Description

Balance car cruise law enforcement method and device

[Technical Field]

The present invention relates to the field of balance vehicle control, and more particularly to a method and apparatus for balancing vehicle cruise enforcement.

【Background technique】

Various road surface violations are an important cause of traffic congestion. However, due to the large number of urban roads, it is impossible to dispatch traffic police in each section to enforce law in the past 24 hours. Therefore, the existing police force arrangements can only be carried out on a small random random inspection. The intensity is weak, most drivers still have luck, and the effect of governance violation is not obvious.

[Summary of the Invention]

The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a balanced car cruise law enforcement method and apparatus for improving the effect of the governance violation.

The object of the present invention is achieved by the following technical solutions:

According to an aspect of the present invention, a method for law enforcement of a balance vehicle cruise includes the following:

Enter the law enforcement status according to the location information and time; initiate self-balancing;

Looking for illegal vehicles that are at rest;

Shooting the license plate number of the illegal vehicle;

Print the ticket and send the penalty information to the corresponding owner.

Further, methods for finding a violating vehicle in a stationary state include:

Obtain an image of the main driver's seat;

Perform face recognition processing;

If no person is found in the main cab, it is judged to be a violation of the vehicle.

Through face recognition technology, the accuracy of judgment can be improved and large-scale false penalties can be avoided. In addition, the technical solution does not need to identify who a specific person is, as long as it is determined that there is someone in the car, the technical solution is relatively Simple, it can improve the accuracy of judgment in a low-cost way.

Further, methods for finding a violating vehicle in a stationary state include:

Obtain a heat map of the vehicle;

Compare the difference between the engine and the car area and other areas to determine whether the vehicle is illegal.

People are warm-blooded animals, and their thermal maps are characterized by remarkable characteristics and stability. Therefore, it can be judged by the heat map that the calculation amount of image processing can be significantly reduced, and the implementation cost is reduced. In addition, even if some of the windows are pulled, the heat map can be used in a situation that cannot be judged by conventional shooting means, and the scope of application is wider.

Further, the method of printing the ticket and issuing the penalty information to the corresponding owner includes:

Send the license plate number to the cloud server;

The cloud server queries the registered owner according to the license plate number;

Send the penalty information to the owner via SMS, email or WeChat.

Further, the method of entering the law enforcement state according to the location information and time includes:

Start self-balancing after entering the law enforcement state;

Drive automatically according to the preset route.

Further, the method for finding a violating vehicle in a stationary state includes:

Judging the motion state of the object in front;

When the current object is at a standstill, take a picture of the object in front and compare the picture with the image library of the vehicle stored in the cloud;

If the comparison result determines that the current object is a vehicle, an image of the main driving position is obtained;

Perform face recognition processing;

Further, the object feature includes trait information, height information, and width information;

When the trait information is rigid and the height exceeds the first threshold, the bypass route is planned according to the width information; or the trait information is flexible, and the height exceeds the second threshold, and the bypass route is planned according to the width information; the second threshold is greater than the first threshold ;

When the trait information is flexible and the height is less than or equal to the second threshold, the balance car is controlled to climb from the top of the front object.

Judging the motion state of the object in front;

When the current object is at a standstill, take a picture of the object in front and identify whether there is a license plate number in the picture;

If the license plate number exists, it is judged that the current object is a vehicle, and then the image of the main driving position is acquired for face recognition processing; if the main cab is not found, it is determined to be a violation of the vehicle.

Further, the method for determining the motion state of the front object includes:

Taking a picture of the object in front at a preset time interval;

Compare the position of the front object in any two pictures. If the position is the same, it is judged to be stationary; otherwise, it is judged to be motion.

According to another aspect of the present invention, a balance vehicle cruise enforcement apparatus is disclosed, including:

Means for entering a law enforcement state based on location information and time;

Means for initiating self-balancing;

Means for finding illegal vehicles in a stationary state;

Means for photographing the license plate number of a violating vehicle;

A device for printing a ticket and sending a penalty message to the corresponding owner.

Compared with the prior art, the technical effect of the present invention is that the present invention performs road violation enforcement by balancing the vehicle. The balance car is low in cost and small in size and can be used on a large scale. The balance car of the invention can realize the automatic driving in the unmanned state by using the no-load balancing technology created by the inventor, and can perform the patrol law enforcement by the remote positioning control, and the road section that is not allowed to be suspended is allowed to be in the period of not allowing the violation. Achieve large-scale, high-density exclusion, significantly reduce the driver's luck, significantly reduce the phenomenon of violations.
