Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Manual monitoring of patrol areas by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) leads to errors and omissions in target detection due to large coverage areas, requiring multiple flights and extended patrol times due to limited battery life.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus for target detection that involves obtaining and displaying patrol targets at preset positions with multiple postures, allowing for comprehensive coverage of the area without manual whole-process monitoring, thereby reducing errors and shortening flight time by adjusting the UAV's posture to cover all targets in a single patrol.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If manual monitoring of patrol pictures is performed, then target detection accuracy can be maintained, but errors and omissions in target statistics occur due to large coverage areas
Solution Approach 1:
The patrol area is divided into multiple patrol sub-areas, each covered by the patrol device at a preset patrol position through different patrol postures. The system segments the large coverage area into manageable portions that can be systematically detected and recorded, ensuring complete target statistics without manual monitoring errors.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements automatic target detection with feedback mechanisms that record and verify target information across multiple patrol postures. This closed-loop feedback system ensures target detection accuracy and completeness by automatically cross-checking and consolidating target data from different patrol sub-areas.
2Area of stationary object
If conventional patrol with planned patrol paths is used, then complete patrol coverage can be achieved, but patrol time is excessively long due to multiple flights required
Solution Approach 1:
The patrol device utilizes multiple patrol postures (angular/directional dimensions) at a preset patrol position to cover the entire patrol area. Instead of moving through multiple flight paths, the system changes orientation angles to achieve complete area coverage in a single patrol operation, significantly reducing patrol time while maintaining comprehensive coverage.
Solution Approach 2:
The system dynamically adjusts patrol postures and angles during the patrol operation to optimize area coverage. By making real-time dynamic adjustments to the patrol device's orientation and detection angles, the system achieves complete patrol area coverage more efficiently than static pre-planned paths.
3Area of stationary object
If multiple flights are performed to complete patrol area coverage, then complete patrol can be achieved, but flight time is limited by battery life
Solution Approach 1:
The patrol device covers the entire patrol area by utilizing multiple patrol postures and detection angles at a preset position, eliminating the need for multiple battery-consuming flights. This dimensional approach to area coverage achieves complete patrol within a single battery operation.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs complete patrol area coverage and target detection within a single flight operation, making the patrol device self-sufficient within its battery life constraints. The optimized single-flight patrol methodology eliminates the need for battery recharging or additional flights to complete the patrol mission.
4Productivity
If the patrol device changes postures at preset patrol position, then all patrol targets can be detected in single patrol, but detection complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system systematically changes patrol parameters such as detection angles, posture orientations, and scanning patterns at preset patrol positions. These controlled parameter changes enable complete target detection in a single patrol while maintaining manageable operational complexity through standardized parameter adjustment protocols.

AI summary
The present disclosure provides a patrol target detection method and apparatus, a device, and a storage medium. The method includes: obtaining patrol targets patrolled by a patrol device at a preset patrol position in multiple patrol postures sequentially and geographical positions of the patrol targets, the multiple patrol postures being different, patrol sub-areas patrolled by the patrol device at the preset patrol position in the multiple patrol postures sequentially forming a patrol area; and displaying the patrol targets at the geographical positions in a patrol map. According to the technical solution, errors and omissions in target statistics can be avoided and rapid detection of the patrol targets in the patrol area can be achieved.
