As shown in Figure 1, embodiment of the present invention provides a kind of method for unmanned vehicle detection barrier, this method The following steps are included:
Step S10, the front of detection unmanned vehicle direction of travel is with the presence or absence of obstacle and unmanned vehicle and resistance Horizontal distance between block material.
Step S20, in the case where detecting the presence of obstacle, control unmanned vehicle moves in the vertical direction.
Step S30 detects horizontal distance of the unmanned vehicle under different terrain clearances between obstacle.
Step S40, detection unmanned vehicle move in the vertical direction during in the horizontal direction on travel distance.
Step S50, in the horizontal direction according to the variable quantity of horizontal distance and unmanned vehicle corresponding with the variable quantity On travel distance determine whether obstacle is barrier.
In this way, when unmanned vehicle detects that front, can be by under detection different height there are in the case where obstacle The variable quantity of horizontal distance and corresponding travel distance judge the obstacle in front between unmanned vehicle and front obstacle It whether is barrier that trees, electric pole or building etc. are not easy to cross, so as to effectively avoid unmanned vehicle and barrier It collides, the detection method is simple, is easily achieved and at low cost.
Specifically, unmanned vehicle can be plant protection drone, unmanned plane of taking photo by plane, patrol unmanned machine or mapping unmanned plane Deng, it is carried out in operation process in unmanned vehicle, it can be by being located at the horizontal distance measuring unit detection in front of the unmanned vehicle The front of unmanned vehicle whether there is obstacle, and there are obstacle, and detection unmanned vehicle and front hinder Horizontal distance between block material.Wherein, which can be tellurometer survey module, ultrasonic distance measuring module, infrared Range finder module, laser ranging module or depth perception camera etc..There are in the case where obstacle in front of detecting, can control Unmanned vehicle processed moves in the vertical direction, and detects unmanned vehicle and be under different terrain clearances between obstacle Horizontal distance.Wherein, during unmanned vehicle moves in the vertical direction, a sub-level can be detected every preset time Distance or every movement preset vertical distance and detect a horizontal distance.The preset time and default vertical distance can be according to realities Border situation predefines.It is understood that unmanned vehicle may be used also during unmanned vehicle moves in the vertical direction There can be travel speed in the horizontal direction, it is therefore desirable to while detecting the process that unmanned vehicle moves in the vertical direction In in the horizontal direction on travel distance.As shown in Figures 2 and 3, when obstacle is that the blocking surfaces such as trees, building or electric pole become In vertically or when slightly object inclined to unmanned vehicle direction, the change of unmanned vehicle horizontal distance at different terrain clearances Change amount is greater than or equal to forward travel distance during unmanned vehicle moves in the vertical direction, therefore can be according to nothing People's aircraft is sentenced in the travel distance of the variable quantity unmanned vehicle corresponding with the variable quantity of the horizontal distance of different height Whether the obstacle in disconnected front is barrier.
For example, as shown in Figures 2 to 4, unmanned vehicle is moved to horizontal position B by horizontal position A, when nobody flies When the horizontal position of row device is A, the horizontal distance away from obstacle is d1, and the ground clearance away from ground is h1, at this time due to nobody Aircraft detects that there are obstacles in front, therefore unmanned vehicle starts to move in the vertical direction.For example, unmanned vehicle Can climb a Duan Gaodu, and be moved to horizontal position B.When the horizontal position of unmanned vehicle is B, the interval away from barrier Distance is d1 ', and the ground clearance away from ground is h1 '.Unmanned vehicle is moved to what horizontal position B was passed through by horizontal position A Travel distance is l1.When the front of unmanned vehicle is the barriers such as vertical trees shown in Fig. 2 or shown in Fig. 3 to nobody When the barriers such as the inclined trees in aircraft direction, horizontal distance d1, horizontal distance d1 ' and travel distance l1 meet d1-d1 ' >=l1, therefore in the case that the difference of horizontal distance d1 and horizontal distance d1 ' is greater than or equal to travel distance l1, it can determine nothing There are barrier as shown in Figure 2 or Figure 3 in front of people aircraft, this barrier unmanned vehicle not easily passs through the modes such as climb It crosses, it is therefore desirable to control unmanned vehicle hovering, rerouting or make a return voyage, bump against to avoid with barrier.And when it is horizontal away from In the case where being less than travel distance l1 from the difference of d1 and horizontal distance d1 ', it can determine in front of unmanned vehicle and exist such as Fig. 4 institute Slope shown etc. can be by the non-barrier crossed that climbs, at this time can be by adjusting unmanned vehicle in the vertical direction Movement speed, to pass through the obstacle.
In a kind of optional embodiment of the present invention, step S40 may include: horizontal distance variable quantity and advance away from In the case that difference between is within the scope of pre-determined distance, determine that obstacle is barrier.
Specifically, as shown in Figures 2 to 4, in variable quantity △ d (the △ d=d1- for judging travel distance l1 and horizontal distance D1 ') between size relation when, the two can be made the difference, difference s (s=d1-d1 '-l1) within a preset range the case where Under, it can determine that the obstacle in front of unmanned vehicle is barrier.For example, when needing to judge whether obstacle is Fig. 2 or Fig. 3 Shown in barrier when, pre-determined distance range can be set to [0 ,+∞), i.e., when horizontal distance d1 and horizontal distance d1 ' it In the case that difference is greater than or equal to travel distance l1, determine that there are barriers as shown in Figure 2 or Figure 3 in front of unmanned vehicle. However, the barriers such as trees can be tilted to the direction away from unmanned vehicle as shown in figure 5, in some cases, at this time due to The blocking surface of barrier is still very steep, therefore unmanned vehicle is still difficult to cross, and horizontal distance d1 and horizontal distance at this time The difference of d1 ' is less than travel distance l1.In order to accurately determine barrier shown in fig. 5, it is therefore desirable to adjust above-mentioned default Distance range.In general, being easy to happen inclined barrier is trees, electric pole etc., and it is relative to the inclined of vertical direction Digression degree is not too big.Therefore can be by statistics trees, electric pole etc. under inclination conditions, top position and bottom position are in water Square upward distance determines pre-determined distance range, such as in the case where unit is millimeter, which can be with Be set as [- 100 ,+∞).
In a kind of optional embodiment of the present invention, the method for unmanned vehicle detection barrier can also include:
Step S41, the moving distance of detection unmanned vehicle in the vertical direction.
Step S42 is determined according to the moving distance of unmanned vehicle, the variable quantity of horizontal distance and travel distance and is stopped The slope of object.
Step S43 determines that obstacle is barrier in the case where the slope of obstacle is in default slope range.
Specifically, as shown in Figures 2 to 5, it can be detected by being located at the vertical distance measuring unit of unmanned vehicle bottom Unmanned vehicle is in the ground clearance at different terrain clearances, and then can calculate unmanned vehicle in the vertical direction Moving distance h=h1 '-h1, wherein h1 is ground clearance when unmanned vehicle is located at location A, and h1 ' is located at for unmanned vehicle Ground clearance when B location.After determining moving distance h, slope tan θ=h/s of obstacle can be calculated, wherein s=d1- d1'-l1.After determining slope tan θ, according to the size of slope and the tilt angle of positive and negative determining front obstacle and it can incline Tilted direction.Therefore, slope range locating for barrier can be preset according to the actual situation, before unmanned vehicle detects When the slope of sheet resistance block material is in the default slope range, it can determine in front of unmanned vehicle as such as Fig. 2, Fig. 3 or Fig. 5 institute The barrier shown.
It should be noted that when unmanned vehicle encounters obstacle, unmanned vehicle cross the ability of the obstacle with The maximum climbing speed of the unmanned vehicle is related.In the case where the travel speed of the horizontal direction of unmanned vehicle determines, The maximum climbing speed of unmanned vehicle is bigger, then the unmanned vehicle can cross slope the slope upper limit it is also bigger.Therefore, The greatest gradient that the obstacle that unmanned vehicle can be crossed can be determined according to the maximum climbing speed of unmanned vehicle, into And above-mentioned pre-determined distance range and default slope range can be determined according to the greatest gradient.
In a kind of optional embodiment of the present invention, unmanned vehicle, can be first in the case where detecting obstacle Judge whether the horizontal distance between unmanned vehicle and obstacle is less than or equal to pre-determined distance threshold value, and in unmanned flight In the case that horizontal distance between device and obstacle is less than or equal to the pre-determined distance threshold value, unmanned vehicle is controlled vertical It is moved on direction.
Specifically, it needs to execute plant protection operation or mapping operation etc. by default course line in flight due to unmanned vehicle and appoint Business.Therefore a distance threshold can be preset according to the actual situation, only when the level between unmanned vehicle and obstacle In the case that distance is less than or equal to the pre-determined distance threshold value, just controls unmanned vehicle and move in the vertical direction, to reduce Influence to the tasks such as plant protection operation or operation of taking photo by plane.
Method in a kind of optional embodiment of the present invention, for unmanned vehicle detection barrier further include: true In the case where determining obstacle for barrier, control unmanned vehicle is moved in the lateral direction with cut-through object.
Specifically, when determining in front of unmanned vehicle as such as Fig. 2, Fig. 3 or barrier shown in fig. 5, it can control nothing People's aircraft is moved up in the right and left vertical with plane where horizontal direction and vertical direction.For example, unmanned vehicle can To move a certain distance to the left, and in the case where detecting that barrier is not present in front, move further along.It is moving forward After certain distance, unmanned vehicle returns preset operation course line, to continue operation around the barrier.
As shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7, embodiment of the present invention also provides a kind of dress for unmanned vehicle detection barrier It sets, which includes detection module 10 and control module 20.It is electrically connected between detection module 10 and control module 20.Wherein, Detection module 10 be configured as the front of detection unmanned vehicle direction of travel with the presence or absence of obstacle and unmanned vehicle with Horizontal distance between obstacle.Control module 20 is configured as in the case where detecting the presence of obstacle, is controlled nobody and is flown Row device moves in the vertical direction, and obtains horizontal distance of the unmanned vehicle under different terrain clearances between obstacle And unmanned vehicle move in the vertical direction during in the horizontal direction on travel distance, then according to horizontal distance Variable quantity and unmanned vehicle corresponding with the variable quantity travel distance in the horizontal direction determine obstacle whether be Barrier.Wherein, which can include but is not limited to single-chip microcontroller, chip, integrated circuit, microcontroller or processor Deng.
In this way, when unmanned vehicle detects that front, can be by under detection different height there are in the case where obstacle The variable quantity of horizontal distance and corresponding travel distance judge the obstacle in front between unmanned vehicle and front obstacle It whether is barrier that trees, electric pole or building etc. are not easy to cross, so as to effectively avoid unmanned vehicle and barrier It collides, the detection method is simple, is easily achieved and at low cost.
Specifically, unmanned vehicle can be plant protection drone, unmanned plane of taking photo by plane, patrol unmanned machine or mapping unmanned plane Deng.Detection unit 10 may include the horizontal distance measuring unit 12 in front of unmanned vehicle, carry out operation in unmanned vehicle In the process, the front that unmanned vehicle can be detected by horizontal distance measuring unit 12 whether there is obstacle, and stop existing In the case where object, the horizontal distance between unmanned vehicle and front obstacle is detected by horizontal distance measuring unit 12.Wherein, should Horizontal distance measuring unit 12 can be tellurometer survey module, ultrasonic distance measuring module, infrared distance measurement module, laser ranging module or depth Degree perception camera etc..There are in the case where obstacle in front of detecting, control module 20 can control unmanned vehicle and exist Moved on vertical direction, and by horizontal distance measuring unit 12 detect unmanned vehicle be under different terrain clearances with obstacle it Between horizontal distance.Wherein, during unmanned vehicle moves in the vertical direction, control module 20 can be when default Between a horizontal distance or every movement detected by horizontal distance measuring unit 12 preset vertical distance and pass through horizontal distance measuring unit 12 Detect a horizontal distance.The preset time and default vertical distance can predefine according to the actual situation.It is understood that It is that during unmanned vehicle moves in the vertical direction, unmanned vehicle is also possible to traveling in the horizontal direction Speed, it is therefore desirable at the same detect during unmanned vehicle moves in the vertical direction the traveling in the horizontal direction away from From the travel distance can for example pass through the GPS of unmanned vehicle (Global Positioning System, global positioning system System) navigation modules such as module detect.As shown in Figures 2 and 3, when obstacle is that the blocking surfaces such as trees, building or electric pole become In vertically or when slightly object inclined to unmanned vehicle direction, the change of unmanned vehicle horizontal distance at different terrain clearances Change amount is greater than or equal to forward travel distance during unmanned vehicle moves in the vertical direction, therefore control module 20 Can according to unmanned vehicle the variable quantity unmanned vehicle corresponding with the variable quantity of the horizontal distance of different height row Whether the obstacle that front is judged into distance is barrier.
For example, as shown in Figures 2 to 4, unmanned vehicle is moved to horizontal position B by horizontal position A, when nobody flies When the horizontal position of row device is A, the horizontal distance away from obstacle is d1, and the ground clearance away from ground is h1, at this time due to nobody Aircraft detects that there are obstacles in front, therefore control module 20 needs to control unmanned vehicle and starts to move in the vertical direction It is dynamic.It climbs a Duan Gaodu for example, control module 20 can control unmanned vehicle, and is moved to horizontal position B.Work as unmanned flight When the horizontal position of device is B, the spacing distance away from barrier is d1 ', and the ground clearance away from ground is h1 '.Unmanned vehicle by It is l1 that horizontal position A, which is moved to the travel distance that horizontal position B is passed through, and travel distance l1 can pass through unmanned vehicle Navigation module obtains.When the front of unmanned vehicle is the barriers such as vertical trees shown in Fig. 2 or shown in Fig. 3 to nobody When the barriers such as the inclined trees in aircraft direction, horizontal distance d1, horizontal distance d1 ' and travel distance l1 meet d1-d1 ' >=l1, therefore in the case that the difference of horizontal distance d1 and horizontal distance d1 ' is greater than or equal to travel distance l1, control module 20 It can determine in front of unmanned vehicle that this barrier unmanned vehicle not easily passs through there are barrier as shown in Figure 2 or Figure 3 The modes such as climb are crossed, it is therefore desirable to be controlled unmanned vehicle hovering, rerouting or be maked a return voyage, bump against to avoid with barrier. And in the case that the difference of horizontal distance d1 and horizontal distance d1 ' is less than travel distance l1, control module 20 can determine nobody There are slopes as shown in Figure 4 etc. in front of aircraft can be by the non-barrier crossed that climbs, at this time can be by adjusting nothing The movement speed of people's aircraft in the vertical direction, to pass through the obstacle.
In a kind of optional embodiment of the present invention, control module 20 is configured as between unmanned vehicle and obstacle Horizontal distance variable quantity travel distance corresponding with the variable quantity between difference within the scope of pre-determined distance in the case where, Determine that the obstacle in front of unmanned vehicle is barrier.
Specifically, as shown in Figures 2 to 4, in variable quantity △ d (the △ d=d1- for judging travel distance l1 and horizontal distance D1 ') between size relation when, the two can be made the difference, difference s (s=d1-d1 '-l1) within a preset range the case where Under, it can determine that the obstacle in front of unmanned vehicle is barrier.For example, when needing to judge whether obstacle is Fig. 2 or Fig. 3 Shown in barrier when, pre-determined distance range can be set to [0 ,+∞), i.e., when horizontal distance d1 and horizontal distance d1 ' it In the case that difference is greater than or equal to travel distance l1, determine that there are barriers as shown in Figure 2 or Figure 3 in front of unmanned vehicle. However, the barriers such as trees can be tilted to the direction away from unmanned vehicle as shown in figure 5, in some cases, at this time due to The blocking surface of barrier is still very steep, therefore unmanned vehicle is still difficult to cross, and horizontal distance d1 and horizontal distance at this time The difference of d1 ' is less than travel distance l1.In order to accurately determine barrier shown in fig. 5, it is therefore desirable to adjust above-mentioned default Distance range.In general, being easy to happen inclined barrier is trees, electric pole etc., and it is relative to the inclined of vertical direction Digression degree is not too big.Therefore can be by statistics trees, electric pole etc. under inclination conditions, top position and bottom position are in water Square upward distance determines pre-determined distance range, such as in the case where unit is millimeter, which can be with Be set as [- 100 ,+∞).
In a kind of optional embodiment of the present invention, detection module 10 can also include vertical distance measuring unit 11, this is vertical Distance measuring unit 11 is configured as the ground clearance of detection unmanned vehicle, and then can determine unmanned vehicle by ground clearance Moving distance in moving process in the vertical direction.Wherein, which can be tellurometer survey module, ultrasound Wave range finder module, infrared distance measurement module, laser ranging module or depth perception camera etc..Control module 20 is additionally configured to root The slope of obstacle is determined according to the moving distance of unmanned vehicle, the variable quantity of horizontal distance and travel distance, and is being stopped In the case that the slope of object is in default slope range, determine that obstacle is barrier.
Specifically, as shown in Figures 2 to 5, control module 20 can pass through the vertical ranging positioned at unmanned vehicle bottom Unit 11 detects the ground clearance that unmanned vehicle is at different terrain clearances, and then can calculate unmanned vehicle and exist Moving distance h=h1 '-h1 on vertical direction, wherein h1 is ground clearance when unmanned vehicle is located at location A, and h1 ' is nothing People's aircraft is located at ground clearance when B location.After determining moving distance h, slope tan θ=h/ of obstacle can be calculated S, wherein s=d1-d1 '-l1.It, can be according to obstacle in front of the size and positive and negative determination of slope after determining slope tan θ Tilt angle and inclined direction.Therefore, slope range locating for barrier can be preset according to the actual situation, when detecting When the slope of front obstacle is in the default slope range, control module 20 can be determined in front of unmanned vehicle as schemed 2, Fig. 3 or barrier shown in fig. 5.
It should be noted that when unmanned vehicle encounters obstacle, unmanned vehicle cross the ability of the obstacle with The maximum climbing speed of the unmanned vehicle is related.In the case where the travel speed of the horizontal direction of unmanned vehicle determines, The maximum climbing speed of unmanned vehicle is bigger, then the unmanned vehicle can cross slope the slope upper limit it is also bigger.Therefore, The greatest gradient that the obstacle that unmanned vehicle can be crossed can be determined according to the maximum climbing speed of unmanned vehicle, into And above-mentioned pre-determined distance range and default slope range can be determined according to the greatest gradient.
