Description

[0002] A true value system is a data acquisition system composed of on-board sensors such as millimeter-wave radar, lidar, and high-precision combined inertial navigation, along with efficient data recording equipment. Because it processes data to produce data (true value) that is more reliable than the sensor being tested, true value systems are often used to evaluate the performance of the sensor being tested. Furthermore, based on the accuracy of data collection, after cleaning, labeling, and data mining of the true value data, a natural driving scene dataset can be generated, which can then be used to build a natural driving scene library.

[0003] With the rapid development of artificial intelligence and sensor technology, autonomous driving has made significant progress. As autonomous driving levels increase, the performance of autonomous vehicle sensors is bound to improve. However, actual performance in real-world road environments requires testing and verification.

[0083] Example 2: Based on the vehicle-road collaboration-based vehicle-mounted sensor perception performance evaluation truth value system of Example 1, the present invention is further illustrated and described below.

[0084] like Figure 1 or Figure 2 As shown, a vehicle-mounted sensor perception performance evaluation truth value system based on vehicle-road collaboration includes:

[0085] The vehicle-side perception data acquisition module is used to obtain the first point cloud data information of the road in real time based on the vehicle-mounted laser radar, the first image data information of the road in real time based on the vehicle-mounted camera, and the speed, distance, horizontal angle and height data information of the target obstacle in real time based on the vehicle-mounted 4D millimeter wave radar;

[0086] A roadside perception data acquisition module is used to acquire second point cloud data information of the road in real time based on a roadside laser radar, and to acquire second image data information of the road in real time based on a roadside camera;

[0087] a vehicle-side and road-side perception data fusion module, connected to the vehicle-side perception data acquisition module and the road test perception data acquisition module, for fusing the road and target obstacle data using a multimodal feature fusion algorithm based on a deep belief network with an attenuation factor based on the first point cloud data information of the road, the second point cloud data information of the road, the first image data information of the road, the second image data information of the road, and the speed, distance, horizontal angle, and height data information of the target obstacle, to obtain fused dynamic perception data;

[0088] The vehicle-side sensor perception performance evaluation true value module is connected to the vehicle-side and road-side perception data fusion module, and is used to construct the vehicle sensor perception performance evaluation true value function R based on the fused dynamic perception data, calculate the vehicle sensor perception performance evaluation true value, and obtain data information of the vehicle sensor perception performance evaluation true value.

[0089] In this embodiment, the system further includes a display module, which is connected to the perception performance evaluation true value module of the vehicle-side sensor and is used to display the perception performance evaluation true value of the vehicle-side sensor in real time.

[0090] In this embodiment, the system further includes a voice module connected to the perception performance evaluation true value module of the vehicle-side sensor, for obtaining the perception performance evaluation true value of the vehicle-side sensor in real time and reporting it.

[0091] LiDAR is susceptible to weather conditions. Rain, snow, and fog can scatter or absorb the laser beam, reducing detection accuracy and range. LiDAR can also be interfered with in direct sunlight or in highly reflective environments, affecting performance. Surfaces are easily contaminated, requiring regular cleaning and maintenance. With the advancement of millimeter-wave radar technology, 4D millimeter-wave radar not only achieves high-level perception but also outputs highly accurate speed detection. Millimeter-wave detection is only affected by reflections from materials like metal and glass, making it less susceptible to weather factors like rain, snow, and strong sunlight. Surface dirt also has no impact on performance. Therefore, adding a true value system to 4D millimeter-wave radar not only improves the system's overall detection accuracy but also allows for testing the sensor's performance limits in inclement weather.

[0092] For the evaluation of assisted driving sensors below Level 2, the traditional solution uses a combination of on-board lidar and cameras. The reliable range of on-board lidar is generally within 150 meters, which cannot be used to evaluate ordinary 3D millimeter-wave radar (detection range of 250 meters). Adding a 4D millimeter-wave radar has a maximum range of up to 350 meters, which can improve the detection range of the true value system to a certain extent.

[0093] However, with the continuous improvement of autonomous driving technology, 4D millimeter-wave radar will also be included in the evaluation of autonomous driving sensor configurations above L3 in the future. Furthermore, long-distance measurement accuracy is relatively poor for lidar. Therefore, the use of vehicle-road collaborative perception can effectively solve the long-distance sensor evaluation problem. Vehicle-road collaborative perception uses roadside lidar, cameras, and other sensors to accurately detect roadside targets. After packaging and processing by an industrial computer, the data is transmitted to the roadside unit (ROU). The RSU then transmits the perception data to the vehicle-side V2X module. The V2X module transmits it to the industrial computer of the vehicle-side truth system via transparent transmission. The vehicle-side perception data is then integrated with the roadside perception data to form high-precision, long-distance, real-time dynamic perception data.

[0094] In summary, the present invention not only improves the speed detection accuracy of the true value system and reduces the impact of bad weather, but also extends the detection distance of the true value system and expands the evaluation range.

[0095] The above specific embodiments do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this disclosure. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications, combinations, sub-combinations, and substitutions may be made based on design requirements and other factors. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this disclosure shall be included within the scope of protection of this disclosure.
