A coal bunker modeling method based on three-dimensional positioning and two-dimensional mapping

A coal bunker modeling method based on three-dimensional positioning and two-dimensional mapping. To improve the efficiency of bunker cleaning at the dock, sensors are used to obtain the internal information of the coal bunker. The three-dimensional lidar information and inertial measurement unit are used to perform real-time positioning on the push rake used for bunker cleaning operations. A fixed rotation sensor composed of a single-line radar and a DC servo motor is used to sense the coal bunker environment. The front-end positioning and serial port rotation angle are used as the basis for single-frame matching to obtain a complete point cloud inside the coal bunker. The superimposed point clouds are subjected to semantic fusion segmentation to classify the coal material point clouds, complete the outer boundary of the point clouds, fill the internal void point clouds, and calculate the volume of the coal material based on the three-dimensional grid point cloud of the coal material. The calculated information is fed back into the control logic of the upper computer to improve the efficiency of the entire push rake bunker cleaning operation.
