Description

Technical Field

[0002] Safety management in tower operations faces severe challenges. The complex environment of high-altitude operations, involving multiple targets such as personnel, equipment, and machinery, makes them prone to accidents due to spatial overlap or conflicting movement trajectories. Traditional safety warning systems struggle to identify dynamic risks in real-time and accurately, especially in complex three-dimensional work scenarios, lacking intelligent prediction and collision warning capabilities for multi-target movement trajectories. While the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System provides centimeter-level three-dimensional coordinate data and drone aerial photography can quickly acquire panoramic images of the work site, the key lies in utilizing this data for accurate trajectory prediction and risk warning. Furthermore, existing trajectory prediction methods are ill-suited to the complex dynamic interactions of multiple targets in tower operations, failing to effectively integrate attributes such as equipment type, movement speed, and work stage for dynamic risk assessment, thus impacting the safety and efficiency of high-altitude operation management.

[0023] This application provides a tower operation safety early warning system, such as Figure 1 As shown, the system includes:

[0024] The data acquisition unit 10 is used to acquire the BeiDou three-dimensional coordinate data of each operation target in real time, and simultaneously acquire panoramic images of the operation site through drone aerial photography.

[0025] Preferably, the BeiDou 3D coordinate data of each work target is acquired in real time, including the 3D coordinate data of personnel, equipment, tools, etc., such as longitude, latitude, and altitude. Specifically, workers wear BeiDou positioning terminals, such as handheld devices or safety helmets with built-in modules, to acquire personnel 3D coordinate data. Cranes, elevators and other mechanical equipment are equipped with BeiDou high-precision positioning modules to collect equipment 3D coordinate data. Large tools such as tower hoisting equipment are equipped with lightweight positioning modules to acquire tool 3D coordinate data. This is used to track the precise position of all dynamic targets in real time. Simultaneously, panoramic images of the work site are acquired through drone aerial photography. The drone is equipped with a high-resolution camera and a POS system, as well as an RTK positioning module to ensure accurate shooting position. The POS system is used to record the drone's own position and attitude. The drone flies over the work area along a preset route, capturing multi-angle panoramic images of the work site in real time. It simultaneously records the timestamp, latitude and longitude, pitch angle, yaw angle, etc. of each frame of the image. The SLAM algorithm is used to stitch multiple frames of images into a panoramic image, which can extract and identify feature points such as tower structures, equipment, and personnel in the images, such as the edges of tower materials and the outline of cranes. This provides a visual global perspective of the work site and makes up for the lack of environmental information in Beidou data.

[0026] The operation scene model building unit 20 is used to fuse three-dimensional coordinate data with panoramic images of the operation site through spatiotemporal registration to build a dynamic three-dimensional operation scene model containing all targets.

[0027] Preferably, spatiotemporal registration refers to the time synchronization and spatial alignment of BeiDou coordinate data and UAV panoramic images from different sources, at different times, and in different coordinate systems. Specifically, this includes: establishing a three-dimensional spatial coordinate system with the base of the tower as the origin, where the X-axis points due east, the Y-axis points due north, and the Z-axis points vertically upward; using the Network Time Protocol (NTP) to ensure that the timestamps of BeiDou positioning data and each frame of images captured by the UAV are strictly matched, with a time synchronization accuracy of no less than 1 millisecond; establishing a mathematical mapping relationship between the BeiDou world coordinate system and the UAV image coordinate system through a coordinate transformation matrix T (T=[R|t], where R is a 3×3 rotation matrix and t is a 3×1 translation vector); fusing the registered BeiDou coordinate data with environmental information in the UAV imagery, including coordinate system mapping and feature point registration, and then constructing a three-dimensional scene with spatiotemporal attributes, i.e., a dynamic three-dimensional operation scene model containing all targets, to display the real-time position and movement status of personnel, equipment, and the tower structure.

[0028] Furthermore, the specific configuration of the operation scene model establishment unit 20 also includes: establishing a mapping relationship between the UAV camera coordinate system and the Beidou three-dimensional coordinate system; spatially aligning the three-dimensional coordinate data with the panoramic image of the operation site based on the mapping relationship; performing point cloud registration of the tower structure feature points extracted from the UAV image with the pre-stored tower BIM model; using the coordinates after point cloud registration as a reference, and according to the coordinate mapping relationship, fusing the three-dimensional coordinate data into the point cloud registration coordinates to establish a dynamic three-dimensional operation scene model containing all targets.

[0029] Preferably, the images captured by the UAV are in a 2D pixel coordinate system, while the BeiDou positioning data is in a 3D world coordinate system. A mapping relationship is established between the UAV camera coordinate system and the BeiDou 3D coordinate system. Specifically, the latitude, longitude, pitch, and yaw angle data are determined using the POS system onboard the UAV, and the real-world coordinates corresponding to each pixel in the image are calculated. Then, a transformation matrix between world coordinates and pixel coordinates is established, ensuring strict alignment of the timestamps of the image frames and BeiDou data. Then, based on the mapping relationship, the 3D coordinate data is spatially aligned with the panoramic image of the work site. The tower structure feature points extracted from the UAV images are then registered with the pre-stored tower BIM model as point clouds. Specifically, from the UAV images... The process involves extracting steel structure feature points from the tower, such as bolt holes, welds, and angle steel edges. Corresponding 3D feature points are then extracted from the pre-stored tower BIM model. An iterative nearest-point algorithm or feature matching algorithm is used to align the tower structure feature points in the image with the pre-stored tower BIM model, optimizing rotation and translation parameters. Simultaneously, the symmetry of the tower and the consistency of the steel structure curvature are utilized to iteratively reduce registration errors. Finally, using the coordinates after point cloud registration as a reference, the 3D coordinate data is mapped and fused into the point cloud registration coordinates through coordinate mapping relationships, generating a dynamic 3D operational scene model containing all targets, such as the pre-stored tower BIM model, real-time updated equipment and personnel coordinates and movement trajectories, and drone imagery.

[0030] Furthermore, the specific configuration of the operation scenario model establishment unit 20 also includes acquiring UAV POS data, including longitude, latitude, altitude, pitch angle, and yaw angle, and binding the UAV POS data and image data to the same timestamp to ensure time synchronization; based on the UAV POS data, constructing a transformation matrix and translation vector between image pixel coordinates and BeiDou world coordinates through perspective projection transformation to determine the mapping relationship.

[0031] Preferably, the UAV POS data is acquired through the POS system onboard the UAV. This data includes the spatial attitude and position information recorded by the UAV when capturing each frame of imagery, such as longitude, latitude, altitude, pitch angle, and yaw angle. The imagery data captured by the UAV and the POS data are time-aligned, i.e., bound to the same timestamp, to avoid coordinate mapping errors caused by transmission delays. Then, based on the UAV POS data, a transformation matrix and translation vector between image pixel coordinates and BeiDou world coordinates are constructed through perspective projection transformation. Specifically, using the UAV's longitude, latitude, altitude, pitch angle, and yaw angle POS data, the transformation matrix from 3D world coordinates to 2D pixel coordinates is calculated through collinearity equations, ensuring that the timestamps of the image frames and BeiDou data are strictly aligned. The offset of the UAV's current position relative to the BeiDou coordinate origin is then determined as the translation vector, ultimately establishing the mapping relationship.

[0032] Furthermore, the specific configuration of the operation scenario model establishment unit 20 also includes: using mapping relationships to transform the tower structure feature points extracted from the UAV image into the BeiDou world coordinate system; extracting corresponding feature points in the BIM model; and aligning the image feature points with the BIM model feature points through a point cloud registration algorithm to complete the point cloud registration of the UAV image features with the pre-stored tower BIM model.

[0033] Preferably, the tower feature points in the 2D images captured by the drone are precisely matched with the 3D feature points of the pre-stored tower BIM model to establish a spatial correspondence, ultimately achieving precise alignment of the dynamic 3D scene. Specifically, based on a CNN network, tower material feature points are extracted from the drone images, including geometric features such as angle steel edges, bolt holes, and welds, as well as texture features such as rust patches and signage text. Then, using the mapping relationship determined by the perspective projection matrix, the extracted feature points are transformed into the BeiDou world coordinate system. That is, the camera coordinate system coordinates of the extracted feature points are calculated through back projection, and then the camera coordinates are transformed... The coordinates are changed to BeiDou world coordinates; the 3D point cloud of the tower or the CAD model of key components of the tower is exported from the pre-stored tower BIM model, and feature points that match the image are extracted, such as the center coordinates of the tower foot bolt holes. The image feature points are aligned with the BIM model feature points through feature matching and iterative nearest point matching. This includes estimating the initial rotation matrix using the symmetry of the tower, calculating the Euclidean distance between the image feature points and the BIM model points, and then solving the optimal rotation and translation matrices respectively. This completes the point cloud registration of the UAV image features and the pre-stored tower BIM model, realizing the virtual-real fusion of UAV image and BIM model.

[0034] Furthermore, the specific configuration of the operation scenario model establishment unit 20 also includes: initializing the rotation and translation parameters using the symmetry features of the iron tower; calculating the spatial distance between the image feature points and the BIM model points; and iteratively optimizing the registration accuracy based on the rotation and translation parameters, spatial distance, and steel structure curvature similarity until the target matching error is reached, thus determining the point cloud registration.

[0035] Preferably, efficient and high-precision point cloud registration is achieved through tower symmetry initialization and curvature optimization iteration. Specifically, tower symmetry feature analysis is performed, i.e., typical tower structures have axisymmetric (such as four-corner towers) or central symmetry (such as steel pipe towers) characteristics. By detecting the symmetry plane / axis in the BIM model, the parameter search range is greatly reduced. Then, the main symmetry axis direction of the BIM model is extracted. According to the drone shooting angle, the image feature points are rotated to align with the symmetry direction of the BIM model. The initial rotation and translation parameters are calculated. For example, if the tower is four-corner symmetric, the image feature points are rotated by 90°, 180°, and 270° respectively during initialization. The angle with the smallest matching error is selected as the initial value.

[0036] Preferably, Euclidean distance is used to calculate the spatial distance between the nearest neighbor pairs of image feature points and BIM model points, and outlier point pairs with a distance greater than a threshold (e.g., 10cm) are removed to avoid noise interference. Then, based on rotation and translation parameters and spatial distance, the registration accuracy is iteratively optimized by combining the similarity of steel structure curvature. Specifically, the curvature features of the steel structure are extracted, that is, the local curvature of the BIM model and image feature points is calculated to reflect the degree of bending of the steel structure. Then, an objective function is constructed to minimize the distance error and the difference in steel structure curvature. The weight coefficient of steel structure curvature is usually 0.1~0.3, until the target matching error is reached, for example, when the average registration error is less than 1cm, fast and high-precision point cloud registration is achieved, providing a reliable dynamic three-dimensional benchmark for safety early warning.

[0037] The prediction model building unit 30 is used to track the motion trajectory of each task target based on time series coordinate data, build a prediction model that integrates kinematic rules and machine learning, and predict the intersection area between the target motion paths.

[0038] The specific configuration of the prediction model building unit 30 further includes: constructing a kinematic sub-model based on the physical parameters of the equipment and outputting the rigid body motion trajectory; constructing a machine learning sub-model through a long short-term memory network to learn the behavior patterns of personnel; and superimposing the kinematic sub-model and the machine learning sub-model through a weighted fusion method to construct a prediction model, with the fusion weight dynamically adjusted according to the prediction accuracy, for outputting a probability cloud map of the motion path within the future time window.

[0039] Preferably, a predictive model is established by integrating kinematic rules and machine learning behavior to predict the future movement paths of dynamic targets such as personnel and equipment in tower operation scenarios, and to identify potential intersection areas between different target trajectories, i.e., collision risk points. Specifically, the time-series coordinate data includes the BeiDou coordinate data of each operation target, thereby tracking and determining the movement trajectory of each operator and piece of equipment. Then, for mechanical equipment such as cranes and elevators, a rigid body motion model is constructed based on physical parameters such as the length of its robotic arm, rotation speed, and acceleration limits, as a kinematic sub-model, and the future trajectory is predicted using Newton's equations of motion. For personnel behavior, a Long Short-Term Memory (LSI) network is used. TM takes time-series data such as position, velocity, acceleration, and orientation angle as input, learns motion patterns from historical trajectory data, such as walking path preferences and pausing habits, and determines machine learning sub-models to output the probability distribution of personnel positions within future time windows. Then, it merges the kinematics sub-model and the machine learning sub-model to obtain a fused prediction model, generates a motion path probability cloud map, quantifies the probability of each spatial point being occupied in the future, and predicts the intersection area between target motion paths. For example, when the probability distribution overlap area between equipment and personnel exceeds a threshold (such as 30%), it is marked as a high-risk intersection area, thereby achieving accurate prediction of motion trajectories and dynamic risk identification in complex scenarios.

[0040] Furthermore, the specific configuration of the prediction model building unit 30 also includes: randomly sampling the probability distribution of random factors during the movement of the device, generating position samples at each time step; combining a kinematic sub-model with each sample point to simulate the movement trajectory of the device from the current moment to the future time window, performing statistical analysis on the movement trajectories of all sample points, calculating the probability of the device appearing at each position, and generating the probability distribution of the device's movement path; extracting features from the historical trajectory data of personnel, including position, speed, acceleration, and direction of movement, using a neural network model based on an attention mechanism to model the personnel trajectory, calculating the importance weight of each time step, and weighting the key path points in the personnel trajectory based on the attention weight; using the weighted features as input, predicting the movement path of personnel within the future time window through the neural network model, and generating the probability distribution of the personnel's movement path; superimposing the probability distribution of the device's movement path with the probability distribution of the personnel's movement path, calculating the intersection probability of the two at each position; using a preset probability threshold to determine the intersection probability, marking the region probability according to the determined probability result, and generating a movement path probability cloud map.

[0041] Preferably, by using Monte Carlo random sampling and neural network prediction, the probability distributions of future movement paths of equipment and personnel are generated respectively. The intersection probability of the two in three-dimensional space is calculated by superimposing the results, and finally a visualized movement path probability cloud map is formed, thereby realizing quantitative early warning of collision risk. Specifically, the movement of equipment such as cranes is affected by random factors such as mechanical control errors and wind disturbances. It is necessary to model the probability distribution. At each time step, the probability distribution of random factors in the movement process of the equipment is generated by Monte Carlo random sampling to determine possible position samples. For each sample point, the kinematic sub-model is combined to simulate the movement trajectory of the equipment from the current moment to the future time window. That is, the position sample is substituted into the rigid body kinematic equation to calculate the future movement trajectory, and the frequency of occurrence of the spatial positions passed by the movement trajectory corresponding to all samples in the future time window is statistically analyzed. The probability of the equipment appearing at each position is calculated, that is, the ratio of the number of times the trajectory passes through that point to the total number of samples, and the probability distribution of the movement path of the equipment is generated.

[0042] Preferably, features are extracted from historical trajectory data of personnel, including location, speed, acceleration, and direction of movement. An attention mechanism is used to calculate the importance weight of each time step, highlighting key behaviors. Then, a neural network model is used to model the personnel trajectory, weighting key path points in the trajectory based on attention weights. Using the weighted features as input, the neural network model predicts the personnel's movement path within a future time window, outputting a multivariate Gaussian distribution of the future path as the probability distribution of the personnel's movement path, i.e., a probability grid map, where each grid stores the probability value of personnel arrival. Next, the probability distributions of equipment and personnel movement paths are superimposed, i.e., the product of the probability distributions of equipment and personnel at each spatial grid point is calculated as the intersection probability. A preset probability threshold (0.3) is then used to determine the intersection probability. Based on the determined probability results, regional probability marking is performed, with areas where the intersection probability is greater than the preset probability threshold marked as high-risk areas and marked in red. Finally, a movement path probability cloud map is generated, thereby achieving dynamic risk visualization and enabling accurate safety early warning for high-altitude operations.

[0043] The risk level determination unit 40 is used to determine the risk level based on the spatial location of the intersection area and the attribute characteristics of the corresponding target, and generate operation early warning information.

[0044] The specific configuration of the risk level determination unit 40 also includes: establishing a risk assessment index system based on the spatial location, size, and shape of the intersection area, as well as the speed, direction, and type attributes of the corresponding target, including distance, speed, and time risk indicators; using a fuzzy logic algorithm to comprehensively evaluate the risk assessment indicators, classifying them into at least three risk levels: high, medium, and low; and generating corresponding operational early warning signals based on the risk level, including the early warning level, early warning time, early warning location, and response measures.

[0045] Preferably, the risk level is determined based on the spatial location, size, and shape of the intersection area, as well as the speed, direction, and type of the corresponding target. Spatial location refers to the position of the intersection area relative to key components of the tower, such as proximity to high-voltage lines or the tower top; spatial size refers to the volume of the intersection area; spatial shape may be elongated (e.g., the area swept by a crane boom) or dotted (e.g., a personnel standing point); speed is the movement speed of the equipment or personnel, such as a hook moving at 2 m / s or a person walking at 1 m / s; direction is the angle of the movement vector; type refers to the target type weight, such as crane 1.0 > personnel 0.7 > tools 0.3. Then, core risk assessment indicators based on spatial characteristics, dynamic characteristics, and attribute characteristics are established to create a risk assessment indicator system. For example, an intersection area volume greater than 1 m³ is considered high risk; a narrow, elongated area is more dangerous than a dispersed area; the risk doubles when the relative speed is greater than 2 m / s; opposing movements are three times riskier than same-direction movements; the collision weight for a crane-personnel collision is 0.9; and the collision weight for a drone-tool collision is 0.4.

[0046] Preferably, a fuzzy logic algorithm is used to comprehensively evaluate the risk assessment indicators. This involves converting the precisely input spatial location, size, and shape of the intersection area, as well as the speed, direction, and type attributes of the corresponding target, into a fuzzy set. Basic safety thresholds are set: 3m between personnel and equipment, and 1.5m between personnel and tools. Dynamic correction coefficients are introduced, such as wind speed coefficient = 0.05 × wind speed value, and visibility coefficient = 0.02 × insufficient visibility value. The risk assessment indicators are then comprehensively evaluated, classifying them into at least three risk levels: high, medium, and low. Corresponding operational warning signals are generated based on the risk level, including the warning level, warning time, warning location, and response measures. The warning time is the estimated collision time, such as an estimated danger occurring in 8.3 seconds. The warning location is the estimated three-dimensional coordinates of the collision, such as longitude 116.404°, latitude 39.915°, and altitude 152m. Response measures include automated commands, such as the crane immediately stopping lateral movement. When the predicted minimum distance is less than or equal to the safety threshold (the product of the basic safety threshold and the dynamic correction coefficient), if the predicted minimum distance is less than or equal to 0.4 times the safety threshold, it is considered high risk. Operations should be stopped immediately, and audible and visual alarms should be activated, safety ropes should be locked, and the drone rescue net should be launched. If the predicted minimum distance is less than or equal to 0.4 times the safety threshold and less than or equal to 0.6 times the safety threshold, it is considered medium risk. A voice prompt should be given to avoid the obstacle, and the equipment braking components should be activated to reduce the equipment speed. If the predicted minimum distance is greater than or equal to 0.6 times the safety threshold, it is considered low risk. An AR visual warning should be triggered, such as a yellow label on the monitoring interface.

[0047] Furthermore, the tower operation safety early warning system also includes: collecting signal attenuation patterns of typical tower types and constructing a multi-path error compensation library for steel structures; based on the multi-path error compensation library for steel structures, matching the characteristics of the operation area in real time, correcting error points, and resetting the target's position coordinates; and predicting the intersection area based on the reset target position coordinates.

[0048] Preferably, testing equipment is deployed on typical iron towers such as wine glass towers, cat head towers, and converter stations to record signal attenuation characteristics at different locations, including carrier phase jumps and signal-to-noise ratio fluctuations, forming a signal attenuation pattern library. Then, machine learning analysis is used to construct the mapping relationship between tower layout and errors, and a multi-path error compensation library for steel structures is built. The multi-path error compensation library for steel structures is continuously optimized by inverting multi-path errors through dual-frequency RTK terminals worn by operators. Next, the multi-path error compensation library for steel structures is matched with the characteristics of the work area in real time. That is, according to the BIM model of the current tower type, the corresponding error compensation library is loaded, the location of the target and its distance from the nearest steel beam are detected in real time, the compensation value is queried to obtain the correction amount, and then the error point is corrected to reset the position coordinates of the target. Finally, the reset target position coordinates are input into the motion trajectory prediction model to predict the intersection area, thereby improving the accuracy of intersection area prediction and thus improving the accuracy and timeliness of tower operation safety early warning.
