In some embodiments, referring to fig. 1, 2 and 4, the panoramic camera sensing device 10 includes a forward-facing camera 11, a forward-facing rear-facing camera 12 and a rear-facing front-facing camera 13. Referring to fig. 4, the range shown by a thick solid line is an illustration of the sensing range of the front-facing camera 11, and the range shown by a thick broken line is an illustration of the sensing ranges of the front-facing rear-facing camera 12 and the rear-facing front-facing camera 13. The forward camera 11 is arranged in front of the automobile and used for sensing obstacles in the forward direction of the automobile 60; the front and rear view cameras 12 are respectively disposed at corners of both sides of the front end of the automobile 60, that is, front ends of both sides or both sides of the front surface, and are used for sensing obstacles in the front side direction and the rear oblique direction of the automobile 60.

The rear front camera 13 at the rear left corner can sense left front side and left front oblique obstacles of the automobile 60, and the rear front camera 13 at the rear right corner can sense right front side and right front oblique obstacles of the automobile 60. Through the arrangement, the panoramic camera sensing device 10 meets the requirement of identifying obstacles in different directions, the sensing ranges of the cameras are overlapped, and safety redundancy is improved.
In some embodiments, forward facing camera 11 may employ a telephoto lens and/or a wide-angle lens. In daily driving, the automobile 60 is forward to being main driving direction, therefore through adopting telephoto lens and/or wide-angle lens, make forward camera 11 can obtain forward to go up farther perception distance or wider visual field angle to acquire the information of more obstacles, promoted driving safety.

By adopting the wide-angle lens, the overlapping areas of the sensing ranges of the front rear-view camera 12 and the rear front-view camera 13 in the left side direction and the right side direction of the automobile 60 are increased, so that the safety redundancy is improved; the increase of the view field angles of the front rear view camera 12 and the rear front view camera 13 also reduces the view field blind areas of the front oblique direction and the rear oblique direction of the automobile 60, and improves the driving safety.
It will be appreciated that mounting the front and rear looking cameras 12, 13 on a rotatable base also achieves the purpose of extending the sensing range. Therefore, the sensing range of the front-rear-view camera 12 may cover a part of the front oblique region and a part of the forward-rearward region, and the sensing range of the rear-front-view camera 13 may cover a part of the rear oblique region and a part of the forward-forward region.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 4, at least two front rear-view cameras 12 are respectively disposed at corners where two side surfaces of the automobile 60 are connected with the front, and at least two rear front-view cameras 13 are respectively disposed at connecting positions where two side surfaces of the automobile 60 are connected with the rear. By arranging the front rear-view camera 12 and the rear front-view camera 13 at the above positions, the view field angles of the front rear-view camera 12 and the rear front-view camera 13 are improved, and the shielding of the body of the automobile 60 on the view field ranges of the front rear-view camera 12 and the rear front-view camera 13 is prevented, so that the driving safety is improved.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 1, 2, and 5, lidar sensing device 20 includes a front-looking down lidar 21, a rear-looking down lidar 22, a forward level lidar 23, a corner lidar 24, and a rear lidar 25. Referring to fig. 5, the range indicated by a thick solid line is an illustration of the sensing ranges of the forward horizontal lidar 23 and the backward lidar 25, the range indicated by a thick broken line is an illustration of the sensing range of the corner lidar 24, the range indicated by a thick chain line is an illustration of the sensing ranges of the forward looking down lidar 21 and the backward looking down lidar 22, and the range indicated by a thick two-dot chain line is an illustration of the sensing range of the lateral lidar 26.
Specifically, the front down-view laser radar 21 is disposed diagonally downward above the front of the automobile 60 to sense an obstacle in the front direction of the automobile 60; the rear-view laser radar 22 is disposed diagonally downward above the rear of the automobile 60 to sense an obstacle in the rear of the automobile 60. The front overlook laser radar 21 and the rear overlook laser radar 22 are obliquely and downwards directed to the ground surface, so that the front overlook laser radar and the rear overlook laser radar can sense small obstacles and pits on the ground surface, and a driving path is conveniently planned. The forward horizontal lidar 23 is disposed horizontally below the front of the automobile 60 to sense obstacles in the forward direction of the automobile 60. And corner laser radars 24 respectively disposed at corners of both sides of the front end of the automobile 60 to sense obstacles in the forward and lateral directions of the automobile 60. The corner lidar 24 located at the front-end left corner can sense obstacles in the forward direction, the left-front oblique direction, the right-front oblique direction, the left forward lateral direction and the left backward oblique direction of the automobile 60, and the corner lidar 24 located at the front-end right corner can sense obstacles in the forward direction, the left-front oblique direction, the right forward lateral direction and the right backward oblique direction of the automobile 60. The lateral laser radars 26 are respectively disposed below both side surfaces of the automobile 60, for example, at the center positions below both side surfaces to sense an obstacle in the lateral direction of the automobile 60. The lateral lidar 26 located at the center of the left side of the automobile 60 may sense the front left, and rear left obstacles of the automobile 60, and the lateral lidar 26 located at the center of the right side of the automobile 60 may sense the front right, and rear right obstacles of the automobile 60. And a backward lidar 25 horizontally disposed behind the automobile 60 to sense an obstacle in the backward direction of the automobile 60.
Through the arrangement, the laser radar sensing device 20 meets the requirement of identifying obstacles in different directions, and identifies small obstacles and pits on the ground surface, so that risks on a driving path are further avoided, the sensing ranges of the laser radars are overlapped, and safety redundancy is improved.
In some embodiments, front and rear overhead lidars 21 and 22 may employ three-dimensional solid state lidars. Since the front and rear downward-looking laser radars 21 and 22 only need to sense obstacles in the forward direction, and the backward direction of the traveling route of the automobile 60, and obstacles in the forward and backward directions that may need to turn, and do not need an excessively large angle of field, and recognizing small obstacles and pits on the ground surface requires high scanning accuracy and high speed, it is preferable to employ a three-dimensional solid-state laser radar.
Since the forward direction is the main driving direction of the automobile 60 and it is necessary to quickly and accurately identify obstacles appearing in the forward direction, in some embodiments, the forward horizontal lidar 23 may be a three-dimensional solid-state lidar.
In some embodiments, the corner lidar 24 employs a mechanical rotation type multiline lidar, such as a 16-line lidar, so that the corner lidar 24 obtains a larger view angle to cover the forward direction and the lateral direction of the automobile 60, the sensing range is enlarged, the view dead angle is reduced, a larger overlapping area is generated, and the safety redundancy is further improved. It will be appreciated that the angle lidar 24 may also employ a combination of solid state radars to achieve the above-described objectives.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 5, at least two corner lidar 24 are respectively disposed at the corners where the two side surfaces of the automobile 60 are connected with the front surface, so that the view angle of the corner lidar 24 is fully utilized, the shielding of the automobile body of the automobile 60 to the emitted laser beam is reduced, and the corner lidar 24 respectively located at the left side and the right side are overlapped in the sensing range in the front direction, thereby improving the safety redundancy.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 5, the two lateral lidar 26 are respectively disposed below the central positions of the left and right side surfaces of the automobile 60, so that the lateral direction of the automobile 60 is monitored at any time, the defect that a blind area may exist right below the corner lidar 24 is overcome, small obstacles located in the lateral direction and nearby cannot be sensed is avoided, and safety redundancy is improved. Meanwhile, the lateral laser radar 26 can better take the perception ranges of the front oblique direction and the rear oblique direction into consideration, timely perceive the environmental change on the adjacent lanes, reduce the blind area and reduce the driving risk. Lateral lidar 26 may employ mechanical lidar.
The probability of rear-end collisions from the rear is lower than the probability of collisions from the front, so in some embodiments, the rear lidar 25 employs a mechanically rotating single line lidar, which reduces cost while meeting the need to cover the rear sensing range. In some embodiments, referring to fig. 1 and 6, millimeter-wave radar sensing device 30 comprises a millimeter-wave radar disposed in front of vehicle 60, and referring to fig. 6, the range shown by the thick solid line is illustrative of the sensing range of millimeter-wave radar sensing device 30.

In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 8, the looking-around camera sensing device 50 includes looking-around cameras disposed at the top center of the front, top center of the left and right sides, and top center of the back of the vehicle 60, respectively. Through the layout, the all-around cameras respectively obtain better view field angles in all directions, and the view field angles of the all-around cameras are overlapped, so that view field blind areas are prevented.
The expression "central" above should not be understood to mean the median of the respective planes, including the median and the areas around the median.
It is understood that, in order to provide a better field of view for the operator and leave a buffer time for the operator to operate, the distance of the field of view of the looking-around camera sensing device 50 is not less than 5 m.
