Background
With the continuous rise of labor cost, people pursue safe and efficient operation environments, and the continuous promotion of industrial automation 4.0 and an artificial intelligence digital technology promotes the intellectualization of the port industry. However, most of the containers at the wharf are still handled manually except for a part of the automated wharf. For example, it is a very delicate matter to precisely insert the twist locks at the four corners of the spreader into the corresponding lock holes at the top of the container, and not only requires the driver to be skilled in operation, but also the attention must be kept highly focused. If manual grasping is performed continuously, the labor intensity is considerable. Due to the fact that the physical strength of a driver is reduced or under the condition that weather and operation environments are poor (for example, the weather conditions that sight lines are poor at night, sunlight is refracted through sea water or a container and dazzles, rain, haze and the like), the driver cannot clearly see the position of a lifting appliance and easily causes low efficiency and potential safety hazards only by feeling, for example, the risk that the container is toppled over due to the fact that the container is stacked irregularly, the risk that the container falls off from the air due to the fact that a lock catch cannot be grabbed by the container during lifting, or the risk that people or objects are hit by the container due to the fact that the driver cannot see whether people or objects exist in a yard or under the cabin operation range, and the like are caused.

In one embodiment, camera 120 may include a Time of flight (TOF) laser sensor and/or a high definition optical 42 zoom movement, although the invention is not limited in this respect. For example, the camera 120 may perform NCAST image difference and clustering operations by using TOF technology and/or depth camera self-learning motion detection image processing technology, etc., analyze the height of the spreader to be displayed on the monitoring screen, and/or drive the camera to optically zoom and track the movement of the spreader in real time.
In one embodiment, the light compensation device 130 may perform light intensity light compensation based on the spreader position/height. For example, the light compensation device 130 may be used to provide light compensation to the camera 120 to improve the imaging clarity of the camera 120 and the spreader position accuracy. For example, the lamp compensation device 130 may include a laser array Light Emitting Diode (LED) compensation lamp, etc., but the present invention is not limited thereto.
In one embodiment, the PLC server 140 may be used to convert the spreader height to an analog output. In one embodiment, the PLC 140 may be located on a port machine such as a crane, for example, although the invention is not limited thereto.
The Video transmitter/server 150 may include a Video transmitter and a Video server, wherein the Video transmitter may be configured to set up a stable real-time Video Signal and data loop, and provide communication interfaces such as MODBUS, RS485, Composite Video Broadcast Signal (CVBS) and the like for the Video server and the camera 120. The video transmitter may be used to transmit data modulated carrier to the power line to avoid the system to additionally run dedicated lines, but the invention is not limited thereto. The video server can be used for carrying out analog/digital (A/D) and digital/analog (D/A) conversion on the video signals and/or the data collected by each sensor, and carrying out corresponding control and adjustment after analyzing and comparing the data.
The display 160 may include an industrial display screen or other display device to display images taken by the camera 120 and the spreader position in real time.
Referring to fig. 1, in one embodiment, when the system 100 is powered on or the crane spreader moves, the PLC 140 may issue a first instruction to the video server 150 to immediately switch the monitoring picture to the camera real-time picture, so that the video server 150 controls the display 160 to switch the monitoring picture to the real-time picture photographed by the camera 120. PLC 140 may also issue a second instruction to camera 120 to immediately begin image sampling, data analysis, and/or comparison to drive camera 120 optical zoom lock spreader. The video server 150 may also perform frame optimization according to the position/height data of the spreader and/or the video frames, so as to drive the light compensation device 130 to perform light compensation according to the real-time position/height of the spreader, and/or analyze whether there is a human intrusion in the monitored area to give an alarm, or control the camera 120 according to the weather environment during operation, etc., so as to optimize the imaging effect.
Referring to fig. 1 and 7, in one embodiment, the PLC 140 is configured to convert an analog current signal (e.g., 4mA-20mA, etc., although the invention is not limited thereto) based on the height of the spreader. PLC 140 may provide an analog current signal to current signal acquisition scaling processor 716 to scale the acquired current signal. The current signal acquisition scaling processor 716 may scale and optimize the data from the PLC 140 and compare the stabilized voltage data with a pre-stored database and provide the comparison results to the comparison voter 718 for comparison and voting with other sampled signals. And driving the camera 120 to zoom, focus and/or image the optical lens according to the comparison voting result of the comparison voter, so as to ensure that the lens of the camera 120 tracks the movement of the lifting appliance in real time to zoom in or zoom out.
Referring to fig. 1 and 7, if the relative origin height of the spreader with respect to the camera 120 is 0 meters, the PLC 140 may preset an output current 4mA to current-voltage converter. The current-to-voltage converter 712 may convert the current to a voltage of 0V. The 0V voltage can be optimized to a stable voltage through a third arithmetic unit (e.g., a single chip microcomputer) 714 by comparison, for example, 100 times per second, so as to obtain the zoom number of the optical zoom lens (lens) of the camera 120 through comparison and conversion with a pre-stored database. The third operator 714 issues a corresponding instruction to the comparison voter 718 to cause the comparison voter 718 to compare the obtained zoom amount with other sampled data from the camera 120. If the zoom number is the same as that of other sampling data, the control processor drives the optical zoom movement of the camera 120 to perform corresponding zoom and focusing, so that the automatic tracking of the camera locking hanger action is realized.
In another example, if the relative origin height of the spreader with respect to the camera 120 is 10 meters, the PLC 140 may be programmed to output a current of 10mA to the current/voltage converter 712 to convert the current to a voltage of 1.0V. The voltage of 1.0V is optimized to a stable voltage through the third operator 714, for example, 100 comparisons per second, and converted to a pre-stored database to obtain the zoom number of the optical zoom movement. The third operator 714 issues a corresponding instruction to the comparison voter 718 to compare the magnification-varying amount with other sampled data. If the zooming data is the same as other sampling data, the control processor 724 drives the optical zooming movement core to perform corresponding zooming and focusing, so that the automatic tracking camera locks the hanger to act.
Although the automatic tracking system of fig. 1 is described above with respect to a port crane as an example, the present invention is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the automatic tracking system 100 may be used for, for example, automatic tracking and position display of port crane shore crane spreader positions, and/or alarm of personnel intruding into a work area; and/or the position of a port crane field bridge lifting appliance is automatically tracked and displayed, and/or personnel in an operation area intrudes into the port crane field bridge lifting appliance for alarming; and/or collision avoidance and distance measurement of industrial automation equipment; and/or object movement automatic tracking and behavior identification in special monitoring occasions and the like.

In contrast, as shown in fig. 4B, the high-definition low-illumination fog-penetrating camera can perform hanger image imaging, hanger position detection and identification, and/or optical zoom locking on a hanger under the conditions of haze, dust, rainwater, and/or the like, so as to realize automatic tracking of the camera locking hanger.
Fig. 5 schematically illustrates an example of a safety precaution area according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to fig. 1, 2 and 5, a safety precaution area 520 may be set in a working area of a machine, such as a shore bridge crane 510 of a port crane, and if a person or an object intrudes into the safety precaution area, an image/video information of the safety precaution area may be captured in time by using a camera (e.g., the camera 120 or 220 shown in fig. 1 or 2) of an automatic tracking system, and the automatic tracking system may detect the intrusion of the person or the object by processing the image/video information and then send an alarm to remind a driver of the shore bridge to stop working, so as to avoid a safety hazard, such as a personal injury accident. Although fig. 5 illustrates the quay crane 510, the present invention is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, an automatic tracking system may be used to alarm personnel intruding into the working area of the quay crane or other crane, or perform collision avoidance and distance measurement of industrial automation equipment, and/or perform automatic object movement tracking and behavior recognition for special monitoring occasions.
Fig. 6 shows an example of lamp compensation according to an embodiment of the present invention. For example, as shown in fig. 6, in the light compensation area 602, a laser array LED compensation lamp may be used for light compensation during the operation of the shore bridge, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the light compensation may be performed for the operation of the field bridge or other industrial automation equipment or special monitoring occasions. In another embodiment, the light compensation may be performed at other locations or automatically adjusted using, for example, a laser matrix or using other light compensation devices.
FIG. 7 schematically illustrates a schematic diagram of an automatic tracking system in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. In one embodiment, the auto-tracking system 700 may include the camera 120, the PLC 140, and/or the video server or processor 150 as shown in fig. 1.
As shown in fig. 7, in one embodiment, the camera 120 may include a ranging module 704 for detecting one or more spreader positions 702. For example, the ranging module 704 may include a photoelectric sensor such as a TOF laser 3-dimensional sensor that may receive light back from a spreader by continuously sending light pulses to the spreader using TOF (time of flight) principles and/or using 2-dimensional optical ranging. The distance of the lifting appliance is obtained by detecting the flight (round trip) time of the light pulse, and then 2-dimensional outline, depth data, 3-dimensional point cloud data and the like of the lifting appliance are obtained. The distance measuring module 704 may interact optimized and stabilized data with the first operation module 708 performing operation using a preset database, and then provide operation results (e.g., data such as the zoom amount of the optical zoom movement) to the comparison voter 718 to perform data comparison with other sampling results from the second operation module 710 and/or the third operation module 714, and send the result to the control processor 724 to output results to control the auto-tracking camera optical movement to zoom and focus and/or image to control the height of the locking spreader so as to perform real-time actions. In one embodiment, the first computing module 708 and/or the camera 120 may further include a ROM (not shown) or other storage medium to pre-store the database.
As shown in fig. 7, the camera may further include a CCD imaging module 706 such as a Charge-coupled Device (CCD) sensor. The CCD imaging sensor can identify and compare specific edge patterns of a preset lifting appliance after startup initialization, analyze and lock the lifting appliance for imaging picture videos, and identify, analyze and calculate the pixel point proportion of each frame of image and the previous frame of image imaging of the lifting appliance when the lifting appliance moves. In one embodiment, the second operation module 710 may perform a depth camera self-learning motion detection image processing analysis on the CCD imaging module 706 and/or perform NCAST image differencing and clustering operations. After the proportion of the image of each frame of the image hanger is ensured to be more than 80%, the second operation module 710 transfers the operation result (for example, the data such as the zoom number of the optical zoom movement) to the comparison voter 718 for comparison and voting with other sampling signals. The comparison voter 718 drives the optical zoom camera of the camera 120 to zoom through the comparison result, so as to ensure that the camera 120 tracks the movement of the lifting appliance in real time to zoom in and out.
In yet another embodiment, the PLC 140 may perform an analog algorithm process to convert an analog current signal (e.g., 4-20mA, although the invention is not limited thereto) based on the height of the spreader and provide it to the current signal acquisition/conversion processor 716. The processor 716 can include a current to voltage converter 712 to convert the current signal from the PLC 140 to a voltage signal. After the stable data after the voltage signal optimization is compared with the pre-stored database through the third operation module 714, the operation result is given to the comparison voter 718 to be compared with other sampling signals for voting. For example, the operation result of the third operation module 714 may include data such as the zoom number of the optical zoom movement. The comparison voter 718 uses the comparison result to drive the camera to perform optical zoom shooting to zoom, so as to ensure that the camera tracks the movement of the lifting appliance in real time to zoom in and out. In one embodiment, the third operation module 708 and/or the processor 716 may further include a ROM or other storage medium to pre-store the database.
In one embodiment, the comparison voter 718 may receive the operation result from the first operation module 708, the second operation module 710, and/or the third operation module 714. If the comparison voter 718 detects that the data from the third operation module 714 is the same as other sampling data, the control processor 724 may perform control processing and video analysis to drive the optical zoom movement of the camera to perform corresponding zoom, focusing and/or imaging, thereby achieving automatic tracking of the movement of locking the lifting appliance by the camera. In one embodiment, the control processor 724 may include a module 720 for control processing/video analysis based on the comparison results from the comparison voter and/or a module 722 for controlling zoom/focus/imaging of the camera optics.
In one embodiment, the control Processor 724 may utilize a high speed Digital Signal Processor (DSP) so that it may be independently monitored and operated without establishing data communication with the PLC 140 (e.g., the PLC 140 outputting an analog current Signal). The control Processor 724 may perform an operation process through a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) chip and/or an Image Signal Processor (ISP)/DSP embedded module to penetrate haze, dust, rain, etc., so as to restore a real-time and clear monitoring picture.
As shown in fig. 7, the automatic tracking system 700 includes one or more discrete modules and/or devices, but in some embodiments, the one or more discrete modules may be integrated into one module and/or processor. In another embodiment, at least a portion of the auto-tracking system 700 may be implemented by software, hardware, firmware, or various combinations thereof. In one embodiment, one or more of the modules 704 and 710 may be integrated into one module. In another embodiment, one or more of the modules of the current signal collection/scaling processor 716, the comparison voter 718, and/or the control processor 724 may be integrated, for example, in the video server 150 shown in fig. 1.
Although not shown in fig. 7, in one embodiment, the automatic tracking system 700 may further include a light compensation control module for providing light compensation or turning off light compensation in the event of haze, dust, rain, snow, or other conditions requiring light compensation. In one embodiment, the light compensation control module may be integrated in the video server 150 shown in fig. 1, but the invention is not limited thereto.
Although not shown in fig. 7, in one embodiment, the automated control system 700 may comprise a variety of architectures of integrated circuit chips and/or packages and/or a variety of computing and/or electronic devices, and the like. For example, the automated control system 700 may include one or more processing units (or processors) and one or more memory units (or memories) coupled to the one or more processing units. In one embodiment, the one or more memory units may include various memory devices such as random access memory, dynamic random access memory, or static random access memory. In one embodiment, the one or more storage units may be used to store one or more instructions (e.g., machine-readable instructions and/or computer programs) that may be read and/or executed by the one or more processing units, and/or data or information from the control unit. The one or more instructions may also be stored on a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium. In response to being executed, the one or more instructions cause the one or more processing units to implement an auto-tracking system as described above with reference to fig. 1-7 and/or to perform one or more operations as described with reference to fig. 1-7 and fig. 8 below.
FIG. 8 shows a flow diagram of a method according to one embodiment of the invention. In one embodiment the method may be used for automatic tracking of a crane spreader, but in other embodiments the method may be applied to automatic tracking of other similar machines, automated machines or other applications, etc. as described above.
As shown in fig. 8, on the camera side, the camera may receive an instruction from a video server to initiate image sampling/analysis/comparison, etc., at block 802. At block 804, optical ranging may be performed using TOF techniques. For example, a 2D profile, depth data, and 3D point cloud data of a spreader are acquired by continuously transmitting light pulses to the spreader, receiving light returned from the spreader by a photoelectric sensor, and obtaining a spreader distance by detecting a flight (round trip) time of the light pulses. In one embodiment, the obtained data may also be optimized to obtain stable data. Or may be optimized at block 806.
In one embodiment, optical ranging may be performed using TOF principles. For example, at block 806, the ranging data obtained at block 804 may be computed using a predetermined scaling database to obtain a computation result. For example, a preset scaling database in the ROM may be called up for scaling. In one embodiment, the operation result may include a zoom number of the optical zoom movement obtained through conversion, and the like. Flow then passes to block 822 to be voted for comparison with other sample results.
On the other hand, NCAST image difference and clustering operation can be performed by the depth camera self-learning motion detection image processing technique. For example, at block 808, CCD imaging may be performed after power-on initialization. At block 810, motion detection pixel analysis/image differentiation and clustering operations are performed to identify and compare predetermined edge patterns of the spreader and/or to analyze and lock the spreader for the imaged video. In one embodiment, the pixel point proportion of each frame of image and the last frame of image of the sling can be identified, analyzed and calculated when the sling moves, so as to ensure that the imaging proportion of the sling of each frame of image is more than 80 percent, for example. The analysis operation result may include the zoom number of the optical zoom movement obtained through conversion, and the like. Flow then proceeds to 822 to vote the result of the analysis operation against the other sampled signals.
On the video server side, when the system is powered on or the crane lifting appliance moves, the PLC can send an instruction to the video server to switch the monitoring picture. At block 812, the video server may receive instructions from the PLC to immediately switch the monitor view to the real-time view of the camera auto-tracking spreader. At block 814, the video server may instruct the camera to perform image sampling/analysis/comparison. At block 816, an analog current signal may be received. As mentioned above, in one embodiment, the analog current signal may be scaled by the PLC based on the height of the spreader. At block 818, the collected current signal is subjected to a current-to-voltage conversion process to obtain a voltage signal. In one embodiment, this voltage signal may also be optimized to obtain stable voltage data. At block 820, the voltage data is compared with a pre-stored database to obtain a result. The operation result may include the number of times of zooming of the camera optical lens, and the like.
Flow then proceeds to block 822 to make a comparison vote on the results of the operations obtained at blocks 806, 810, and 818, respectively. For example, if the result of the operation obtained at block 818 is the same as the other sampled signals obtained at blocks 806 or 810, flow proceeds to block 824. Otherwise, flow returns to blocks 806, 810, and 818 to continue sampling.
At block 824, the video server processes and analyzes the spreader position data, video frames, and the like, and video processes and analyses such as frame optimization, based on the received voting results. The video server may also drive the camera optical zoom/focus/image according to the obtained camera optical lens zoom data at block 826, thereby ensuring that the camera tracks the spreader movement in real time to zoom in and out to lock the spreader.
Although not shown in fig. 8, in one embodiment, the method may further include driving the light compensation device to perform light compensation according to the real-time position of the spreader by the video server when the light compensation is required. In addition, the method can also comprise the steps that the video server analyzes whether personnel break into the monitored area and gives an alarm to perform safety early warning, and/or controls the camera through the weather environment condition during operation, and the like, so that the imaging effect is optimized. In addition, the method may further include a/D, D/a conversion of the video signals, the data collected by each sensor, analysis of the data, comparison of the data, control and adjustment thereof, etc., as described above with reference to fig. 1-7.
In the embodiments shown in fig. 1-8, the automatic tracking system and method according to the present invention can utilize NCAST image differencing and clustering operations and TOF laser ranging dual system detection. In one embodiment, 1920 x 1080P high definition low light imaging may be used, and/or the lamp compensation may be automatically adjusted using a laser matrix. In another embodiment, a 128-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) data transfer Encryption algorithm may be utilized. The automatic tracking system and the method have strong expansibility, and can select regional early warning, weather display and hanger speed display. The automatic tracking system can also be designed with a watchdog circuit to achieve no human intervention. The automatic tracking system and the method do not need to be in data communication with a machine PLC, can achieve fog penetration, strong light reflection inhibition, and real-time tracking of 42-time optical zooming and the like. The distance measured by the automatic tracking system and the method can be accurate to 1mm, and mechanical and optical anti-shake can be realized. The automatic tracking system of the invention conforms to the conventional use habit, is plug and play without any arrangement, and is simple and convenient in bracket installation. The automatic tracking system and the method can utilize the monitor to display data and real-time pictures, are full-automatic and intelligent, do not need manual operation, do not cause interference to other equipment, and have strong expansibility of various industrial serial ports. According to one embodiment of the invention, the automatic tracking system and the automatic tracking method can be suitable for various occasions with the working environment temperature between-40 ℃ and +60 ℃, and can customize specific functions according to the requirements of customers.
