The traditional remote control system relies on the visual judgment of the operator, which is limited by the field of view of the camera and the delay, and it is difficult to fully perceive the surrounding environment, especially in poor conditions such as low light and high dust, the target recognition accuracy is greatly reduced, which is easy to cause safety accidents. The existing anti-collision system mainly uses single sensor detection, the laser radar has poor penetration in rain and fog, and the millimeter wave radar has insufficient identification of static targets, resulting in a blind area of perception or a high false alarm rate, which cannot meet the needs of complex scenes.

The warning decision lacks dynamic adaptability, and the priority of different targets such as personnel and equipment is not sufficient, the warning method is single, and the operator is easy to cause attention distraction and fail to respond in time. Remote communication relies on a single link, which is easy to be interrupted by shielding or electromagnetic interference, and the delay of control instructions may cause operation errors. The man-machine interface does not realize the intuitive presentation of risk information, and the operator needs to process a large amount of data, which increases the decision burden and affects the emergency response speed.

Based on the risk index, three levels are defined: a risk index greater than five seconds indicates mild risk, a risk index between three and five seconds indicates moderate risk, and a risk index less than or equal to three seconds indicates high risk.

The dynamic target recognition module incorporates a deep learning model trained on over 10,000 samples, maintaining an accuracy rate of over 98% in detecting individuals wearing reflective clothing, and can reliably identify targets even when the occlusion level is less than 30%.

Four millimeter-wave radars, operating in the 77GHz band, are installed at the four corners of the excavator, with a detection range of 0.5-300m, a speed range of 0-100km / h, and a range resolution of 0.2m. Six binocular cameras are distributed around the cab, operating at 30fps with a baseline distance of 120mm. Built-in infrared illuminators automatically activate when illumination is ≤5 lux, and BM3D algorithm noise reduction improves image quality in low-light environments. Sensor synchronization is achieved via GPS timestamps, with a synchronization error ≤5ms, ensuring data spatiotemporal alignment.
[0039] II. Dynamic Target Recognition and Feature Extraction The improved YOLOv5 algorithm incorporates a feature pyramid network to enhance detection of small targets (such as workers at a distance). The model was trained on over 10,000 samples, covering six types of construction machinery, personnel in reflective clothing, and five types of static obstacles. Point cloud clustering employs the density-adaptive DBSCAN algorithm, with the minimum neighbor number for core points dynamically adjusted between 8 and 15 based on point cloud density. The Euclidean distance clustering threshold adaptively varies from 0.3 to 0.8 meters. Real-time extraction of target 3D position (accuracy ±10cm), velocity vector (error ≤0.2m / s), and size parameters (error ≤5%) is performed to construct a dynamic target feature database, supporting continuous tracking of target trajectories. Lost targets can be re-identified within 1 second.
[0040] III. Risk Assessment and Early Warning Decision-Making The collision risk index is calculated based on the extended Kalman filter to predict the target's trajectory in the next 3 seconds. Where d is the relative distance in three-dimensional space, v is the relative velocity magnitude, and θ is the angle between the velocity directions. Risk levels are divided as follows: R > 5s (mild), 3s < R ≤ 5s (moderate), and R ≤ 3s (high). The fuzzy control algorithm contains 25 rules, with input variables quantified as risk index [0,10]s, target priority (personnel > equipment > obstacles), and environmental complexity (light / dust level). Yellow alerts are marked with red risk areas on the AR interface, orange alerts are superimposed with an 80dB buzzer, and red alerts are triggered at 0.5m / s. 2 Decelerate and lock the dangerous direction control lever, while retaining the emergency override mechanism (press and hold the red button for 2 seconds to unlock).

Acceleration limit ≤ 1 m / s² 2 Acceleration ≤ 5m / s 3 The obstacle avoidance safety margin is 1.5m. The self-learning subsystem is based on the PPO algorithm, aiming for a warning accuracy of ≥90% and a false alarm rate of ≤5%.

Improved target recognition accuracy is attributed to multi-source sensor fusion and algorithm optimization, eliminating blind spots from single sensors and maintaining stable recognition capabilities even in harsh environments. Increased collision risk prediction accuracy stems from 3D trajectory prediction and dynamic risk assessment, accurately distinguishing different risk levels and reducing false alarms and missed alarms.
