sectional schematic diagram along the AA line, wherein the lens 120 includes a lens barrel 121 and a lens 122. The lens barrel 121 is installed at the above-mentioned window 102, and is spaced apart from the above-mentioned scanning module 300 along the above-mentioned first preset direction X, and is provided with a mounting hole 1211 extending along the above-mentioned first preset direction X. The lens 122 is installed in the mounting hole 1211. The lens 120 as a whole blocks the window 102, so that the housing module 100 forms a structure sealed to the outside. In this embodiment, the above-mentioned mounting hole 1211 includes a first cavity 1212 and a second cavity 1213 sequentially arranged along the first preset direction X. Among them, the first cavity 1212 is a cavity close to one side of the receiving cavity 101, one end of which is located in communication with the receiving cavity 101 and communicates with the receiving cavity 101, and the other end extends toward the above-mentioned window 102 or passes through the window 102. The second cavity 1213 is a cavity away from the receiving cavity 101, one end of which is connected to the first cavity 1212, and the other end is located outside the base shell 110; when observed along the first preset direction X, the edge contour of the first cavity 1212 is located within the edge contour of the second cavity 1213, that is, the second cavity 1213 is a larger cavity. The lens 120 includes two lenses 122, which are a first lens 1221 and a second lens 1222; wherein the first lens 1221 is installed in the above-mentioned first cavity 1212, and the second lens 1222 is installed in the second cavity 1213. After being deflected by the scanning module, the detection light generated by the above-mentioned transceiver module 200 passes through the first lens 1221 and the second lens 1222 in sequence to be emitted to the outside of the laser radar 1, and then detects the surrounding environment; that is, the second lens 1222 also constitutes the window piece of the laser radar 1.

[0038] For the above transceiver module 200, please refer to Figure 2, which is accommodated in the accommodating cavity 101 and installed in the housing module 100, for example, the transceiver module 200 can be fixed to the above-mentioned bottom wall 1111. The transceiver module 200 includes a transmitting module and a receiving module. The transmitting module is used to generate detection light, which is used to detect the target object. The transmitting module includes at least one laser. For example, in some embodiments, the transmitting module includes a laser; for example, in other embodiments, the transmitting module includes more than two lasers, and the more than two lasers are arranged according to a preset rule. The receiving module is used to receive the echo light formed by the target object reflecting the detection light, and perform photoelectric conversion to obtain the corresponding electrical signal, so that the signal processing module of the laser radar 1 can obtain the distance, speed and reflectivity of the target object relative to the laser radar 1 based on the above-mentioned electrical signal processing. In some embodiments, the receiving module may include a silicon photomultiplier tube, which has a high dynamic range and can detect echo light signals with relatively weak energy; of course, in other embodiments of the present application, the receiving module may also include other types of photodetectors, as long as it can receive the echo light and complete the photoelectric conversion.

[0039] For the above scanning module 300, please continue to refer to Figure 2 , the scanning module 300 is used to scan the detection light emitted by the transceiver module 200 so that the detection light can form a specific detection field of view. In this embodiment, the scanning module 300 includes a scanning element (not shown in the figure), which is used to receive the detection light and deflect it so that the detection light is emitted outside the laser radar. The scanning element can rotate relative to the shell module 100, so that the emission direction of the detection light changes continuously after being reflected by it, so that the above-mentioned detection field of view can be achieved. Optionally, the scanning element may include a two-dimensional galvanometer, such as a two-dimensional MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical System) galvanometer, so as to achieve two-dimensional scanning. Of course, in other embodiments of the present application, the scanning element may also include other types of scanning devices; for example, in some other embodiments, the scanning element may be a combination of a one-dimensional galvanometer and a multi-faceted rotating mirror, and for example, in other other embodiments, the transmitting module may include a plurality of lasers in a linear array, and the scanning element includes a one-dimensional rotating mirror; it is not limited here one by one, as long as it is ensured that the scanning module 300 can complete the scanning of the detection light, preferably, the above-mentioned two-dimensional scanning solution can be adopted. In addition, the scanning module 300 also includes a scanning drive module, which is connected to the scanning element and is used to drive the scanning element to rotate. In this embodiment, the drive module includes a coil and a magnet. Specifically, the coil is integrated into the above-mentioned two-dimensional galvanometer; the magnet is arranged adjacent to the two-dimensional galvanometer, and the two-dimensional galvanometer is in the magnetic field formed by the magnet; when the coil is energized according to a preset rule, it will rotate under the action of the magnetic field.

[0040] In order to obtain the current scanning direction angle of the two-dimensional galvanometer, the two-dimensional galvanometer can be integrated with a sensor for detecting the direction angle, such as a piezoresistive sensor. Since the direction angles scanned by the two-dimensional galvanometer are different, the feedback voltage signals output by the piezoresistive sensor are also different, so the mapping relationship between the two can be established through the calibration process described above; in this way, during the working process of the laser radar after leaving the factory, the feedback voltage signal output by the piezoresistive sensor can be used to determine the current scanning direction angle of the two-dimensional galvanometer.

[0041] However, as the working time increases, the feedback sensitivity of the scanning element will change, that is, the amplitude of the feedback signal (such as the above-mentioned feedback voltage signal) under the condition of unit rotation angle of the scanning element will change; if the laser radar still determines the direction angle corresponding to the target object based on the mapping relationship calibrated before leaving the factory, the measured direction angle will be significantly different from the actual direction angle of the target object, which will eventually manifest as a decrease in the control accuracy of the laser radar during the scanning process within the detection field of view. To overcome this shortcoming, the laser radar 1 provided in the embodiment of the present application also includes a calibration module 400, and the setting of the calibration module 400 provides a structural basis for the secondary calibration of the scanning element, which is conducive to improving the current situation of the cumbersome secondary calibration process of the laser radar in the related technology.

[0042] For calibration module 400, please refer to Figure 5 , which shows a three-dimensional schematic diagram of the calibration module 400, and combined with Figures 1 to 4 , the calibration module 400 is installed on the shell module 100, and includes a reflector 420 located in the detection field of view of the laser radar 1. The reflector 420 is used to reflect the detection light that is reflected by the scanning module 300 and then directed to the reflector 420 to form a corresponding echo light, so that the laser radar 1 can determine the angular position of the reflector 420 in the detection field of view. Considering that the above-mentioned lens 120 is actually designed and selected based on the detection field of view requirements of the laser radar 1, the calibration module 400 is installed on the above-mentioned lens 120 in this embodiment. This setting can easily ensure that the reflector 420 is located in the detection field of view of the laser radar 1. The following is an explanation using this setting as an example; however, it should be understood that in other embodiments of the present application, the calibration module 400 can also be installed on the base shell 110, as long as it has the above-mentioned reflector located in the detection field of view of the laser radar 1.

[0043] Specifically, the calibration module 400 includes a fixing part 410 and the above-mentioned reflecting part 420. The fixing part 410 is installed on the bottom wall of the above-mentioned second cavity 1213, and includes a first part 411 located on the bottom wall of the second cavity 1213 and a second part 412 located outside the bottom wall of the second cavity 1213; one end of the second part 412 is connected to the first part 411, and the other end extends to be opposite to the first cavity 1212. More specifically, when the fixing part 410 is projected along the above-mentioned first preset direction X, the first part 411 is located on the bottom wall of the second cavity 1213, and the end of the second part 412 away from the first part 411 is located in the first cavity 1212. The second part 412 includes a reference area 4121 located in the detection field of view of the laser radar 1, and the reference area 4121 is used to set the above-mentioned reflecting part 420, thereby effectively ensuring that the reflecting part 420 is also located in the detection field of view of the laser radar 1.

[0044] As for the fixing method of the fixing part 410, it is actually diverse. For example, in some embodiments, the fixing part 410 and the lens barrel 121 can be fixed by bonding. Specifically, the first part 411 is a roughly rectangular plate-shaped structure, which is provided with a plurality of positioning holes 4111; the bottom wall of the second cavity 1213 is provided with a plurality of positioning posts (not shown in the figure), and each positioning post extends into a corresponding positioning hole 4111, thereby realizing the positioning of the fixing part 410 and the lens barrel 121. Preferably, two positioning holes 4111 and two positioning posts can be provided respectively, wherein one positioning hole 4111 is a circular hole and the other positioning hole 4111 is a waist-shaped hole; wherein the width of the waist-shaped hole is equal to the diameter of the positioning post, and the length of the waist-shaped hole is greater than the diameter of the positioning post. One positioning post cooperates with the circular positioning hole 4111, and the other positioning post cooperates with the waist-shaped positioning hole 4111. The setting of the waist-shaped hole can provide a certain redundancy to avoid that it cannot cooperate normally with the corresponding positioning post. A first sink 4112 is provided on one side of the first part 411 facing the bottom wall of the second cavity 1213, and the first sink 4112 can be used to contain glue. Before the fixing part 410 is assembled to the lens barrel 121, glue can be dispensed in the first sink 4112; then, the fixing part 410 is positioned and installed to the bottom wall of the second cavity 1213 based on the positioning hole 4111 and the positioning column; thereafter, the position and posture of the fixing part 410 are appropriately adjusted to the desired state, and the fixing of the fixing part 410 can be completed by waiting for the glue to solidify.

[0045] Preferably, the reflectivity of the reference area 4121 is lower than the reflectivity of the reflecting portion. For example, the reflectivity of the reference area 4121 is lower than the first threshold, and the reflectivity of the reflecting portion is higher than the second threshold, and the second threshold is higher than the first threshold, so that the reflectivity of the reflecting portion 420 is higher than the reflectivity of the reference area 4121. This setting is conducive to constructing the neighborhood of the reflecting portion 420 into a reference area 4121 with low reflectivity. The reference area 4121 can block other target objects in the field of view area, avoid other target objects in the field of view area affecting the detection of the reflecting portion 420, and build a relatively pure detection environment for the reflecting portion 420; while the reflecting portion 420 is located in this area as an object with higher reflectivity, and has a reflectivity difference with the reference area 4121. In this way, the laser radar 1 can more easily identify the reflecting portion 420 when acquiring point cloud data. Optionally, the difference between the second threshold and the first threshold is greater than 50%; in this way, the reflective portion 420 and the reference area 4121 of the fixed portion 410 will have a significant difference in reflectivity, which is conducive to better distinguishing the outline of the reflective portion 420. For example, in some embodiments, the first threshold may be less than 30%, such as 25%, 20%, 10%, 5%, etc.; the second threshold may be greater than 80%, such as 85%, 90%, 92%, 95%, etc. It should be noted that the "reflectivity" described in this application document refers to a parameter commonly used in the field of laser radar detection to characterize the reflectivity. Generally, the surface reflectivity of the Kodak whiteboard (calibration whiteboard) is defined as 100%, and the reflectivity of other objects can be converted proportionally based on it.

[0046] As for the structural style of the reflection part 420, in fact, it is diverse. It can be a reflective material layer arranged in the above-mentioned reference area 4121, such as a reflective coating, or it can be a reflective mirror arranged in the above-mentioned reference area 4121, such as a silver mirror, an aluminum mirror, or it can be a reflective film arranged in the above-mentioned reference area, such as a high-reflective reflective film used in road traffic. The present application does not specifically limit the specific structural style of the reflection part 420, as long as it is located in the detection field of view of the laser radar 1 and has the function of reflecting the detection light. The reflection part 420 provided in some embodiments of the present application is explained below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0047] In some embodiments, the reflective portion 420 includes a reflective material layer disposed in the reference region 4121. For example, the reflective material layer may be a high reflectivity material layer formed on the surface of the reference region 4121 by spraying, electroplating or other processes; wherein the high reflectivity material layer may include a titanium reflective film, a silicon reflective film, or a reflective film based on titanium and silicon. Thus, when the detection light is emitted from the scanning module 300 to the reflective portion 420, an echo light is also formed due to the reflection of the reflective portion 420, and the echo light is further received by the transceiver module of the laser radar.

[0048] It should be noted that when the reflective material layer forms a reflective mirror surface, the reflection direction of the emitting material layer can be regarded as a single one, unlike diffuse reflection, which forms reflected echo light in all directions; at this time, the angle of the plane where the reflective material layer is located is very important. Specifically, the reflective material layer needs to be configured so that the optical path of the detection light emitted from the scanning module 300 to the reflective material layer is perpendicular to the reflective material layer; in this way, the echo light formed by the reflection of the reflective material layer can return along the original optical path and be received by the transceiver module 200, thereby forming a corresponding point cloud.

[0049] For example, see Figure 5 In some applications, the reference area 4121 is provided with a boss 4122 on the side facing the scanning module 300, and a reflective material layer is provided on the top surface of the boss 4122. The top surface is configured such that the detection light emitted from the scanning module 300 to the boss 4122 is perpendicular to the top surface of the boss 4122; thus, the detection light will be incident vertically on the reflective material layer and return to the transceiver module 200 along the original optical path. For another example, in some other applications, the reference area 4121 is provided with a groove (not shown in the figure) on the side facing the scanning module 300, and a reflective material layer is provided on the bottom surface of the groove; wherein the bottom surface is configured such that the optical path of the detection light emitted from the scanning module 300 to the groove is perpendicular to the bottom surface; thus, the detection light will also be incident vertically on the reflective material layer and return to the transceiver module 200 along the original optical path. Preferably, in order to facilitate having a better reference surface when forming the top surface of the boss 4122 or the bottom surface of the groove, the reference area 4121 is provided with a slope inclined relative to the first preset direction X on the side facing the scanning module 300, and the slope is configured as follows: the optical path of the detection light emitted from the scanning module 300 to the boss or groove is perpendicular to the slope; then, when forming the top surface of the boss 4122 or the bottom surface of the groove, it is only necessary to control the top surface of the boss 4122 or the bottom surface of the groove to be parallel to the slope.

[0050] In other embodiments, the reflective portion 420 may not be an integrally formed adhesive material layer on the surface of the reference region 4121, but may be a separate body provided relative to the reference region 4121 and fixed to the reflector of the reference region 4121 by gluing or other methods. Figures 6 to 8 , which respectively show a schematic diagram of a laser radar 1b provided in another embodiment of the present application after hiding the base shell, the transceiver module and the scanning module, Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the calibration module 400b and Figure 7In the partially enlarged schematic diagram at B in the figure, the laser radar 1b is basically the same as the laser radar 1 in the above embodiment, and the main difference between the two is that the calibration module 400b in the laser radar 1b is different from the calibration module 400 in the above embodiment; the reflecting part 420b in the calibration module 400b is a reflector. Specifically, the fixing part 410b includes a reference area 4121b located in the detection field of view of the laser radar 1b, and the reference area 4121b is provided with a groove 4123b; the reflecting part 420b includes a reflector, and the reflector is installed in the above groove 4123b. Optionally, a fixed surface 4124b is provided inside the groove 4123b, and the fixed surface 4124b is inclined relative to the above first preset direction X, and is configured as follows: the optical path of the detection light emitted from the scanning module 300 to the above groove 4123b is perpendicular to the fixed surface 4124b; the reflector is installed on the fixed surface 4124b. In this way, the echo light formed after the detection light is incident on the reflector will return along the long optical path and be received by the transceiver module 200. In this embodiment, the reflector is fixed in the above-mentioned groove 4123b by dispensing glue. Specifically, the fixing part 410b is provided with a second sink groove 4125b on the above-mentioned fixing surface 4124b, and the second sink groove 4125b divides the fixing surface 4124b into multiple areas; for example, the fixing surface 4124b can be provided with two second sink grooves 4125b, and the two second sink grooves 4125b intersect vertically, thereby dividing the fixing surface 4124b into four areas. The reflector is carried on the above-mentioned multiple areas and fixed to the fixing part by gluing. When the reflector is fixed, glue can be dispensed on its back side (the side facing the fixing surface 4124b), and the reflector is set in the correct position of the fixing surface 4124b, and the glue is cured; wherein the above-mentioned second sink groove 4125b can be used to accommodate excess glue to avoid overflowing glue.

[0051] It should be understood that even though the above description is based on an example in which the reference area 4121b is provided with a groove 4123b and the reflector is disposed in the groove 4123b, the present application is not limited thereto, as long as the reflector is fixed to the reference area 413b and is perpendicular to the optical path of the detection light emitted thereto; for example, in some other embodiments of the present application, the fixing portion 410 may also be as follows: Figures 3 to 5 The embodiment shown in FIG. 1 is provided with a boss to which the reflector is fixed.

[0052] It is worth mentioning that even though the above embodiments are described using the example that the reflective part is located on the side of the fixed part facing the scanning module, it should be understood that the present application is not limited to this, as long as the reflective part is installed on the fixed part and can reflect the detection light to form an echo light directed to the scanning module.

[0053] For example, see Figures 9 and 10, which respectively show schematic diagrams of the laser radar 1c with the base shell, the transceiver module and the scanning module hidden in some other embodiments of the present application and Fig. 9 The partially enlarged schematic diagram at point C in the middle shows that the laser radar 1c in this embodiment is substantially the same as the laser radar 1 in the above embodiment, with the main differences being that: the calibration module 400c in the laser radar 1c is different from the calibration module 400 in the above embodiment; the reflecting portion 420c of the calibration module 400c is located on the side of the fixed portion 410c away from the scanning module, and the fixed portion 410c of the calibration module 400c is provided with a through hole extending from a side close to the scanning module to the reflecting portion 420c, and the reflecting portion 420c blocks the through hole.

[0054] Specifically, one end of the fixing portion 410c is connected to the inner wall of the mounting hole, and the other end extends toward the axis of the mounting hole. A groove 4123c is provided on the surface of the fixing portion 410c facing away from the scanning module, and the reflecting portion 420c is installed in the groove 4123c; for example, the reflecting portion 420c can be fixed in the groove 4123c by any fixing method such as gluing or clamping. The fixing portion 410c is also provided with a through hole 4126c, one end of which passes through the surface of the fixing portion 410c facing the scanning module, and the other end extends to communicate with the above-mentioned groove 4123; the through hole 4126c is used for the detection light and the echo light corresponding to the reflecting portion 420c to pass through. Optionally, the extension direction of the through hole 4126c can be configured to be consistent with the optical path of the detection light to the reflective portion 420c, thereby ensuring that the detection light can smoothly reach the reflective portion 420c; of course, in other embodiments, the through hole 4126c can also be set to a larger caliber to provide a larger tolerance to ensure that the detection light can reach the reflective portion 420c. In this embodiment, the reflective portion 420c includes a diffuse reflection reflective film, which can be fixed in the above-mentioned groove 4123c by bonding; for example, the above-mentioned diffuse reflection reflective film can adopt a diamond-grade diffuse reflection reflective film, and can also adopt a reflective film used in road traffic. The use of a diffuse reflective film as the setting of the reflective part 420 can make it possible that: no matter what angle of incidence the detection light is incident on the reflective part 420, an echo light directed to the scanning module 300 will be formed, so there is no need to make special settings for the angle posture of the reflective part 420 as in the above-mentioned embodiment; that is, this setting can make the design and manufacture of the shape and posture of the fixed part 410 and the reflective part 420 more free and with a higher tolerance. Of course, in other embodiments of the present application, the reflective part 420 can also use a reflective medium of a mirror reflection type, such as a reflector (such as a silver reflector or an aluminum reflector, etc.). At this time, similar to the previous embodiment, the bottom surface of the groove 4123c of the fixed part needs to be configured to be perpendicular to the optical path of the detection light emitted from the scanning module to the groove.

[0055] It is worth adding that, since the calibration module 400 is used to calibrate the directional angle of the scanning element, it is necessary to ensure that the position and posture of the calibration module 400 do not change substantially during the service life of the laser radar 1. In the embodiment of the present application, if the above-mentioned fixing part and the lens barrel are separately formed, it should be ensured that the strength of the fixing part itself is higher than the preset strength threshold, and the rigidity is higher than the preset rigidity threshold. The preset strength threshold and the preset rigidity threshold can be determined by testing or simulation based on the use conditions of the laser radar 1. For example, the fixing part can be formed with the same material as the lens barrel; in addition, when the fixing part is fixed to the lens barrel, hard glue can be used to ensure the reliability of the connection, and of course, threaded fasteners can also be used for fixing. If the fixing part and the lens barrel are integrally formed, generally speaking, the strength of the fixing part itself can be better guaranteed, and of course, the material of the lens barrel can also be appropriately selected to improve the reliability of the structural form of the fixing part. As for the setting method of the reflecting part, if the reflecting part is a reflective material layer formed on the surface of the fixed part, its position and posture relative to the fixed part is relatively stable, and it is only necessary to ensure that the position and posture of the fixed part has better durability; if the reflecting part is a reflective mirror / diffuse reflection film that is formed separately relative to the fixed part and fixed to the fixed part, hard glue should be used to avoid changes in the position and posture of the reflecting part due to failure of the glue.

[0056] The above describes the structures of the shell module 100 , the transceiver module 200 , the scanning module 300 and the calibration module 400 in turn. Next, the working principle of the laser radar 1 that can be calibrated based on the calibration module 400 is briefly described.

[0057] When the laser radar is calibrated at the factory, the direction angle corresponding to the reflective part 420 can be obtained by scanning; for the sake of convenience, this direction angle is called the first preset direction angle. When the feedback sensitivity of the scanning element changes after the laser radar has been used for a long time, the direction angle corresponding to the reflective part 420 can be obtained by scanning; for the sake of convenience, this direction angle is called the second preset direction angle. In this way, based on the first preset direction angle and the second preset direction angle, the ratio of the change in the feedback sensitivity of the scanning element can be determined, and then the direction angle determined based on the feedback signal can be compensated based on the ratio to obtain the corrected direction angle.

[0058] Considering that the scanning direction angle of the scanning element is determined by the feedback signal output by the sensor (such as a piezoresistive sensor) integrated in the scanning element, and since the sensitivity of the sensor may vary in different parts, the feedback sensitivity changes of the scanning element on both sides of the central angle position of the second preset direction may not be consistent. To further improve this deficiency, in this embodiment, the laser radar 1 includes two calibration modules 400, which are arranged on both sides of the axis of the lens 120 along the second preset direction Y.

[0059] Based on this, in some applications, the change ratio of the feedback sensitivity on one side of the optical axis of the lens 120 can be determined by the calibration module 400 located on the side, and then the first compensation coefficient corresponding to the side can be determined. The change ratio of the feedback sensitivity on the other side of the optical axis of the lens 120 can be determined by the calibration module 400 located on the other side, and then the second compensation coefficient corresponding to the side can be determined; then, based on the first compensation coefficient and the second compensation coefficient, the direction angle compensation is performed on the point cloud points whose direction angles are on the same side in the point cloud data. This application method can use different compensation methods to compensate for the two specific azimuth sides when the scanning element scans in the second preset direction, which is conducive to improving the accuracy of the compensation process to a certain extent. In other applications, the first angle corresponding to the reflective parts 420 of the two calibration modules 400 in the detection field of view of the laser radar 1 can be determined first when the laser radar leaves the factory. The first angle can be determined based on the direction angle corresponding to the reflective part 420 of one calibration module 400 and the direction angle corresponding to the reflective part 420 of the other calibration module 400 when the laser radar 1 leaves the factory; for example Figure 4 The direction angle corresponding to the reflective portion 420 of the calibration module 400 on the right side (corresponding to the left side of the laser radar 1 field of view) is -55°, and the direction angle corresponding to the reflective portion 420 of the calibration module 400 on the left side (corresponding to the right side of the laser radar 1 field of view) is 55°, so the first angle is 110°. Then determine the second angle corresponding to the current two calibration modules 400 in the detection field of view of the laser radar 1. The second angle can be determined based on the current direction angle corresponding to the reflective portion 420 of one calibration module 400 and the direction angle corresponding to the reflective portion 420 of the other calibration module 400; for example Figure 4 The direction angle corresponding to the reflective part of the calibration module on the right side (corresponding to the left side of the field of view of the laser radar 1) is -57°, and the direction angle corresponding to the reflective part of the calibration module on the left side (corresponding to the right side of the field of view of the laser radar 1) is 58°, so the second preset direction angle is 115°. Then the compensation coefficient is determined according to the second angle and the first angle; specifically, the ratio of the first angle to the second angle can be determined as the compensation coefficient; for example, based on the above example, the compensation coefficient α=110° / 115°=0.9565 can be determined. Afterwards, when the laser radar 1 detects and obtains point cloud data, the direction angle of the point cloud point in the point cloud data is multiplied by the above compensation coefficient. This application method uses the angle corresponding to the two calibration modules 400 to determine the compensation coefficient, which can balance the unilateral error introduced by the unilateral calibration module 400 when detecting its direction angle, which is conducive to improving the accuracy of the compensation process.

[0060] In summary, the laser radar 1 provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a housing module 100, a transceiver module 200, a scanning module 300 and a calibration module 400. The calibration module 400 includes a reflective portion located in the detection field of the laser radar 1.

[0061] When the feedback sensitivity of the scanning element of the laser radar in the related art changes, it is necessary to place it in a preset calibration scene, and use a calibration element outside the laser radar and another laser radar (such as a true value laser radar with accurate directional angle) to perform a secondary calibration on the directional angle of the scanning element. In comparison, when the feedback sensitivity of the scanning element of the laser radar 1 (1b, 1c) provided in the embodiment of the present application changes, there is no need to use a calibration element outside the laser radar 1, nor is there a need to configure a corresponding calibration scene for the laser radar 1 separately. Instead, the change in the scanning angle caused by the change in the feedback sensitivity of the scanning element can be determined based on the built-in calibration module 400, so the calibration process is simpler. That is, the laser radar 1 provided in the embodiment of the present application can improve the current situation in which the laser radar in the related art needs to rely on the calibration components and calibration scenes outside the laser radar when recalibrating the scanning angle of the scanning element, which leads to a cumbersome calibration process.
