Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Fig. 1 is a schematic step diagram of an inspection method using an unmanned aerial vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the steps of the inspection method using the unmanned aerial vehicle may specifically include:
s11, determining a laser point cloud model based on laser point cloud data, wherein the laser point cloud data are inspection area data of an object to be detected;
the laser point cloud data can be obtained by three-dimensional reconstruction through a laser range finder or a visual device, and the patrol area data can comprise laser point cloud data of an object to be detected and laser point cloud data of the surrounding environment of the object to be detected.
The object to be measured can be electrical equipment, such as insulators, electrical towers, wires, foundations and base planes, grounding devices, insulators, cross arms and the like. Optionally, the lead may be specifically a pull wire, a drainage wire, a shield wire, a ground wire, or the like. At present, the object to be measured can also be other equipment that can adopt unmanned aerial vehicle to carry out data acquisition, perhaps state monitoring.
Because the data volume of the directly obtained laser point cloud data is huge, the laser point cloud data needs to be simplified through a random sampling method, and then a laser point cloud model is generated based on the simplified data, and the point laser point cloud model is used for providing space structure information around the object to be detected and obstacle data needed by routing inspection path planning.
The laser point cloud model may be a three-dimensional mesh model composed of triangular patches, and certainly, may also be composed of patches of other shapes, such as polygons, and the process of constructing the three-dimensional mesh model may be constructed by using an algorithm in the prior art, such as an algorithm for reconstructing a three-dimensional mesh entity model based on a BP neural network, which is not described herein again.
Specifically, the laser point cloud model may be integrally manufactured by using a high-level modeling Polygon (Polygon) modeling method, and developed under a Unity engine.
And S12, generating a routing inspection route for the unmanned aerial vehicle to inspect the object to be inspected based on the laser point cloud model.
And S13, utilizing the routing inspection route to realize the routing inspection of the object to be detected.
The routing inspection route is a route for the unmanned aerial vehicle to inspect the object to be detected. In the embodiment of the invention, a safer routing inspection route can be generated based on the laser point cloud data of the surrounding environment of the object to be detected in the laser point cloud data in the laser point cloud model, so that the object to be detected is routed by using the unmanned aerial vehicle based on the routing inspection route, and automatic routing inspection is realized. Therefore, in the embodiment of the invention, the laser point cloud model can be used for planning the patrol route for the unmanned aerial vehicle, manual mode patrol is not needed, the time consumed by manual operation and control of the unmanned aerial vehicle in the patrol process is reduced, and the patrol efficiency of the unmanned aerial vehicle on the object to be detected is improved.
Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a step of generating a routing inspection route disclosed in the embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 2, generating a routing inspection route for inspecting the object to be inspected by the unmanned aerial vehicle based on the laser point cloud model includes:
and S21, carrying out data processing on the laser point cloud data in the laser point cloud model to obtain target point cloud data, wherein the target point cloud data comprises ground points and non-ground points.

The point cloud denoising process can be realized by different point cloud denoising algorithms, and the different point cloud denoising algorithms have different types of parameters to be adjusted and different numbers of parameters to be adjusted. Therefore, in the embodiment of the invention, the point cloud denoising can be a point cloud denoising algorithm of parameters to be substituted, and when the parameters are substituted into the point cloud denoising algorithm, initial point cloud data after point cloud denoising can be obtained, namely the point cloud denoising function of the laser point cloud data can be realized.

Of course, in other alternative embodiments, other filtering manners may also be adopted as long as the initial point cloud data can be filtered to obtain the target point cloud data, which is not limited herein.
It can be understood that the denoising result of the single point cloud denoising algorithm on the laser point cloud data may be rough, in order to improve the denoising effect of the point cloud denoising, the parameters of the point cloud denoising algorithm need to be adjusted again according to the actual result of the target point cloud data, and the denoising quality of the point cloud denoising algorithm on the laser point cloud data can be further optimized by changing the parameters of the point cloud denoising algorithm.

It should be noted that the power cable needs extra avoidance due to the high voltage, so as to prevent safety accidents. The high-voltage power transmission cable generally comprises a plurality of strands of secondary conductors, so that when modeling a power cable region, the plurality of strands of conductors need to be similar to one strand of conductor, a cylindrical region is formed around the cylindrical region by taking a certain safety distance as a radius, and a region outside the cylindrical region is taken as a safety inspection region, so that the center point coordinates of an obstacle need to be obtained to avoid the obstacle.

In an embodiment, the clustering analysis may be an improved binary Kmeans algorithm, the algorithm divides k initial central points according to the non-ground partition regions, divides the non-ground partition regions into k clusters by using the k initial central points, recalculates respective central points according to the classified data, continues to divide the non-ground partition regions with the k initial central points as centers if the central points change, and then performs convergence if the central points do not change, thereby obtaining a connected clustering map.
And S33, carrying out suspension wire connection analysis based on the connected cluster map to obtain initial obstacle point cloud data.

Therefore, there is a safety in the periphery of electric power cable and patrols and examines the region, can generate unmanned aerial vehicle in this safety is patrolled and examined the route of patrolling and examining to the determinand to can realize patrolling and examining the safety of determinand under this route of patrolling and examining.

The use of a three-dimensional pan-tilt contributes to reducing the number of viewpoints. After the unmanned aerial vehicle flies to reach a certain inspection point position, the tripod head horizontally and vertically rotates to take a plurality of photos, the photos contain information of power equipment in a certain area around an object to be detected, although the staying time at a single viewpoint at each time is slightly longer than that before, the total viewpoint number is greatly reduced, and the flying path is shortened, so the inspection efficiency is effectively improved by the method.
