Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of construction safety and quality inspection technology, and in particular to a mobile on-site inspection system and method based on a digital command station and an inspection subject. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the construction industry, safety management, quality control, and progress tracking at construction sites have become increasingly important. Traditional construction site inspections mainly rely on manual labor, which suffers from low efficiency, strong subjectivity, incomplete data collection, and delayed feedback. In recent years, automated equipment such as drones and inspection robots have been gradually applied to construction sites, improving the automation of inspections and the objectivity of data collection.

[0003] However, existing automated inspection systems mostly employ a single inspection entity, such as drones or robots, lacking a collaborative mechanism between multiple entities. This results in limited inspection coverage, making it difficult to comprehensively cover every corner of the construction site. Furthermore, existing systems lack real-time data processing and analysis capabilities, and are deficient in effective instant communication and command capabilities, failing to achieve rapid response and closed-loop management of on-site issues.

[0004] Existing related technologies, such as patent CN119975611A, which proposes a mobile on-site inspection system and method based on a digital command station and inspection subject, include a collaborative inspection system of drones and mobile robots. The system consists of drones and mobile robots, which can achieve physical collaboration through a mechanical docking module, but it does not address personnel collaboration or real-time command. Patent CN120634778A proposes an intelligent inspection system based on BIM models and digital twin technology. This system uses inspection robots to collect on-site data, enabling automatic problem identification, location, and closed-loop management of rectification. However, it does not cover multi-source data fusion and real-time communication command functions. In other words, neither of these technologies constructs a unified command and task scheduling platform integrating personnel, drones, and robots, resulting in significant deficiencies in real-time performance, collaboration, and on-site adaptability.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a mobile on-site inspection system and method that can integrate inspection entities, realize real-time data processing and command and dispatch, support multi-source data fusion display and task closed-loop management, so as to improve the intelligence level and collaborative efficiency of construction site inspection. Summary of the Invention

[0006] This invention overcomes the shortcomings of the prior art and provides a mobile on-site inspection system and method based on a digital command station and inspection subject. By adopting an instant messaging system, an integrated control system, intelligent inspection equipment and a smart construction site system, it creates a comprehensive platform that enables multi-subject collaboration, air-ground integration, real-time data processing and analysis, and on-site instant communication and command.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution: A mobile on-site inspection system based on a digital command station and an inspection body, comprising a digital command station and an inspection body; The digital command post includes inspection personnel, an instant messaging system, an integrated control system, and a smart construction site system; The inspection entities include inspection personnel wearing smart safety helmets, drones, and inspection robots; The digital command station receives inspection tasks through the smart construction site system and schedules the inspection entities to perform inspection tasks through the integrated control system. The various types of on-site data collected by the inspection entity during the execution of its tasks are uploaded in real time to the management platform of the digital command station via wireless communication. The management platform analyzes and processes the received data and pushes the results to the smart construction site system for visualization and subsequent task issuance and tracking.

[0008] Furthermore, the smart helmet is equipped with an AI recognition camera, a first positioning system, a physiological parameter monitoring system, and AR glasses; the AI ​​recognition camera is located at the center of the front of the brim of the smart helmet, the first positioning system is built into the top of the shell of the smart helmet, the physiological parameter monitoring system is located on the inner side of the headband of the smart helmet in contact with the skin, and the AR glasses are hinged to the brim; The AI ​​recognition camera is used to capture on-site video and perform image recognition; the positioning system is used to track the geographical location of the inspection personnel in real time; the physiological parameter monitoring system is used to monitor the vital signs of the inspection personnel; and the AR glasses are used for information overlay display.

[0009] Furthermore, the drone is equipped with a panoramic camera, an AI recognition camera, a laser scanning system, and a second positioning system; the panoramic camera includes several high-definition cameras respectively arranged on the top, bottom, and sides of the four arms of the drone; the AI ​​recognition camera is suspended directly below the belly of the drone; the laser scanning head of the laser scanning system is fixed below the belly of the drone; the second positioning system is located at the highest point of the top of the drone. During high-altitude inspections, location information, video images, unsafe behavior identification data, quality problem identification data, 3D scan data, and panoramic images are uploaded in real time to the management platform of the digital command station.

[0010] Furthermore, the inspection robot is equipped with a power system, a third positioning system, a high-definition AI camera, an infrared camera, a lidar, and environmental monitoring equipment; The power system includes a drive motor and drive wheels connected to the drive motor. The drive wheels are symmetrically located on both sides of the inspection robot. The third positioning system is set at the highest point of the inspection robot body. The high-definition AI camera and infrared camera are located on the gimbal above the front of the inspection robot. The lidar is installed at the front of the inspection robot. The environmental monitoring equipment is distributed around the inspection robot. During ground inspections, location information, video images, unsafe behavior identification data, quality problem identification data, engineering quantity and material identification data, and 3D scan data are uploaded in real time to the management platform of the digital command station.

[0011] Furthermore, the inner side of the outer shell of the smart safety helmet is provided with a honeycomb-shaped cushioning material layer; The inner side of the drive wheel is equipped with a liftable skid. When entering muddy, sandy, or shallow water areas, the skid can be lowered to increase the ground contact area and prevent sinking.

[0012] Furthermore, the management platform performs fusion analysis on the received multi-source data and overlays and displays personnel videos, drone images, and robot point cloud data on the same interface; The smart construction site system is used to generate alarm information, real-scene 3D models, progress warnings and rectification orders, and push them to the site for rectification, thereby realizing closed-loop management of tasks.

[0014] Furthermore, the inspection tasks of the inspection entity are dynamically adjusted by the integrated control system according to the on-site conditions.

[0015] Furthermore, the management platform integrates and displays multi-source data, including the overlay display of personnel videos, drone images, and robot point cloud data.

[0016] Furthermore, the issuance, execution, and verification of the rectification tasks are managed in a closed loop through the smart construction site system, which tracks the progress of rectification and verifies the effectiveness of rectification.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: This invention addresses the problem of insufficient multi-entity collaboration capabilities. By integrating personnel, drones, and robots into a unified task scheduling and execution system, the digital command station model enables true human-machine collaboration. Each inspection entity can receive tasks and execute them independently while maintaining real-time communication with the command station. Through an instant messaging system, the digital command station model allows on-site inspection personnel to receive instructions and provide feedback in real time, thereby improving the efficiency and flexibility of on-site command. Data collected by intelligent devices can be uploaded to the command station management platform in real time, where it is quickly analyzed to promptly identify and respond to safety, quality, and schedule issues. The digital command station model can overlay and display multi-source data, such as personnel video, drone imagery, and robot point clouds, on a single interface, providing decision-makers with a more intuitive and comprehensive information view.

[0018] The accompanying drawings are provided to further illustrate the invention and are used together with the embodiments of the invention to explain the invention. They do not constitute a limitation of the invention. In the drawings: Figure 1 This is an overall inspection flowchart of the mobile on-site inspection system described in this invention; Figure 2 This is a flowchart of the smart safety helmet inspection process; Figure 3 This is a flowchart of the drone inspection process; Figure 4 This is a flowchart of the robot inspection process. Detailed Implementation

[0019] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, this invention claims protection for a mobile on-site inspection system based on a digital command station and inspection entities, including a digital command station and inspection entities; wherein the digital command station includes inspection command personnel, an instant messaging system, an integrated control system, and a smart construction site system. The instant messaging system is used to realize voice, video, and data communication between the digital command station and the on-site inspection entities, as well as between different inspection entities. The integrated control system is responsible for unified task scheduling and instruction issuance to all inspection entities. In this embodiment, the inspection entities include smart safety helmets, drones, and inspection robots; the smart construction site system is responsible for receiving upper-level management instructions to generate inspection tasks and for data visualization and task management. The inspection entities are responsible for performing specific on-site inspection operations, including inspection personnel wearing smart safety helmets, drones, and inspection robots. These three types of inspection entities constitute a three-dimensional inspection network integrating air and ground operations and human-machine collaboration.

[0021] The digital command center receives inspection tasks from the project management system or manually through the smart construction site system. The integrated control system then intelligently decomposes the tasks and schedules them to the most suitable inspection personnel. For example, drones can be prioritized for inspections of large areas; inspection robots can be deployed for relatively dangerous areas such as equipment interiors and basements; and personnel wearing smart safety helmets are deployed for inspection points requiring complex judgment and interaction, offering high flexibility.

[0022] The various types of on-site data collected by the inspection team during the execution of the task are uploaded to the management platform of the digital command station in real time via wireless communication; the management platform analyzes and processes the received data, and pushes the results to the smart construction site system for visualization display and subsequent task issuance and tracking.

[0023] In this embodiment, the smart safety helmet is equipped with an AI recognition camera, a first positioning system, a physiological parameter monitoring system, and AR glasses. Specifically, the AI ​​recognition camera is positioned at the center of the front of the helmet's brim, facilitating the capture of on-site video footage from inspection personnel and enabling real-time image recognition. The first positioning system is located at the top of the helmet shell, minimizing signal obstruction by the human body and enabling real-time tracking of the inspection personnel's geographical location. The physiological parameter monitoring system is located on the inner side of the helmet's headband, in contact with the skin, allowing for the monitoring of the inspection personnel's vital signs via contact sensors and automatic alarms in case of abnormalities. The AR glasses are hinged to the brim and can be lowered or folded away as needed, overlaying digital information onto the wearer's real-world field of vision for augmented reality interaction.

[0024] Furthermore, to enhance safety, the inner side of the smart helmet's outer shell is equipped with a honeycomb-shaped cushioning material layer. This material layer allows the smart helmet to effectively absorb and disperse impact energy through deformation upon impact, providing a certain level of protection for the head.

[0025] The drone is equipped with a panoramic camera, an AI recognition camera, a laser scanning system, and a second positioning system. Specifically, the panoramic camera consists of several high-definition cameras positioned on the top, bottom, and sides of the four arms of the drone, generating panoramic images for comprehensive, blind-spot-free monitoring. The AI ​​recognition camera is mounted on a gimbal directly beneath the drone's belly. The laser scanning head of the laser scanning system is fixed to the underside of the drone's belly. The second positioning system is located at the highest point of the drone's top to ensure optimal satellite signal reception. During high-altitude inspections, the drone flies along a pre-set or dynamically planned route, uploading its own positioning information, video footage from the AI ​​recognition camera and data on identified unsafe behaviors or quality issues, 3D scan data generated by the laser scanning system, and panoramic images from the panoramic camera to the management platform of the digital command station in real time.

[0026] The inspection robot is equipped with a power system, a third positioning system, a high-definition AI camera, an infrared camera, a lidar, and environmental monitoring equipment. The power system includes a drive motor and drive wheels connected to it, symmetrically positioned on both sides of the robot to provide mobility. The third positioning system is located at the highest point of the robot's body to minimize signal obstruction. The high-definition AI camera and infrared camera are mounted together on a gimbal above the front of the robot, enabling dual-light inspection using both visible light and thermal imaging to identify issues such as equipment overheating and pipe leaks. The lidar is mounted at the front of the robot to help build a real-time 3D map of the surrounding environment, enabling simultaneous localization and mapping, as well as obstacle avoidance. The environmental monitoring equipment includes temperature and humidity sensors, VOC sensors, and PM2.5 sensors, which can be distributed around the robot to collect comprehensive environmental parameters.

[0027] Furthermore, to improve terrain adaptability, a liftable skid is installed on the inside of the drive wheel, driven by a cylinder or electric screw. When the robot enters muddy, sandy, or shallow water areas, the skid can be lowered to increase the ground contact area, reduce pressure, effectively prevent the robot from sinking, and ensure the continuous operation of the inspection task.

[0028] During ground inspections, the inspection robot moves along a preset route and uploads its location information, dual-light video images, identified unsafe behaviors, quality problems, or engineering material data, 3D scan data generated by lidar, and environmental monitoring data to the management platform of the digital command station in real time.

[0029] The management platform integrates and analyzes multi-source data received from smart safety helmets, drones, and inspection robots. It can correlate and overlay detailed personnel videos, macroscopic drone imagery, and precise 3D information from robot point cloud data. In one preferred embodiment, the management platform provides a unified command screen interface, allowing for the overlay display of real-time video feeds from inspection personnel, aerial orthophotos from drones, and 3D point cloud models collected by inspection robots. This creates a scene platform that integrates multiple information sources, providing command personnel with comprehensive control.

[0030] The smart construction site system, based on the analysis results from the management platform, generates alarm information, updates the real-world 3D model, issues progress warnings, and generates specific rectification task orders. This information and tasks are pushed to the mobile terminals of relevant personnel or the AR glasses on the smart safety helmets at the site, driving on-site problem rectification. After rectification is completed, on-site personnel provide feedback on the rectification results through the system, which can trigger a review process, thus achieving closed-loop management of the entire task process from problem discovery, task issuance, on-site rectification to effect verification.

[0031] The present invention also claims protection for an inspection method applied to the system of any of the above embodiments, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Task Issuance; Create and issue specific inspection task instructions through the smart construction site system, specifying the inspection area, content, and standards.

[0032] Step Two: Task Scheduling and Execution; After receiving the task, the digital command station intelligently schedules the inspection entities to perform the inspection through the integrated control system. This includes instructing inspection personnel wearing smart safety helmets to conduct ground inspections in designated areas, controlling drones to conduct high-altitude inspections along preset or dynamically planned routes, and guiding inspection robots to conduct ground inspections along predetermined or autonomously planned routes.

[0033] Step 3: Data collection and uploading; Each inspection entity collects on-site data during the inspection process and uploads this data to the management platform of the digital command station in real time and synchronously via wireless communication network.

[0034] Step 4: Data Analysis and Identification; The management platform integrates, stores, and intelligently analyzes the received multi-source heterogeneous data to identify existing security issues, quality defects, or schedule problems.

[0035] Step 5: Results Display and Closed-Loop Management; The analyzed and identified results are pushed to the smart construction site system for comprehensive visual display. Based on the displayed results, the smart construction site system automatically generates and distributes specific rectification tasks to relevant responsible persons. On-site personnel receive the tasks and implement the rectification. The system provides feedback on the rectification information, tracks the rectification progress, and can automatically trigger a review process to verify the rectification effect, thereby achieving closed-loop management of problem discovery, assignment, handling, and verification.

[0036] In step two, the inspection tasks of the inspection unit can be dynamically adjusted by the integrated control system based on site conditions. For example, when a drone detects an emergency fire, the system can immediately instruct nearby inspection robots to go and confirm the situation and evacuate personnel, while simultaneously replanning the drone's flight path for continuous monitoring.

[0037] In addition, in steps four and five, the management platform integrates and displays multi-source data, specifically by overlaying personnel videos, drone images, and robot point cloud data on the same interface to provide an immersive command view.

[0038] This invention addresses the problem of insufficient multi-entity collaboration capabilities. By integrating personnel, drones, and robots into a unified task scheduling and execution system, the digital command station model enables true human-machine collaboration. Each inspection entity can receive tasks and execute them independently while maintaining real-time communication with the command station. Through an instant messaging system, the digital command station model allows on-site inspection personnel to receive instructions and provide feedback in real time, thereby improving the efficiency and flexibility of on-site command. Data collected by intelligent devices can be uploaded to the command station management platform in real time, where it is quickly analyzed to promptly identify and respond to safety, quality, and schedule issues. The digital command station model can overlay and display multi-source data, such as personnel video, drone imagery, and robot point clouds, on a single interface, providing decision-makers with a more intuitive and comprehensive information view.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. However, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
