Detailed Description
The scheme provided by the specification is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
In the existing process of detecting the in-place of an active target, the detection is usually realized by deploying sensors in the target area. The sensor is, for example, an infrared sensor, a laser sensor, or an image sensor, and it is directly determined whether or not a moving object enters the target area by using the sensor.
However, since the sensor can only detect the target area after being deployed, once the target area changes, the sensor can only be continuously re-deployed in the changed target area, and this operation of detecting the moving target in place is complicated.
As can be seen from the analysis of the above process of detecting the moving target in place, the moving target entering the target area is directly determined only by the change of the collected signals of some of the sensors in the target area (for example, the infrared ray is blocked, the laser is blocked, and the moving target enters the image). If the target area changes, for example, a sensor is originally arranged in the target area a, and now to increase the detection of whether a moving target enters the target area B, the sensor needs to be added in the target area B, which is a complicated operation. That is, when the target area changes, it may be considered to determine whether the position information of the moving target falls within the range of the target area, so that an in-place response may be triggered.
Further, since the common defects of the above-described sensors are mainly that the detection distance is short and is easily affected by the environment (such as light, temperature, and obstacles), a sensing manner that is long in detection distance and is not easily affected by the environment, such as a sensing manner using a millimeter wave radar, can be considered. Based on this, the embodiments of the present specification are a system that detects a moving target using a millimeter wave radar and uses indirect detection that determines whether or not position information of the moving target falls within a range of a target area (i.e., a system that directly detects the moving target using an existing sensor).
Specific implementations of the concepts provided in the present specification are described below.
FIG. 1 shows a flow diagram of a method of in-place detection according to one embodiment. It is understood that the method may be performed by any device, apparatus, platform, apparatus point cloud having computing and processing capabilities. Referring to fig. 1, the method includes:
step 101: and acquiring range information of the target area.
In the present embodiment, the target area is obtained by dividing the detection area.
The detection area and the target area are both two-dimensional areas in the embodiment of the present specification, for example, the detection area may be a regular planar graph or an irregular planar graph; similarly, the target area may be a regular planar figure or an irregular planar figure. The range information of the target area, i.e., the contour shape for characterizing the target area, may be, for example, a set of coordinate information of a plurality of coordinate points, or a set of coordinate information and size information of one coordinate point.
Taking the detection region and the target region as rectangular regions for example, the range information of the detection region and the target region may include a vertex coordinate of the detection region, a length and a width of the detection region, for example, the vertex coordinate of the lower left corner of the detection region is (0, 0), the length is 4 (dimensionless unit), and the width is 2 (dimensionless unit), and if a target region is to be determined in the detection region, only one vertex coordinate, the length and the width of the target region need to be obtained.
Step 102: and acquiring point cloud data corresponding to the plurality of moving points, which is obtained by detecting the detection area by the millimeter wave radar.
In the present embodiment, the point cloud data includes the number of moving points and attribute information of each moving point.
The millimeter wave Radar (Radar) is a Radar which operates in a millimeter wave band for detection, generally, the millimeter wave refers to an electromagnetic wave with a length of 1-10 mm, and the corresponding frequency range is 30-300 GHz. The millimeter wave radar can realize accurate measurement of information such as target position, speed and the like, and has the characteristics of all-time, all-weather, low cost, low power consumption and long service life. The millimeter wave radar can distinguish and identify very small targets and can identify a plurality of targets simultaneously.
The millimeter wave radar can emit electromagnetic waves in a millimeter wave frequency range within a preset range, then the millimeter wave radar can collect echo signals, analog-to-Digital conversion is carried out on the collected echo signals, and then DSP (Digital Signal Processing) is carried out on the converted signals to obtain point cloud data.
Step 103: and determining at least one moving target included in the detection area according to the number of the moving points detected by the millimeter wave radar in the detection area and the attribute information of each moving point.
In the present embodiment, each moving object is composed of a plurality of moving points.
In some implementations, at least one activity target included within the detection region may be determined by the flowchart shown in fig. 2. Specifically, the method comprises the following steps:
the attribute information comprises coordinates, speed and signal-to-noise ratio;
step 201: and clustering the plurality of moving points in the detection area according to the coordinate, the speed and the signal-to-noise ratio of each moving point to obtain at least one initial point cloud cluster.
In this step, clustering processing is performed by using the DBSCAN algorithm as an example, and it should be understood that clustering processing performed by using the embodiments of the present specification is not limited to the DBSCAN algorithm.
The clustering process of the DBSCAN algorithm comprises the following steps:
starting from a motion point which is not divided into the initial cloud cluster and is not visited, calculating a neighborhood of which the difference between the coordinate and the speed of the motion point is within a certain threshold, wherein the threshold of the difference between the coordinate and the speed is set to be 0.15m in the embodiment, and the threshold of the difference between the speed is set to be 1m/s, namely, other motion points which are not more than 0.15m away from the plane of the point and the absolute value of the difference between the speeds is not more than 1m/s are all within the neighborhood of the point.
If the number of the motion points falling into the neighborhood range exceeds a threshold (for example, 10, the threshold can be set according to different scenes), the motion point is marked as a first point in a new point cloud cluster, otherwise, the motion point is marked as a noise point, and the state of the marked motion point is changed to be visited.
And processing the first point in the new point cloud cluster, marking all the moving points in the neighborhood of the first point as the moving points in the new point cloud cluster, and processing all the moving points in the new point cloud cluster until no new moving point is added into the new point cloud cluster. After the current cloud cluster is processed, a new point which is not visited is extracted and processed, so that the next cloud cluster or noise is discovered, the process is repeated until all the points are marked as visited, and after the processing is completed, each moving point is marked as belonging to one cloud cluster or noise point.
And calculating the sum of signal-to-noise ratios of the points of each point cloud cluster, and marking the point cloud cluster with the sum of the signal-to-noise ratios larger than a threshold (for example, 100dB, the threshold of the sum of the signal-to-noise ratios can be according to different scenes) as an initial point cloud cluster, or marking the point cloud cluster as a noise point cloud cluster.
Step 202: and for each initial point cloud cluster, if the number of the moving points included in the initial point cloud cluster is not less than a preset first number threshold value, and the distance between any two moving points included in the initial point cloud cluster is less than a preset first distance threshold value, determining the initial point cloud cluster as an effective point cloud cluster.
The determined initial cloud may still have interference factors, such as wind blowing curtains in the detection area, and may be determined as the initial cloud. However, the number of the moving points in the point cloud cluster corresponding to the moving object and the distance between any two moving points should have a certain limit (that is, the number of the moving points included in the initial point cloud cluster is not less than the preset first number threshold, and the distance between any two moving points included in the initial point cloud cluster is less than the preset first distance threshold), so that it is possible to further determine that the moving object is the moving object.
It should be noted that, with reference to fig. 4, the distance between any two motion points included in the initial cloud cluster can be calculated by the following formula:
Figure BDA0002927149280000091
wherein D ispFor characterizing the distance between any two moving points,/p1For characterizing the distance, l, of one of the moving points to the millimeter-wave radarp2For characterising the distance, theta, of another moving point to the millimeter-wave radarp1For characterising one of the moving points to the azimuth, theta, of a millimeter-wave radarp2For characterizing the azimuth angle of another moving point to the millimeter wave radar.
Step 203: and determining the effective point cloud cluster meeting the activity target determination rule as an activity target.
In this embodiment, the activity targeting rule includes at least one of:
1) the duration of the effective point cloud cluster is not less than a preset first duration (for example, 5 s);
2) the number of the motion points included in the effective point cloud cluster is not less than a preset second number threshold (for example, 20);
3) the distance between the effective point cloud cluster and the effective point cloud cluster closest to the effective point cloud cluster is not less than a preset second distance threshold (for example, 0.1 m).
If the effective point cloud cluster can meet any one of the three active target determination rules, the probability that the effective point cloud cluster is an active target is higher; further, if the more the number of the effective point cloud cluster can satisfy the three active target determination rules, the greater the probability that the effective point cloud cluster is an active target is.
Step 104: for each activity goal, performing: determining the position information of the moving target according to the attribute information of the moving point corresponding to the moving target; and judging whether the moving target is positioned in the target area or not according to the range information of the target area and the position information of the moving target.
In this embodiment, with reference to fig. 3 and 4, the point cloud data includes a distance from each moving point to the millimeter wave radar and an azimuth angle from each moving point to the millimeter wave radar;
before the determining the position information of the moving target, further comprising: acquiring position information of the millimeter wave radar;
the determining the position information of the moving target comprises:
step 301: and calculating the average distance from the movable target to the millimeter wave radar according to the distance from each moving point in the movable target to the millimeter wave radar.
In this step, the average distance from the moving target to the millimeter wave radar is calculated by the following formula:

wherein laFor characterizing the average distance of a moving target to the millimeter wave radar.

wherein, thetaaFor characterizing the mean azimuth angle of a moving target to the millimeter wave radar.
Step 303: determining the position information of the moving target according to the position information of the millimeter wave radar and the average distance and the mean square angle obtained by calculation
In this step, the position information of the moving object is calculated by the following formula group:

wherein, X0Abscissa, Y, for characterizing moving objects0Ordinate, X, for characterizing moving objectsRFor characterizing the transverse-axis coordinate, Y, of a millimeter-wave radarRThe method is used for representing the vertical axis coordinate of the millimeter wave radar.
In the present specification, examples are given by using (X)0,Y0) The position information of the movable target is characterized, and the accuracy of the characterization mode is high. Of course, the moving target may also be characterized by coordinates or other position information of other moving points in the moving target, which is not limited herein.
In this embodiment, when the target area is a rectangular area, the following formula group may be used to determine that the active target is located in the target area:
Figure BDA0002927149280000112
wherein, XaA horizontal axis coordinate, Y, for characterizing the lower left corner vertex of a target regionaThe vertical axis coordinate of the vertex of the lower left corner of the target area is used for representing, L is used for representing the length of the target area, and W is used for representing the width of the target area.
If the formula set is not satisfied, the active target is not located within the target area.
In the embodiment of the present specification, the scheme for detecting whether a moving target enters a certain target area only needs to use one millimeter wave radar, and even if the target area changes, the scheme can continue to detect the moving target in place by changing the range information of the target area without continuously relocating a sensor in the changed target area, so that the operation complexity of detecting the moving target in place can be reduced.
In some embodiments, the determining whether the moving target is located in the target area according to the range information of the target area and the position information of the moving target in step 104 includes:
and judging whether the movable target is positioned in the target area or not according to the range information of the target area and the position information of the movable target in each frame.
That is to say, for each frame of point cloud data detected by the millimeter wave radar, if there is position information of a moving target in a target area in the point cloud data of one frame, an in-place response is triggered, otherwise, no trigger is triggered. Of course, for the point cloud data of a preset number of frames detected by the millimeter wave radar, if the position information of the moving target is located in the target area in each frame of point cloud data of multiple frames exceeding the preset threshold, the in-place response is triggered, otherwise, the in-place response is not triggered.
The above embodiments describe the case when an active object enters a target area. However, in practical applications, if at least two target areas exist in the detection area, there may be a case where the active object repeatedly enters two of the target areas within a short time, and thus the in-place responses (e.g., alarm information) of the two target areas are triggered more frequently, which may affect the user experience.
The reason for this is that the above embodiment processes the point cloud data of each frame, and if there is position information of a moving target located in a target area in the point cloud data of one frame, an in-place response is triggered, that is, the sensitivity of this triggering method is high. Considering that a moving object may enter a target area by mistake, the sensitivity of the triggering method may be reduced, for example, noise reduction processing may be performed on a moving point generated within a preset time period.
With reference to fig. 5, after determining that an active target in at least one frame is located in one of the target areas in step 104, the method further includes:
step 501: and within a preset second time length, judging whether the active target in at least one frame is located in another target area, if so, executing the step 502, and if not, ending the current process.
In this step, for example, the preset second duration is 1s, the millimeter wave radar can detect 20 frames of point cloud data within 1s, and if there is at least one frame of point cloud data in which a moving object is located in the first target area, and there is also at least one frame of point cloud data in which a moving object is located in the second target area, step 502 is executed. For example, if the moving target in the 8 frames of point cloud data is located in the first target area, and the moving target in the 12 frames of point cloud data is located in the second target area, within 1s, the first target area and the second target area both detect that the moving target enters, that is, within 1s, in-place responses corresponding to the first target area and the second target area are both triggered for several times, which may affect the use experience of the user. Thus, the problem of such frequent triggering can be solved by performing step 502.
Step 502: and performing noise reduction processing on the motion points corresponding to the moving target in all the frames in the second duration.
In this step, the noise reduction processing may include at least one of the following two ways.
In a first mode
Step A1: determining a boundary band region of the two target regions.
Wherein the boundary band region of the target region is formed by moving a boundary line of the target region to the inside of the target region by a preset distance. Referring to fig. 6, for example, the two target areas are the first target area and the second target area respectively, and the boundary zone area is two ring-shaped shaded areas in fig. 6.
Step A2: removing the motion points located on the boundary band region in all frames within the second duration.
In this embodiment, by defining the boundary band region, the motion points located in the adjacent boundary region portions of the first target region and the second target region are subjected to the blurring weakening process, so that the attribute information of the motion points other than the motion points located in the boundary band region can be focused, and then preparation is made for determining the target region where the active target is located (specifically, the first target region or the second target region).
Mode two
Step B1: and calculating the average Doppler value of the moving points corresponding to the moving target in all the frames in the second time length.
Wherein the point cloud data comprises a Doppler value for each motion point; wherein the Doppler value of each moving point is used for representing the change rate of the relative distance from the moving point to the millimeter wave radar. That is to say, the doppler value of the moving point describes the motion attribute of the moving point, and the filtering of the doppler value can be beneficial to accurately determining the motion characteristic of the moving target. For example, if the doppler value of a moving point located within a first target region is generally higher than the doppler value of a moving point located within a second target region, it may be demonstrated that the moving target is more likely to be located in the first target region.
Step B2: and removing the moving points with Doppler values lower than the average Doppler value.
In this embodiment, since the doppler value of the moving point describes the motion attribute of the moving point, the moving characteristic of the moving target can be determined accurately by screening the doppler values. For further processing of noise moving points, moving points with doppler values higher than the average doppler value may be focused, i.e. moving points with doppler values lower than the average doppler value are removed.
Step 503: new location information for the active object is determined.
This step may be specifically realized as follows.
Step C1: and clustering the motion points corresponding to the moving target after the noise reduction treatment again to obtain at least two new point cloud clusters.
In this step, for example, the DBSCAN algorithm may be continuously used for clustering, which is described in detail above and will not be described herein again. It should be noted that the parameters (e.g., the threshold of the difference between the coordinates, the threshold of the difference between the speeds, the threshold of the signal-to-noise ratio, and the threshold of the number) of the clustering algorithm in this step are all more strict than those in the above first clustering, otherwise, the moving points corresponding to the moving target cannot be clustered into at least two new cloud clusters.
Step C2: and determining new position information of the moving target according to the attribute information of the moving points in the new point cloud cluster with the largest number of the moving points.
In this step, the implementation of determining the new location information of the active target is consistent with the above. For example, firstly, determining an initial point cloud cluster by using the coordinate, the speed and the signal-to-noise ratio of each moving point, then determining an effective point cloud cluster, and then determining a new moving target; next, the new moving target position information is determined by using the average distance from the new moving target to the millimeter wave radar, the average azimuth angle, and the position information of the millimeter wave radar, that is, the new position information of the moving target in step C2 is obtained.
Step 504: and determining a target area where the movable target is located according to the determined new position information.
In this embodiment, the new position information of the moving target determined in the above steps can better represent the real position information of the moving target, and the problem that the moving target frequently triggers in-place response can be effectively solved by the determined new position information, that is, the triggering result is only that the moving target is located in the first target area or the second target area.
In conclusion, the function of virtualizing the sub-sensors into a plurality of sub-sensors can be realized by using a single millimeter wave radar, when the target area changes, the virtualized sub-sensors can still accurately trigger in-place response, and the operation complexity of in-place detection on the moving target is reduced. Meanwhile, the trigger states of the virtual sub-sensors can be transmitted to an application terminal in real time for the terminal application to use and display.
