Detailed Description
In order to facilitate understanding of those skilled in the art, the present invention will be further described with reference to the following examples and drawings, which are not intended to limit the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1, the method for reducing the number of inspection viewpoints of a multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle comprises the following steps:
s1: designing two viewpoint reduction methods according to the actual inspection process of the multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle and calculating reducible ranges of the two methods;
two viewpoint reduction modes exist in the process of inspecting the electric power tower by the multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle;
s11, when the multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle shoots a certain component to be tested, judging whether other components to be tested fall in the shooting range;
s12 gives the best shooting range of the unmanned aerial vehicle according to the size, the focal length and the shooting distance of the sensor of the airborne camera, and then judges which components to be detected on the electric power tower are in the shooting range. Therefore, the reducible photographing ranges of the two different viewpoint reduction methods are also different.
Firstly, establishing a space relative coordinate system by taking the center of a tower footing of an electric tower as an origin of coordinates, and assuming that the space coordinate of a component A to be tested is (0, y)A,zA) Width of component is WAHeight of HA
The first method is as follows: the focal length of the airborne camera is a zoom lens;
when shooting the components and parts A that await measuring, many rotor unmanned aerial vehicle's machine carries the camera and is zoom, and the process of shooing is in order to guarantee that the clear fixed shooting distance of image, and the focus is changed to the priority and is adjusted. Therefore, the shooting distance is not less than the initial minimum safe distance LsUnder the conditions of (a) can obtain:
F1=min{Lsw/W1,Lsh/H1}
in the formula, F is the focal length of the airborne camera, w and h are the sizes of the sensors respectively, W, H are the sizes of the components to be measured respectively, L is the shooting distance, F1The current shooting focal length of the airborne camera is obtained;
suppose that the variable range of the onboard camera focal length is (F)min,Fmax) If F is1<FminAt this moment, the airborne camera can not shoot the components and parts to be measured completely, and the maximum range that the multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle can shoot needs to be adjusted as follows:
Figure BDA0002605222000000031
if F1∈(Fmin,Fmax) Then many rotor unmanned aerial vehicle's the scope of can shooing do:
Figure BDA0002605222000000032
if F1>FmaxThe minimum scope that many rotor unmanned aerial vehicle can shoot this moment does:
Figure BDA0002605222000000033
the focal length of the airborne camera is a fixed-focus lens;
assuming that the focal length of the onboard camera is a fixed value FfixThen, the shooting distance between many rotor unmanned aerial vehicle and the components and parts that await measuring this moment is:
L1=max{FfixWA/w,FfixHA/h}
if L is1<LsAt this moment, the constraint condition that the shooting distance should not be less than the initial minimum safe distance is not satisfied by the multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle, so the actual shooting distance needs to be increased, and the new shooting range is obtained:
Figure BDA0002605222000000034
if L is1≥LsThen many rotor unmanned aerial vehicle's shooting scope does:
Figure BDA0002605222000000041
the second method comprises the following steps: the focal length of the airborne camera is a zoom lens;
many rotor unmanned aerial vehicle need keep certain shooting distance when patrolling and examining the electric power shaft tower, still need can clearly shoot all components and parts that await measuring simultaneously, consequently preferentially use the big focus to patrol and examine the shooting. The shooting range of the multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle at the maximum focal length is calculated in combination with the sensor size of the onboard camera:
Figure BDA0002605222000000042
the focal length of the airborne camera is a fixed-focus lens;
in order to shoot the components and parts that await measuring as far as clearly as possible, regard as the shooting distance with initial minimum safe distance, many rotor unmanned aerial vehicle's shooting distance this moment is:
Figure BDA0002605222000000043
the components and parts to be measured on the electric power tower can be divided into a shooting surface not considering and a shooting surface considering according to the type of the shooting surface. The shooting surface of the component to be tested is not considered, for example, when the insulator string is patrolled, the insulator string can be shot from any direction meeting the patrolling constraint condition, and all the components to be tested falling into the shooting range can be combined and shot for the components to be tested, so that the number of viewpoints is reduced.
S2: classifying the components to be detected, and establishing a rule for performing viewpoint reduction on the components to be detected without a fixed shooting plane;
the components to be measured on the electric tower can be divided into components to be measured without a fixed shooting plane and components to be measured with a fixed shooting plane according to the distribution characteristics of the components. Some components to be tested do not have fixed shooting planes, and the multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle can shoot the components from any angle of the electric power tower on the premise of meeting the self safety, such as an insulator string; while other components to be tested have fixed shooting planes, the components of the type need the multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle to fly to a specific viewpoint position to shoot the components so as to meet the inspection requirement;
viewpoint reduction rule without fixed shooting plane:
the first method is as follows: when the multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle patrols and examines the component A to be tested, the shooting area (W) is determined according to whether the focal length of the airborne camera is changed1,H1) Or (W)2,H2) As a viewpoint reducible range; when a plurality of components to be tested are located in the shooting range, the components are shot uniformly, and the conditions for judging whether other components to be tested fall in the shooting range are as follows:
Figure BDA0002605222000000044
in the formula, yi,ziThe space coordinate values of the components i are respectively expressed, i is A, B, CiAnd HiRespectively representing the width and the height of the component i; according to whether the focal length of the airborne camera is changed or not, the k value is 1 or 2; and calculating the viewpoint position according to the coordinate value of the component A to be measured and the size of the shooting range, wherein the other components to be measured falling into the shooting range do not perform viewpoint calculation any more.
The second method comprises the following steps: selecting a zone (W) according to whether the focal length of the onboard camera varies3,H3) Or (W)4,H4) As a view point reducible range, the conditions for determining whether other components to be tested fall within the shooting range are as follows:
Figure BDA0002605222000000051
in the formula, yi、zi、yjAnd zjRespectively representing coordinate values, W, of the components i, j to be testedi、Hi、WjAnd HjRespectively representing the width and the height of the component i, j to be tested after the hovering error is considered. Can reduce the shooting range to Wk、HkAnd k takes 3 or 4. And (4) calculating the viewpoint position by taking the coordinates and the size of the central point of the shooting range, and not calculating the viewpoint of other components to be measured in the shooting range.
S3: establishing a rule that a fixed shooting plane exists and the shooting plane carries out viewpoint reduction on the same plane;
the existence of the components to be tested of the shooting plane means that the components need to be shot from a certain angle during inspection, and the content required by inspection can be shot, such as a wire end or a cross arm end hanging point of an insulator string. According to the position of the shooting plane in space, the shooting plane can be divided into the same plane and the different plane. Element device to be testedThe shooting plane of the piece and the orientation of the electric power tower have a certain relation with the trend of the power transmission line, for example, the cross arm ends of the insulator strings are distributed on two sides of the electric power tower and are in the same plane with the electric power tower, and the shooting plane and the orientation of the electric power tower are perpendicular to the direction of the power transmission line. And calculating a plane equation of the component to be measured by using the principle that one plane can be determined through three points which are not on the same plane in space. Suppose the coordinate h (x) of the cross arm end hanging point on the same insulator chainh,yh,zh) Wire end hanging point coordinate d (x)d,yd,zd) And the wire end hanging point coordinate d of the adjacent tower connected with the wire end hanging point coordinate d1(xd1,yd1,zd1) And calculating a plane equation of the hanging point at the end of the cross arm as follows:
A(x-xd)+B(y-yd)+C(z-zd)=0
in the equation, the value of A, B, C is determined by the selected coordinate point, where:
A=(zd1-zh)yd+(zd-zd1)yh+(zh-zd)yd1
B=(zh-zd1)xd+(zd1-zd)xh+(zd-zh)xd1
C=(yd1-yh)xd+(yd-yd1)xh+(yh-yd)xd1
when the shooting planes of different components to be tested are not on the same plane in space, the components to be tested cannot be shot uniformly, so that the information of the shooting planes of the components to be tested needs to be acquired before shooting for judgment. Whether the space coordinate values of other components to be tested are in the same plane with the components to be tested can be judged by substituting the space coordinate values of the other components to be tested into the plane equation.
There is a viewpoint reduction rule that the shooting plane is fixed and the shooting plane is in the same plane:
the first method is as follows: when a plurality of components with fixed shooting surfaces are arranged and the shooting surfaces are on the same plane, one of the components can be used as shootingThe shooting center gives a shooting range, and then judges whether other components with the same shooting surface are in the shooting range. If the component B to be tested is shot, the spatial coordinate value is (0, y)B,zB) Width and height are given by WBAnd HBAnd judging whether other components to be tested fall in the shooting range or not according to the following conditions:
Figure BDA0002605222000000061
in the formula, yi,ziThe space coordinate values of the components i are respectively expressed, i is A, B, CiAnd HiRespectively representing the width and height of component i. The value of k takes 1 or 2 depending on whether the focal length of the onboard camera changes. And calculating the viewpoint position according to the coordinate value of the component B to be measured and the size of the shooting range, wherein the other components to be measured falling into the shooting range do not perform viewpoint calculation any more.
The second method comprises the following steps: according to whether the focal length of the airborne camera changes or not, a shooting range is given, the processing method and the mode I for combining and shooting a plurality of components with shooting surfaces in the same plane are the same, and the conditions for judging whether other components to be detected fall in the shooting range are as follows:
Figure BDA0002605222000000062
in the formula, yi、zi、yjAnd zjRespectively representing coordinate values, W, of the components i, j to be testedi、Hi、WjAnd HjRespectively representing the width and the height of the component i, j to be tested after the hovering error is considered. Can reduce the shooting range to Wk、HkAnd k takes 3 or 4. And (4) calculating the viewpoint position by taking the coordinates and the sizes of the central points of the shooting range, and not calculating the viewpoints of other components to be detected within the shooting range.
Still have the shooting plane of a plurality of components and parts that await measuring not in the condition in space coplanar when patrolling and examining electric power tower, for example the orientation of the wire end hanging point of two insulator chains of strain insulator tower with one side is two return in AC line is different, consequently if will shoot these two hanging points simultaneously and need adjust many rotor unmanned aerial vehicle's camera angle and shoot.
S4: establishing a rule that a fixed shooting plane exists and the shooting plane is not on the same plane for viewpoint reduction;
there is a viewpoint reduction rule that a shooting plane is fixed and the shooting plane is not in the same plane:
the first method is as follows: the method comprises the following steps of polling a certain component C to be detected with a fixed shooting plane, and judging whether other components to be detected fall in the shooting range as follows:
Figure BDA0002605222000000071
in the formula, yi,ziThe space coordinate values of the components i are respectively expressed, i is A, B, CiAnd HiRespectively representing the width and height of component i. The value of k takes 1 or 2 depending on whether the focal length of the onboard camera changes.
After the above formula is satisfied, substituting the coordinates of the other components to be tested into the plane equation of the determined components to judge whether any two components to be tested are in the same plane, and if so, processing according to a viewpoint reduction rule that a fixed shooting plane exists and the shooting plane is in the same plane; if the positions of the viewpoints of the multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle are not in the same plane, the positions of the viewpoints of the multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle need to be adjusted; taking any two components to be tested considering the shooting plane in space as an example, the spatial coordinate of the component C is (x)C,yC,zC) Width of WCHeight of HC(ii) a The space coordinate of the component D is (x)D,yD,zD) Width of WDHeight of HD(ii) a According to the method for determining the plane equation, respective plane equations are determined, and then normal equations of the two planes passing through respective components to be tested are calculated through the plane equations:
Figure BDA0002605222000000072
Figure BDA0002605222000000073
when the included angle of the shooting planes of the two components to be tested in the space is less than 30 degrees, the two components cannot be shot clearly at the same time; calculating the included angle between planes by normal equation

Figure BDA0002605222000000075
Figure BDA0002605222000000076
The viewpoint that will many rotor unmanned aerial vehicle moves to the position that the contained angle between the normal that two components and parts place planes correspond is the same to guarantee the shooting distance between this viewpoint position and two components and parts more than or equal to initial minimum safe distance, the viewpoint position after the calculation removal is:

in the above formula, i represents C or D, i.e. all subscripts in the first formula are C, so i represents C, corresponding to tiAll subscripts in the list are C; similarly, all subscripts in the second formula are D, so i represents D.
The second method comprises the following steps: the conditions for judging whether other components to be detected fall in the shooting range are as follows according to whether the focal length of the airborne camera changes to give the shooting range:
