The concept of Lowest Point Representation (LPR) is introduced. The LPR is the average of the lowest elevation points and ensures that the plane fitting phase is not affected by measurement noise. The LPR is regarded as the lowest point of the whole point cloud P, and the points in the point cloud P with the height within the threshold value are regarded as seed points, and the seed points form a seed point set.
The distance of the orthogonal projection of the point in the point cloud to the plane is less than a threshold Th dist The point is considered to belong to the ground, otherwise it belongs to non-ground. We use a simple linear model for the planar model estimation and then use three singular vectors to describe the spread of the point set in three main directions. Since it is a plane model, a normal vector perpendicular to the plane represents a direction having the smallest variance, and can be found by calculating a singular vector having the smallest singular value. After selecting the seed point set and evaluating the initial plane model, we calculate the distance of the orthogonal projection of each point in the point cloud to the plane, and compare this distance with a set threshold Th dist And comparing, when the height difference is smaller than the threshold value, the point is considered to belong to the ground, and when the height difference is larger than the threshold value, the point is a non-ground point.

The most common meshing method is uniform meshing, where all points are first traversed to obtain x max ,x min ,y max ,y min And establishing a minimum bounding box of the point set; and putting the data points into the corresponding network units, and establishing a corresponding relation between the data points and the network units. And after the point cloud data is subjected to gridding, corresponding to a pair of binary images with the size of M x N, wherein if the number of points in the corresponding grid is zero, the pixel value is 0, and otherwise, the pixel value is 1. And judging each grid, if the point number of the grid is not zero and the point number in 8 neighborhood grids is not zero, determining the grid as a non-boundary grid, otherwise determining the grid as a boundary grid. And placing the point cloud in the boundary grid into a corresponding storage container.
S4: performing boundary line fitting on the extracted boundary points, filling the boundary points of the vacant positions, and eliminating points with abnormal value deviation larger than a set threshold value;

The embodiment of the invention provides a method for identifying a travelable area based on laser perception, which comprises the following steps:
as shown in fig. 2-4, step one: a64-line laser radar is installed right in front of the automatic driving mine car, and in order to more fully acquire the road condition of the environment in front of the short-distance car, the laser radar is installed at an angle inclined downwards by 30 degrees horizontally. And calibrating external parameters from the laser radar to the vehicle body coordinate system after the installation is finished, and recording external parameter data for coordinate transformation of point cloud. The relevant parameters of the laser radar adopted by the invention are shown in the table 1.

Angular sampling accuracy And (2) vertically: 0.01 °/level: plus or minus 0.01 degree
Frequency of rotation 10Hz
Step two: and acquiring front road point cloud data acquired by the laser radar, and performing point cloud down-sampling filtering. Traversing all points in the point cloud, eliminating points with coordinate values equal to the NaN value, and eliminating points with coordinate values smaller than a certain distance (considered as the point cloud of the scanned vehicle body). And (4) carrying out coordinate system transformation on the point cloud data, and transferring all point clouds from the radar coordinate system to the vehicle body coordinate system. And (4) defining a plane point cloud to detect the ROI, and intercepting the point cloud positioned in the ROI to obtain the preprocessed point cloud.
Step three: sorting the preprocessed point cloud according to the height of the z axis, removing partial points with abnormal height of the z axis, and marking as non-ground points; points with z-axis height near the ground height are defined as seed points, which are used to build an initial planar model describing the ground.
The concept of Lowest Point Representation (LPR) is introduced. The LPR is the average of the lowest elevation points and ensures that the plane fitting phase is not affected by measurement noise. The LPR is regarded as the lowest point of the whole point cloud P, and the points in the point cloud P with the height within the threshold value are regarded as seed points, and the seed points form a seed point set.
Step four: next, we need to determine a plane to which the distance of the orthogonal projection of the point in the point cloud is less than a threshold Th dist The point is considered to belong to the ground, otherwise it belongs to the non-ground. We use a simple linear model for the planar model estimation and then use three singular vectors to describe the spread of the point set in three main directions. Since it is a plane model, a normal vector perpendicular to the plane represents a direction having the smallest variance, and can be found by calculating a singular vector having the smallest singular value.
Step five: after selecting the seed point set and evaluating the initial plane model, we calculate the distance of the orthogonal projection of each point in the point cloud to the plane, and compare this distance with a set threshold Th dist And comparing, when the height difference is smaller than the threshold value, the point is considered to belong to the ground, and when the height difference is larger than the threshold value, the point is a non-ground point. And all the classified ground points are taken as a seed point set of the next iteration, and the iteration optimization is continued. And finally obtaining the segmented ground point cloud through certain iteration times.
Step six: and receiving the segmented ground point cloud, firstly establishing a minimum bounding box of the data point set, and segmenting the data point set by using a rectangular network with a given interval.
For calculation convenience, a 3D data point set is converted to an xy plane through coordinate conversion to obtain a plane point set.
As shown in FIG. 3, the most common meshing method is uniform meshing, where all points are first traversed to obtain x max ,x min ,y max ,y min And establishing a minimum bounding box of the point set;
and putting the data points into the corresponding network units, and establishing the corresponding relation between the data points and the network units.
Step seven: after the ground point cloud is meshed, distributing each point to each grid, firstly calculating the row and the column of the point according to the coordinate of the current point, and then adding the point to the grids of the corresponding row and the column.
And after the point cloud data is meshed, corresponding to a binary image with the size of M x N, wherein if the number of points in the corresponding mesh is zero, the pixel value is 0, and otherwise, the pixel value is 1.
And judging each grid, if the point number of the grid is not zero and the point number in 8 neighborhood grids is not zero, determining the grid as a non-boundary grid, otherwise determining the grid as a boundary grid. And putting the point cloud in the boundary grid into a corresponding storage container. As shown in fig. 4.
Step eight: the road boundary points obtained by the above steps may be discontinuous or even have a relatively large deviation of abnormal values. And fitting the obtained boundary points by using a B spline curve, filling the boundary points at the vacant positions, and removing part of abnormal points.
Due to the characteristics that noise is acquired by point cloud and the boundary of the unstructured road in a mining area is not obvious, the boundary points acquired in the steps have certain deviation, and when a cubic B-spline curve is used for carrying out segmentation fitting, no middle control point is set. Except for the starting point P 0 End point P N In addition, the intermediate point will pull the curve towards itself, but will not pass the intermediate point.
When the multi-point cubic B spline is in the segment fitting, P is used 0 、P 1 、P 2 、P 3 Drawing the 1 st sample curve, P 1 、P 2 、P 3 、P 4 Drawing the curve of the No. 2 sample strip, P N-3 、P N-2 、P N-1 、P N And drawing the curve of the (N-2) th sample strip. The curves are connected with each other and have C 2 The stages are sequential.
