Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and device for controlling the movement of a vehicle, in particular of the automobile type, from a cloud of three-dimensional data obtained by reflection of waves emitted by sensors on board the vehicle.
- ADAS driver assistance systems
- ADAS Advanced Driver-Assistance System
- French Advanced Driver Assistance System
- the most advanced driving assistance systems control the movement of the vehicle which becomes a so-called autonomous vehicle, that is to say a vehicle capable of driving in the road environment without the intervention of the driver.
- An autonomous vehicle of level higher than 2 must be able to estimate the free space all around the vehicle.
- this type of vehicle is generally equipped with various sensors such as video cameras, LIDAR (in English “Laser Detection And Ranging”) or other which are distributed all around the vehicle, in particular on the windshield, the windshields. front and rear shocks or on the roof.
- the data from these sensors can be used, for example by an ADAS system, to estimate the free space located near the vehicle and thus anticipate the driving of the vehicle to avoid any collision with an object in this environment. This is the case, in particular, when the vehicle is traveling on a lane and is approaching another vehicle. An estimate of the free space located between these two vehicles then makes it possible to anticipate possible braking. This is also the case when the vehicle must park in a parking space. An estimate of the free space between the vehicle and any object, wall, ceiling or other parked vehicle helps prevent a collision. This is also the case when the vehicle is traveling in an urban area where the estimation of the free space located in front, behind or on its sides can prove useful to anticipate any collision with possible cyclists, vehicles, street furniture. or other object.
- An object of the present invention is to improve the existing methods making it possible to control the movement of a vehicle by estimating the free space accessible to it. vehicle from a cloud of three-dimensional data from on-board sensors in this vehicle.
- the invention relates to a method for controlling the movement of a vehicle, comprising a step of acquiring a cloud of three-dimensional data obtained by reflection of waves emitted by sensors on board the vehicle; a step of transforming the three-dimensional data cloud into a two-dimensional point cloud expressed in a polar coordinate frame associated with a plane, to each three-dimensional data item corresponds a two-dimensional point defined by a radial distance between a pole of the polar coordinate frame and the two-dimensional point, and an azimuth angle defined between the plane and a segment connecting the pole and the two-dimensional point; an iterative step of modifying the two-dimensional point cloud by deleting a current two-dimensional point when two neighboring two-dimensional points current two-dimensional point are not sufficiently distant from each other to avoid a collision between the vehicle and an object near this vehicle; and a step of controlling the movement of said vehicle as a function of a convex envelope formed by the two-dimensional point cloud thus modified and defining a free space accessible to the vehicle
- the method transforms the three-dimensional data cloud into a two-dimensional point cloud and determines a polygonal convex envelope from a modified two-dimensional point cloud.
- This convex envelope provides an estimate of the free space accessible to the vehicle.
- a system for controlling the movement of the vehicle implementing the method can then control the movement of the vehicle as a function of this convex envelope.
- the method uses simple geometric principles of low complexity compared to those of a method based on a neural network for example. It therefore requires little computing resources.
- the convex envelopes obtained are representative of what is expected in terms of a convex envelope that closely matches a two-dimensional point cloud while respecting steric non-collision constraints.
- the method does not make use of artificial intelligence techniques, therefore does not suffer from the problems associated with this type of technique such as, in particular, validation and security problems.
- the method is independent of the technology or of the sensor model used, as long as the latter provides a cloud of three-dimensional data obtained by reflection of waves emitted by sensors on board the vehicle.
- the method is robust and capable of respecting the constraints of real hard time. This is one of the crucial elements for the development of autonomous driving systems above level 2 which must also operate in all conditions (night, precipitation, etc.).
- an iteration of the iterative step comprises a sub-step of obtaining at least one current two-dimensional point of the two-dimensional point cloud having a high radial distance; and for each current two-dimensional point, a sub-step of calculating a first minimum distance between a segment connecting a current two-dimensional point and the pole of the reference frame of polar coordinates, and another two-dimensional point of the two-dimensional point cloud determined so as to that the difference between the azimuth angle of said other two-dimensional point and the azimuth angle of the current two-dimensional point is minimal and positive; a sub-step of calculating a second minimum distance between said segment and another two-dimensional point of the two-dimensional point cloud determined so that the difference between the azimuth angle of said other two-dimensional point and the angle of azimuth of the current two-dimensional point is minimum and negative; and a sub-step of removing a current two-dimensional point from the two-dimensional point cloud when the sum of the first and second distances is
- an iteration of the iterative step comprises a substep for obtaining at least one pair formed of a first and a second successive two-dimensional points having distances minimum radials among a set of two-dimensional points sorted according to their azimuth angle; and for each current pair of two-dimensional points thus formed: a sub-step of deleting all the two-dimensional points from the two-dimensional point cloud whose azimuth angles are between the azimuth angles of the first and second two-dimensional points of a current torque when the absolute value of the difference between the azimuth angles of the first and second two-dimensional points of said current torque is less than a threshold value defined to avoid a collision between the vehicle and an object near this vehicle; said two-dimensional points of the two-dimensional point cloud are preserved when the absolute value of said difference is greater than the threshold value.
- the method further comprises an (optional) step of deleting the three-dimensional data corresponding to echoes from the ground. This step removes three-dimensional data which correspond to ground echoes and which are therefore irrelevant for estimating the free space around the vehicle.
- the method further comprises a step of filtering the cloud of two-dimensional points making it possible to keep only a single two-dimensional point per azimuth angle.
- At least one sensor is a transmitter / receiver of electromagnetic waves, preferably in the infrared range, of the LIDAR type or a radio wave transmitter / receiver such as a radar.
- the invention relates to a device for moving a vehicle, comprising at least one emitter / receiver of electromagnetic waves and / or radio waves and a memory associated with at least one processor configured for setting up. implementation of the steps of the above method.
- the invention relates to a vehicle comprising the above device.
- the invention relates to a computer program product comprising instructions adapted for performing the above method steps when the computer program is executed by at least one processor.

- FIG. 8 schematically illustrates a device configured to control the movement of a vehicle of Figure 1, according to a particular non-limiting embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 1 schematically illustrates a vehicle 1, for example a motor vehicle or more generally a land motor vehicle, carrying several sensors 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 according to a particular and non-limiting example of the present invention.
- the sensors 10 and 11 are positioned on the front and rear bumpers of the vehicle 1, the sensors 12 and 13 on the sides and the sensor 14 on the roof.
- This example of the positioning of the sensors as well as the number of sensors are given only as an indication and in no way limit the scope of the invention. Indeed, several other sensors can be positioned in various other places of the vehicle such as on the windshield, windows, doors, etc.
- the sensors 10 to 14 on board the vehicle 1 are sensors suitable for emitting and receiving waves and determining the distance from surrounding objects by analysis of the emitted waves which are reflected on objects located at proximity to the vehicle and in the field of action of these sensors.
- These sensors 10 to 14 are periodically active. The period between two emissions may depend on the movement of the vehicle. It may for example depend on the speed of the vehicle. The faster the vehicle, the shorter the period can be.
- the activity of sensors can still be continuous when, in particular, the vehicle is looking for a parking space and / or is maneuvering to park in a parking space.
- the activation of these sensors can also be individualized. For example, if the vehicle is backing up, the sensors on the front of the vehicle are not activated.
- a sensor once activated, makes it possible to detect objects in the environment of the vehicle and to measure the distance between the sensor and the detected objects. These objects can be, for example, other vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists, street furniture, reflective strips delimiting a parking space, etc.
- the active sensor emits waves that reflect off these objects.
- the active sensor collects these reflected waves and identifies the position and the distance of the objects located near the vehicle 1 as a function of these emitted and reflected waves.
- a multi-dimensional data cloud is then formed. Each of these multidimensional data corresponds to at least one emitted wave which has been reflected by an object.
- the free space accessible to a vehicle is defined as a set of data expressed in a multidimensional space. These data can theoretically take all the possible values in this space of the kinematic parameters of the vehicle, taking into account the constraints of non-collision with objects present around it.
- the multi-dimensional space is a subspace of M 6 corresponding to the three parameters of position (x, y, z) and orientation ⁇ a, b, g) of the vehicle in the space.
- the vehicle will be assumed to be spherical with a sufficient radius to ensure compliance with the non-collision constraints.
- the dimensions relative to the orientation are degenerated, and the data space is reduced to a three-dimensional space (x, y, z) as illustrated in figure 2.
- the dimensionality of this three-dimensional space (x, y, z) can be reduced by assuming that a vehicle is moving on a locally flat surface, and that the extension of the instantaneous scene of which the vehicle is the center is much less depending on the 'z axis than along the x and y axes.
- the dimensionality of the three-dimensional space can therefore be reduced to a two-dimensional space (x, y).
- the three-dimensional data obtained from the sensors on board the vehicle will therefore be represented by two-dimensional data expressed in a coordinate system (0, x, y).
- the invention then consists in determining a convex envelope in this two-dimensional space representing the free space accessible to the vehicle 1.
- This convex envelope complies with the constraints of non-collision between this vehicle and any surrounding objects. Due to the discrete nature of the information available, in the form of a three-dimensional data cloud, this convex envelope is a polygon whose vertices are two-dimensional points originating from the three-dimensional data cloud.
- FIG. 3 illustrates a flowchart of the various steps of a method for estimating free space accessible to a vehicle of FIG. 1, according to a particular and non-limiting example of the present invention.
- Each three-dimensional data represents the coordinates of a point in three-dimensional space.
- the three-dimensional data cloud can be represented by a matrix P of dimension 3xN formed of three vectors X, YZ of dimension N representing the coordinates xi, yi, zi of the three-dimensional data Pw [Math 1] with respectively ⁇ and of f Z represents the transpose of the vector X, respectively Y and Z.
- At least one sensor is a transmitter / receiver of electromagnetic waves, for example of the LIDAR type, and / or a transmitter / receiver of radio waves.
- a LIDAR sensor makes it possible to detect objects in the environment of the vehicle and to measure the distance between the sensor and the objects detected by the emission of light rays (electromagnetic waves) emitted by lasers radiating preferably in the non-visible range ( infrared for example).
- the method comprises a step 320 (optional) of deleting the three-dimensional data corresponding to echoes from the ground.
- the segmentation algorithm of B. Douillard et al. (On the Segmentation of 3D LIDAR Point Clouds", 2011 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (http://dx.doi.Org/10.1109/ICRA.2011.5979818)) can be used to isolate three-dimensional data that correspond to ground echoes of other three-dimensional data and remove those isolated three-dimensional data.
- We can also use the algorithm of I. Bogoslavskiy & C. Stachniss (“Efficient Online Segmentation for Sparse 3D Laser Scans", Photogrammetrie - Fernerkundung - Geoinformation 85, 41 (2016) (http://dx.doi.org/10.1007 / s41064-016-0003-y), or that of Y.
- the three-dimensional data cloud Pi is transformed into a cloud of two-dimensional points Mi expressed in a reference frame of polar coordinates (r, ⁇ p) associated with a plane P with r a polar coordinate called the radial distance defined between a pole O of the polar coordinate system and a two-dimensional point belonging to the plane P and f another polar coordinate called the azimuth angle defined between the plane P and a segment connecting the pole O and the two-dimensional point of the plane P as shown in the figure 5.
- each three-dimensional datum Pi corresponds a two-dimensional point Mi of the plane P.
- the case may arise where several two-dimensional points share the same azimuth angle. This may be due to a mode of operation of a sensor which can record several echoes for a single emitted wave, for example when the laser beam meets a window, then a solid obstacle further away. This can also be due to the sampling steps of the sensors to determine an azimuth angle.
- the transform of the three-dimensional data cloud Pi represented by points Mi expressed in the coordinate system (0, x, y), into a cloud P s of two-dimensional points Mi expressed in a coordinate system with polar coordinates (t, f) is given by:
- P s is a 2xN-dimensional matrix formed by two vectors R and F of dimension N and the function arctan2 is the four-quadrant arc tangent giving the value of an angle in the interval [0,2p [.
- P s can therefore be described as a function of a single scalar variable r ( ⁇ p).
- the method comprises a step 340 (optional) which filters the three-dimensional data cloud Pi by keeping only a single two-dimensional point Mi per azimuth angle value.
- step 340 when several two-dimensional points share a same azimuth angle value and different radial distance values, only the two-dimensional point having the smallest radial distance is kept in the two-dimensional point cloud.
- step 340 when several two-dimensional points share the same azimuth angle value and different radial distance values, a two-dimensional point is created with said azimuth angle value and an equal radial distance to a value obtained from the values of the radial distances of these two-dimensional points such as the average or the median of these radial distances.
- the cloud Ps of two-dimensional points is modified by deleting a current two-dimensional point when two two-dimensional points neighboring the current two-dimensional point are not sufficiently distant from each other to avoid a collision between the vehicle and an object near that vehicle.
- the two-dimensional point cloud Ps thus modified forms a convex envelope of the free space accessible to the vehicle.
- a step 360 the movement of the vehicle is controlled by a control system which implements the previous steps to obtain this cloud P s of two-dimensional points.
- This two-dimensional point cloud forms a convex envelope of the free space accessible to the vehicle and this control system can then indicate what are the possible movements of the vehicle as a function of this convex envelope.
- FIG. 4 illustrates a flowchart of the various sub-steps of step 350 of FIG. 1, according to a particular and non-limiting exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
- a sub-step 351 at least one current two-dimensional point Mi.max of the cloud P s of two-dimensional points having a high radial distance is obtained.
- a given number of current two-dimensional points Mi.max having the highest radial distances are obtained from the cloud P s of two-dimensional points.
- any two-dimensional point of the cloud Ps of two-dimensional points whose radial distance is greater than a given threshold value is a current two-dimensional point Mi.
- a current two-dimensional point Mi.max is obtained from a subset of the two-dimensional points of the cloud Ps of two-dimensional points.
- a current two-dimensional point Mi.max is then a two-dimensional point of this subset which has the maximum radial distance (the highest among the radial distances of the other two-dimensional points of this subset).
- a subset of the two-dimensional point cloud Ps can be obtained, for example, by grouping the two-dimensional points according to their azimuth angles sorted in ascending order, for example. It is in fact possible to partition a circle into different angular sectors and create a subset of two-dimensional points per angular sector.
- a two-dimensional point having its azimuth angle which belongs to a given angular sector then belongs to the subset associated with this angular sector. It is also possible to envisage forming subsets of a given number of successive two-dimensional points, that is to say of two-dimensional points whose azimuth angles follow one another in a list of the azimuth angles of the two-dimensional points sorted according to an order, for example ascending. A first two-dimensional point is added to a first subset. Then the two-dimensional point whose azimuth angle is the next in the list is also added to this first subset, and so on until the two-dimensional point subset has reached a given number of points two-dimensional. Another sub-subset is then formed until the two-dimensional points of the two-dimensional point cloud Ps are exhausted.
- Sub-steps 352, 353 and 354 are executed for each current two-dimensional point Mi.max
- a first minimum distance D1 is calculated between a segment connecting the current two-dimensional point Mi.max and the pole O of the coordinate system with polar coordinates, and another two-dimensional point Mi + i of the cloud P s of two-dimensional points or, according to a variant, of a subset of the cloud Ps.
- This two-dimensional point Mi + i is determined so that the difference between its azimuth angle ⁇ p i + 1 and l ' azimuth angle (p t of the current two-dimensional point Mi.max is minimal and positive when one considers that the azimuth angles increase in the anti-clockwise direction.
- a second minimum distance D2 is calculated between a segment connecting the current two-dimensional point Mi.max and the pole O of the reference frame of polar coordinates, and another two-dimensional point MM of the cloud Ps of two-dimensional points or, according to a variant, of a subset of the cloud Ps.
- This two-dimensional point MM is determined so that the difference between its azimuth angle and the azimuth angle (p t of the current two-dimensional point Mi is minimal and negative when one considers that the azimuth angles increase in the anti-clockwise direction.
- the distances D1 and D2 ensure that the two-dimensional points Mi + i and Mi-i are the “left” and “right” neighboring two-dimensional points of the closest current two-dimensional point Mi.max.
- the current two-dimensional point Mi.max is then deleted from the cloud P s of two-dimensional points when the sum of the first and second distances D1 and D2 is less than a threshold value T.
- the current two-dimensional point Mi.max is kept when the sum of the first and second distances is greater than the threshold value.
- the method determines whether a new iteration of step 350 is necessary by checking whether a condition is satisfied or not. If a new iteration of step 350 is required, substeps 351 to 354 are executed again. According to one example, the method stops when no two-dimensional point Mi, max is deleted in the previous step.
- the process stops when a number of two-dimensional points have been deleted.
- FIG. 6 illustrates a flowchart of the various sub-steps of step 350 of FIG. 1, according to another particular and non-limiting exemplary embodiment of the present invention.
- At least one pair formed of a first and a second successive two-dimensional points is formed.
- the two-dimensional points of the point cloud P s are sorted according to an order, for example increasing, of their azimuth angles.
- Two two-dimensional points are then said to be successive when the difference in azimuth angles is minimal.
- a first and a second two-dimensional point form a couple when they are successive and when they have the smallest (minimum) radial distances among the radial distances of a set of two-dimensional points.
- each pair of two-dimensional points Mj and Mk is obtained from the cloud P s of two-dimensional points.
- the two-dimensional points Mj and Mk are then successive two-dimensional points of the cloud Ps which have a radial distance less than a threshold value.
- each pair of two-dimensional points Mj and Mk is obtained from a subset of the two-dimensional points of the cloud Ps.
- the two-dimensional points Mj and Mk are then successive two-dimensional points of this subset of the cloud P s which have minimum radial distances (the smallest among the radial distances of the other two-dimensional points of this subset of the cloud P s ).
- a subset of the Ps cloud can be obtained, for example, by grouping the two-dimensional points according to their azimuth angles. It is in fact possible to partition a circle into different angular sectors and create a subset of two-dimensional points per angular sector. A two-dimensional point having its azimuth angle which belongs to a given angular sector then belongs to the subset associated with this angular sector. It is also possible to envisage forming sub- sets of a given number of successive two-dimensional points. A first two-dimensional point is added to a first subset. Then the two-dimensional point having a positive and minimum azimuth angle difference with the first two-dimensional point is also added to this first subset. And so on until the subset of two-dimensional points has reached a given number of two-dimensional points. Another sub-subset is then formed until the two-dimensional points of the cloud Ps are exhausted.
- a sub-step 356 illustrated in FIG. 7 for each pair of two-dimensional points Mj and Mk consult the two-dimensional points M P with j ⁇ p ⁇ k, corresponding to the two-dimensional points whose azimuth angles lie between the angles azimuth of the two-dimensional points Mj and Mk are then deleted when the absolute value of the difference between the azimuth angles of the two-dimensional points Mj and Mk is less than a threshold value T. Said two-dimensional points are kept when the absolute value of said difference is greater than the threshold value T.
- step 350 determines whether a new iteration of step 350 is necessary by checking whether a condition is true or not. If a new iteration of step 350 is required, substeps 355 through 357 are executed again.
- the process stops when a given number of two-dimensional points have been deleted.
- the method stops when no two-dimensional point has been deleted in a previous iteration.
- the threshold value T is defined to avoid any collision between the vehicle and an object near this vehicle. Indeed, only the two-dimensional points distant by a value greater than the threshold value T are used to form the convex envelope of the free space.
- the cloud P s is formed from three-dimensional data coming from sensors located on the front of the vehicle, the convex envelope formed by the corresponding two-dimensional points will indicate that the vehicle can pass between these two-dimensional points without risk of collision. It is the same for any convex envelope formed by a cloud of three-dimensional data. modified according to the invention. The vehicle can thus move without risk of collision between the three-dimensional data of the convex envelope.
- the threshold value T varies according to the dimensions of the vehicle.
- the threshold value T is at least equal to the width of the vehicle.
- the threshold value is at least equal to the length of the vehicle.
- the threshold value T is greater than the dimensions of the vehicle to increase the free space and thus facilitate maneuvering of the vehicle inside the convex envelope representing this free space without risk of collision
