The all-terrain intelligent data collection vehicle based on machine vision according to claim 7 is characterized in that: Each of the first telescopic part, the shaft transmission mechanism and the third telescopic part is controllably connected to the control module, and the control module controls them to telescope and adjust along a set direction respectively.
9. The all-terrain intelligent data collection vehicle based on machine vision according to claim 1, characterized in that: The shaft transmission mechanism of any tire assembly and the exteriors of the two power assemblies are both covered with dustproof shells, and the dustproof shells are fixedly connected to the chassis.
10. A collection method of an all-terrain intelligent collection vehicle based on machine vision according to any one of claims 1 to 9, characterized in that: The steps include: 1) After the vehicle drives to the initial position, the machine vision module is started to shoot and identify the target block, and a topographic map of the target block is generated and sent to the control module; wherein the target block is the set shooting range of the machine vision module, and the area of the target block does not exceed the area of the acquisition area; 2) The control module plans several vehicle driving paths according to the target block topographic map, and marks the road condition parameters for any vehicle driving path; wherein the road condition parameters include road width, road flatness, curve radius, slope, and lateral gradient; 3) determining a target vehicle driving path, the control module generating vehicle configuration optimization data according to the road condition parameters of the path, and adjusting the vehicle configuration according to the vehicle configuration optimization data; wherein the vehicle configuration includes wheel type, lateral distance and longitudinal distance between tires, center of gravity height, and number of wheels; 4) The vehicle travels along the driving path of the target vehicle, and the collection target of the driving direction of the collection vehicle obtained in real time by the machine vision module is sent to the control module, and then the control module controls the six-degree-of-freedom robotic arm to collect.
