Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical fields of environmental monitoring and intelligent robots, and also to multiple fields such as sensor technology, the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, environmental safety, and new energy. More specifically, it relates to a PM2.5 and inert gas monitoring system based on an unmanned patrol vehicle, which is an efficient, intelligent, and flexible PM2.5 and inert gas monitoring solution suitable for air quality monitoring and early warning in urban environments, industrial areas, construction sites, scientific research laboratories, and other scenarios. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, pollutant and pollutant gas monitoring relies on fixed monitoring stations or manual inspections, lacking mobility or automation capabilities. For example, monitoring stations are deployed at traffic intersections, scenic areas, industrial zones, and building rooftops to collect pollutants and pollutant gases (such as PM2.5 and inert gases). These monitoring stations are static and sparsely deployed, resulting in large monitoring blind spots and limited coverage. Therefore, comprehensive coverage was not achieved in the subsequent analysis, hindering the realization of large-scale, all-weather automated monitoring, and the accuracy of the analysis results needs improvement.
[0003] With advancements in technology, unmanned patrol vehicles have acquired autonomous navigation, environmental perception, and mission execution capabilities. However, they are primarily used for security patrols and have not been integrated with environmental gas monitoring functions. Furthermore, current technology lacks the capability for joint mobile monitoring of PM2.5 and inert gases.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an efficient, flexible, integrated, and intelligent monitoring system to improve the coverage and real-time performance of PM2.5 and inert gas monitoring. Summary of the Invention

[0027] This invention provides a PM2.5 and inert gas monitoring system based on an unmanned patrol vehicle. The system includes a PM2.5 monitoring module, an inert gas monitoring module, and an unmanned patrol vehicle. The PM2.5 monitoring module and the inert gas monitoring module are integrated and mounted on the unmanned patrol vehicle, moving with it. Depending on the scenario, the unmanned patrol vehicle can adopt a tracked or wheeled chassis. The unmanned patrol vehicle is equipped with devices such as lidar, high-definition cameras, GPS, and inertial navigation devices. It can move autonomously and avoid obstacles according to a planned path, covering the target monitoring area and performing real-time monitoring of PM2.5 and inert gases.
[0028] This invention applies a PM2.5 monitoring module and an inert gas monitoring module to an unmanned patrol vehicle to perform real-time mobile monitoring of PM2.5 and inert gases, which can improve the comprehensiveness, real-time performance and accuracy of PM2.5 and inert gas monitoring.
[0029] The following is combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the specific implementation method and working principle of the PM2.5 and inert gas monitoring system based on an unmanned patrol vehicle of the present invention are described in detail:
[0030] In this embodiment, the unmanned patrol vehicle preferably adopts a wheeled chassis. Before each unmanned patrol vehicle receives a mission and departs, it calibrates the sensor deviation. When performing the mission, it collects PM2.5 and various gas detection values of the surrounding environment according to the planned path, and integrates the environmental positioning values of lidar, real-time images of the surrounding environment monitored by the camera, and fixed location calibration values. The data is wirelessly transmitted to the remote cloud platform at 1.2s intervals for real-time judgment, so as to realize high-precision, real-time and large-scale monitoring of PM2.5 and inert gases in both normal and complex environments.
[0031] In one specific implementation, the PM2.5 monitoring module uses a YW-51GJ dust sensor with a detection range of 0-1000 μg / m³.3 Accuracy ±5μg / m 3 It can detect PM2.5 concentration with high precision. The inert gas monitoring module uses a TDLAS spectrometer to detect VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and inert gas leaks (such as argon and helium); and integrates a thermal imager to generate a heat map to help locate the gas leak source.
[0032] In one specific implementation, the unmanned patrol vehicle is also equipped with an environmental meteorological monitoring module for sensing environmental meteorological parameters. The environmental meteorological monitoring module includes temperature, humidity and wind speed sensors, which can monitor environmental meteorological parameters such as temperature, humidity and wind speed.
[0033] In one specific implementation, the unmanned patrol vehicle is equipped with an embedded industrial control computer (Jetson Xavier NX), such as... Figure 2 As shown, the embedded industrial control computer processes data collected by the PM2.5 monitoring module, inert gas monitoring module, and environmental meteorological monitoring module. It then corrects the PM2.5 and inert gas data by incorporating environmental meteorological parameters. Using an AI model (such as CNN or LSTM models), it analyzes the corrected data to identify the type and location of pollution sources. Furthermore, the embedded industrial control computer transmits the monitoring data and analysis results to a cloud platform in real time via a 4G / 5G communication module. The cloud platform stores and displays the monitoring data and analysis results, allowing staff to remotely monitor the situation and make judgments based on the data and analysis results. When PM2.5 or inert gas data exceeds the warning threshold, it issues a warning to the management department.
[0034] In one specific implementation, the embedded industrial control computer is equipped with a path planning module. The path planning module uses a fusion algorithm of A* and DWA to plan the path according to the monitoring task. The specific process includes: initializing the grid map and setting the target point and the starting point; using the A* algorithm to plan the global path; using the improved DWA algorithm to plan the local path; updating the current position to the newly generated trajectory end point; determining whether the current position is the global target point. If so, the algorithm ends and the trajectory is connected to obtain the final planned path. Otherwise, the improved DWA algorithm is used again to plan the local path.
[0035] In one specific implementation, the unmanned patrol vehicle is equipped with a dual power supply unit consisting of lithium batteries and solar energy, which can ensure that the unmanned patrol vehicle can work stably and continuously for a long time.
[0036] As described in the above embodiments, those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention provides a PM2.5 and inert gas monitoring system based on an unmanned patrol vehicle. By integrating PM2.5 and inert gas sensors onto the unmanned patrol vehicle, real-time mobile monitoring of PM2.5 and inert gases can be performed, improving the comprehensiveness, real-time performance, and accuracy of PM2.5 and inert gas monitoring. Compared with existing technologies, the present invention has higher flexibility, adaptability, and reliability, and can be widely applied in fields such as environmental monitoring, industrial safety, and emergency management, possessing significant social and economic benefits.
[0037] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, with each embodiment focusing on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referred to each other.
[0038] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the invention.
