[0032] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0033] Embodiment 1: refer to Figure 1 The automatic driving device monitoring system on a highway according to the present application comprises

[0034] 1) Vehicle-mounted perception layer: comprising sensors and an anti-interference module; the sensors collect road data; the anti-interference module performs spatio-temporal alignment on the data collected by the sensors and dynamically adjusts the weight of the sensor fusion according to the weather condition to improve the recognition effect;

[0035] As shown in Figure 2 The sensors comprise a laser radar, a millimeter wave radar, a visual camera, and a GNSS / IMU combined positioning module. The spatio-temporal alignment is performed on the data collected by the sensors, specifically: the global synchronization timestamp is obtained through the PTP protocol, with a precision of microsecond level (±1 μs), so that the laser radar, the millimeter wave radar, the visual camera, and the GNSS / IMU combined positioning module are aligned in the time dimension, avoiding the time misalignment caused by the difference in sampling frequency of the sensors;

[0036] The coordinate systems of different sensors are unified into the same reference coordinate system through a transformation matrix, solving the spatial misalignment problem caused by the difference in sensor installation positions;

[0037] The point cloud data of the laser radar is obtained according to the synchronization timestamp, and the point cloud left is converted to a unified coordinate system through a transformation matrix, to obtain the spatio-temporally aligned laser radar point cloud;

[0038] The tracking target data of the millimeter wave radar is obtained according to the synchronization timestamp, and the local coordinates of the radar data are projected into the reference coordinate system in combination with the vehicle pose such as position and orientation, to obtain the radar target trajectory in the reference coordinate system;

[0039] Finally, a fusion data structure containing the spatio-temporally aligned laser radar point cloud, radar target trajectory and camera image is output.

[0040] Among them, the camera image in the fusion data structure also includes the distortion removal processing (such as correcting radial distortion and tangential distortion) of the visual camera before fusion, eliminating lens distortion and ensuring that the image is accurately aligned in space with the laser radar / radar data.

[0041] Among them, dynamically adjusting the recognition weight ratio of each sensor according to the weather conditions specifically includes: real-time recognition of the visual camera image to determine the current weather type; based on the weather type, dynamically allocating sensor weights, and the weight allocation logic is as follows: rain / snowy weather: weaken the weight of the visual sensor (low visibility), and increase the weight of the laser radar and millimeter wave radar (strong penetration). Snowy weather: increase the weight of the laser radar (stable geometric information), and reduce the weight of the camera (reflection interference). Table 1 is an example of weight allocation.

[0042] Table 1

[0043]

[0044]

[0045] In poor weather conditions, such as in rainy weather, the weight of the laser radar is increased to 50%, and the laser radar (Lidar) is less affected by rain, which can provide more reliable geometric information (such as obstacle distance); the weight of the camera is reduced to 20%, and rain can cause image blur, reflection or reduced visibility, reducing the dependence on visual data.

[0046] 2) Edge computing layer: real-time processing and dynamic task scheduling of data, balancing computing load and response speed; in different network bandwidth conditions, different processing modes are used to enhance system processing capacity and accuracy, as shown in Figure 3 .

[0047] The edge computing layer includes a bandwidth detection module, a dynamic offloading module, a cloud processing module and a local processing module; the network detection module is used for detecting the network state of data transmission, including the bandwidth and delay of the network; the dynamic offloading module judges whether to offload the edge computing task to the cloud processing module or the local processing module for processing according to the detection result of the network detection module; the cloud processing module receives uploaded data through a cloud server, analyzes the data by using an AI model, generates a decision instruction and issues the decision instruction to a vehicle-mounted device and a roadside device; the local processing module analyzes and detects data by using a local lightweight model, generates an abnormality detection result, and broadcasts the abnormality detection result through a roadside unit.

[0048] 3) Cloud decision layer: globally integrates and optimizes data, and triggers a multi-level early warning protocol when detecting an emergency event or a road condition, and broadcasts early warning information and vehicle passing suggestions through a road testing device.

[0049] The cloud decision layer globally integrates and optimizes data, and specifically:

[0050] The edge data is summarized;

[0051] An LSTM prediction model is used to predict the road degradation probability by combining 7-day historical data, so as to ensure that the prediction error is less than 5%;
