Description

本発明はヘリコプターや飛行船等飛翔体が障害物に接近した時、予め決められた距離で画像認識比較照合による危険及び警告を発するシステムに関する。The present invention relates to a system for issuing a danger and warning by image recognition comparison and collation at a predetermined distance when a flying object such as a helicopter or an airship approaches an obstacle.

飛翔体または移動物体の障害物を検知する手段としては、撮影位置の異なる2画像のデータを比較して物体の距離を検出するステレオ測距法(例えば特許文献1参照)、超音波センサで障害物を検知する方法(例えば特許文献2参照)、カメラの画像とレーダ装置の組み合わせで相対距離を算定する方法(例えば特許文献3参照)、障害物の形状と特徴を画像認識することで立体的に検出する方法(例えば特許文献4参照)、電磁波のビームを障害物に照射してその反射波から相対位置を測定、撮像して画像認識によって障害物を認識する方法(例えば特許文献5参照)、CCDカメラとレーザ距離計を組み合わせて障害物を検知する方法(例えば特許文献6参照)等が提案されている。As means for detecting an obstacle of a flying object or a moving object, a stereo distance measuring method (for example, refer to Patent Document 1) that detects the distance of an object by comparing data of two images with different shooting positions, and an obstacle with an ultrasonic sensor A method for detecting an object (for example, see Patent Document 2), a method for calculating a relative distance by combining a camera image and a radar device (for example, see Patent Document 3), and a three-dimensional image by recognizing the shape and characteristics of an obstacle. (For example, see Patent Document 4), a method of irradiating an obstacle with an electromagnetic wave beam, measuring a relative position from the reflected wave, imaging and recognizing the obstacle by image recognition (see, for example, Patent Document 5) A method of detecting an obstacle by combining a CCD camera and a laser distance meter (for example, see Patent Document 6) has been proposed.

前記で提案されているレーザ、超音波を使用する方法では、障害物が平面で且つ入射角度が小さい時は検知できるが入射角度が大きい場合や複雑な形状または反射率の小さい物体では検知されない恐れがある(特許文献2、特許文献3、特許文献5)。又これまでの画像認識による距離測定方法では単体の物体では容易でも複数の物体が存在した時は特定が難しい(特許文献1、特許文献4)。他にもレーダを利用する方法も存在するが小型化軽量化が難しく高価であるという課題がある。In the method using the laser and the ultrasonic wave proposed above, the obstacle can be detected when the obstacle is a plane and the incident angle is small, but it may not be detected when the incident angle is large or an object having a complicated shape or a low reflectance. (Patent Document 2, Patent Document 3, and Patent Document 5). Further, the distance measurement method based on image recognition so far is easy for a single object, but is difficult to identify when there are a plurality of objects (Patent Documents 1 and 4). There are other methods using radar, but there is a problem that it is difficult to reduce the size and weight and is expensive.

このような課題を解決するために本発明に係わる飛翔体の障害物接近警告システムは、中心に固定された1台のCCDカメラと、それぞれ等距離に配設される上下、左右に1台ずつのCCDカメラと、中心のCCDカメラを除く上下、左右のCCDカメラのレンズは伸縮しないで上下或いは左右に方向が可動する構造になっていて,内部に全てのCCDカメラを配設した障害物検知センサは前面が透明カバーで覆われていて飛翔体の進行方向の前面に固定されている。In order to solve such problems, an obstacle approach warning system for a flying object according to the present invention includes one CCD camera fixed at the center and one each vertically and horizontally arranged at equal distances. The CCD camera and the top and bottom, left and right CCD cameras except for the central CCD camera are designed to move in the vertical and horizontal directions without expansion and contraction. The front surface of the sensor is covered with a transparent cover, and is fixed to the front surface of the flying object in the traveling direction.

前記上下のどちらか1台と左右のどちらか1台のCCDカメラのレンズは半固定になっていて、距離設定スイッチを押してレンズの方向を変えて目的の距離に設定できる。残りのそれぞれ1台のCCDカメラは連続して障害物をスキャンし、障害物までの距離をコントロールボックスの距離表示LEDに表示させる。The lens of either one of the upper and lower CCD cameras or the left and right CCD cameras is semi-fixed, and the distance can be set to a desired distance by pressing the distance setting switch. Each of the remaining one CCD camera continuously scans the obstacle and displays the distance to the obstacle on the distance display LED of the control box.

飛翔体の操縦席に設置されるコントロールボックスには、CCDカメラのレンズ方向を制御する信号と距離を手動で設定する電子回路と、画像を認識比較照合処理する電子回路と、障害物検知センサに供給する電源回路と、3台のモニタディスプレーと距離表示LEDと、危険告示灯及び警告灯が配設されている。The control box installed in the flight control seat of the flying object includes a signal for controlling the lens direction of the CCD camera and an electronic circuit for manually setting the distance, an electronic circuit for image recognition and comparison processing, and an obstacle detection sensor. A power supply circuit to be supplied, three monitor displays, a distance display LED, a danger notification lamp and a warning lamp are arranged.

Inside the obstacle detection sensor (FIG. 1) whose front surface is covered with the transparent cover 2, a CCD camera 11a in which a circuit board (not shown) is housed in the Gabox 30 without the lens moving mechanism. And CCD cameras 11b, 11c and 11d, 11e that are semi-fixed or scanned with lens moving mechanisms at equidistant positions on the top, bottom, left and right of the CCD camera 11a, monitor displays 52a, 52b, 52c, A distance setting switch 53 for freely setting the distance between the display LED 51 and the obstacle (for example, point h in FIG. 5), an image recognition circuit including an MPU for processing image data, a data comparison / collation circuit, and a lens movable mechanism are driven. And a control box 50 which integrates a built-in circuit and a power supply circuit on a single circuit board (not shown).

前記レンズ可動機構はステッピングモータ34と、回転を減速させる複数の歯車(図示せず)を内蔵するギャボックス30と、該ギャボックス30に固定するブラケット33とレンズ固定ブラケット31で構成されていて、レンズ固定ブラケット31にはレンズ32とCCDイメージセンサ(図示せず)を配設する回路基板35が固定されている。レンズ固定ブラケット31はブラケット33の両端を支点に左右に回転させてレンズ32の方向を変える。レンズ32を上下方向に変えるCCDカメラ11d、11eは、CCDイメージセンサ(図示せず)の配設を変えて全体を90度回転させた位置で筐体に組み込まれている。The lens moving mechanism includes a stepping motor 34, a gabox 30 containing a plurality of gears (not shown) for decelerating rotation, a bracket 33 fixed to the gabox 30, and a lens fixing bracket 31. A circuit board 35 on which a lens 32 and a CCD image sensor (not shown) are disposed is fixed to the lens fixing bracket 31. The lens fixing bracket 31 changes the direction of the lens 32 by rotating left and right with both ends of the bracket 33 as fulcrums. The CCD cameras 11d and 11e that change the lens 32 in the vertical direction are incorporated in the housing at a position rotated by 90 degrees as a whole by changing the arrangement of a CCD image sensor (not shown).

左右の半固定CCDカメラ11b、11cのどちらか1台と上下のCCDカメラ11d、11eのどちらか1台は、コントロールボックス50に配設されている距離設定スイッチ53で障害物までの距離(例えば図5のh点)を自由に設定できる。残りの各々1台は前記CCDカメラで設定された距離(例えば図5のh点)から無限大の距離まで、またはその逆に連動してスキャンし、その距離を距離表示LED51に表示する。該距離表示LED51の表示は設定する距離とスキャンした距離を自動的に切り換えて表示している。CCDカメラ11aと半固定CCDカメラ11bまたは11cと11dまたは11eの各々の画像は、それぞれのモニタディスプレー52に全体画像が常時映し出されている。CCDカメラ11a、11b、11c、11d、11eの筐体がCCDカメラ固定板10に固定されていて、該CCDカメラ固定板10は固定板1に内部で固定されている。Either one of the left and right semi-fixed CCD cameras 11b and 11c and one of the upper and lower CCD cameras 11d and 11e are distanced to an obstacle by a distance setting switch 53 disposed in the control box 50 (for example, The point h in FIG. 5 can be set freely. Each remaining one scans from the distance set by the CCD camera (for example, point h in FIG. 5) to an infinite distance or vice versa, and displays the distance on the distance display LED 51. The display of the distance display LED 51 automatically switches between the set distance and the scanned distance. The entire images of the CCD camera 11a and the semi-fixed CCD camera 11b or 11c and 11d or 11e are always displayed on the respective monitor displays 52. The casings of the CCD cameras 11a, 11b, 11c, 11d, and 11e are fixed to the CCD camera fixing plate 10, and the CCD camera fixing plate 10 is fixed to the fixing plate 1 inside.

次に作用について説明する。
飛翔体から障害物までの距離はCCDカメラ11aの画像データをテンプレートとして半導体メモリに録画し、CCDカメラ11b、11c、11d、11eの画像データの形状とその輪郭が一致した時の距離である。CCDカメラ11a、11b、11c、11d、11eの画像データは同時に定間隔で複数回取り込まれて、それぞれ画像メモリ上でn分割(例えば水平方向を5分割、垂直方向を3分割)されていて、それぞれの画像を認識比較照合して判定される。
Next, the operation will be described.
The distance from the flying object to the obstacle is a distance when the image data of the CCD camera 11a is recorded in the semiconductor memory as a template and the shapes of the image data of the CCD cameras 11b, 11c, 11d, and 11e coincide with the outline thereof. The image data of the CCD cameras 11a, 11b, 11c, 11d, and 11e are simultaneously fetched a plurality of times at regular intervals, and each of them is divided into n on the image memory (for example, the horizontal direction is divided into 5 and the vertical direction is divided into 3). Each image is determined by recognition and comparison.

CCDカメラ11b、11c、11d、11eのそれぞれのレンズ32をCCDカメラ11aの方向に傾ける(図5)と、CCDカメラ11aのn分割された画像(図6)F2X1、F2X2、F2X3、F2X4、F2X5と、CCDカメラ11d及び11eのn分割された画像の形状とその輪郭がそれぞれで一致する。CCDカメラ11aのn分割された画像(図6)F1X3、F2X3、F3X3と、CCDカメラ11b及び11cのn分割された画像の形状とその輪郭が一致する。When the respective lenses 32 of the CCD cameras 11b, 11c, 11d, and 11e are tilted toward the CCD camera 11a (FIG. 5), the n-divided images (FIG. 6) of the CCD camera 11a (FIG. 6) F2X1, F2X2, F2X3, F2X4, F2X5 And the shape of the n-divided images of the CCD cameras 11d and 11e and the outline thereof match each other. The n-divided images of the CCD camera 11a (FIG. 6) F1X3, F2X3, and F3X3 and the shapes of the n-divided images of the CCD cameras 11b and 11c coincide with the contours thereof.

数字がアップダウン可能の距離設定スイッチ53で、距離(例えば図5のh点)を設定する半固定CCDカメラ11bまたは11cのどちらか1台とCCDカメラ11dまたは11eのどちらか1台は、それぞれのステッピングモータ34に加えるパルス数と距離との相関を予め決めていて、コントロールボックス50に配設された距離表示LED51に距離を表示し、距離設定スイッチ53から手を放すと距離が設定されて表示がスキャンする距離に自動的に切り換わる。Either one of the semi-fixed CCD camera 11b or 11c and one of the CCD cameras 11d or 11e for setting the distance (for example, the point h in FIG. 5) and the one of the CCD cameras 11d or 11e are respectively set by the distance setting switch 53 that can be up and down. The correlation between the number of pulses applied to the stepping motor 34 and the distance is determined in advance, the distance is displayed on the distance display LED 51 provided in the control box 50, and the distance is set by releasing the distance setting switch 53. The display automatically switches to the scanning distance.

連動してスキャンするCCDカメラ11bまたは11cのどちらか1台と、CCDカメラ11dまたは11eのどちらか1台のステッピングモータ34に加えるパルス数と距離との相関がとられていて、CCDカメラ11aのn分割された画像(図6)のF2とX3の交わる画像と、2台のスキャンするCCDカメラの中心の画像がANDで一致した時に距離表示LED51に距離が表示される。The number of pulses applied to one of the stepping motors 34 of the CCD camera 11b or 11c and the CCD camera 11d or 11e that scans in conjunction with each other is correlated with the distance of the CCD camera 11a. The distance is displayed on the distance display LED 51 when the image obtained by intersecting F2 and X3 of the n-divided image (FIG. 6) coincides with the center image of the two CCD cameras to be scanned by AND.

n分割された画像(図6)データでCCDカメラ11aのF2とX3の交わる画像データが、半固定CCDカメラ11bまたは11cのデータと一致し、且つ半固定CCDカメラ11dまたは11eの画像データが一致した時(AND)を危険と判断して危険告示灯を点灯または点滅させる。F2とX3の交わる画像データ以外の画像データF2X1、F2X2、F2X4、F2X5と、F1X3、F3X3がそれぞれで一致した時は警告灯を点灯または点滅させる。F2とX3の交わる分割画像以外は飛翔体から左右または上下の距離が離れているので危険性はなく事故になることはない。危険告示灯と警告灯はブザーと併用してもよい。In the n-divided image (FIG. 6) data, the image data of F2 and X3 of the CCD camera 11a coincides with the data of the semi-fixed CCD camera 11b or 11c, and the image data of the semi-fixed CCD camera 11d or 11e matches. (AND) is judged to be dangerous, and the danger notification lamp is turned on or blinked. When the image data F2X1, F2X2, F2X4, F2X5 and F1X3, F3X3 other than the image data intersecting with F2 and X3 coincide with each other, a warning light is turned on or blinked. Except for the divided images where F2 and X3 intersect, the left and right or top and bottom distances are away from the flying object, so there is no danger and no accident occurs. The danger warning light and warning light may be used in combination with the buzzer.

半固定またはスキャンするCCDカメラ11b、11c、11d、11eの画像データと、固定されたCCDカメラ11aの画像データは厳密には一致しないが、障害物の位置に設定する距離に比してCCDカメラ相互間の距離は短く、傾きの角度が少さいのでそれぞれの画像データを認識比較照合する際に障害物の外形とその輪郭を照合して、高い確率で一致した場合に同等と判定する。Although the image data of the CCD cameras 11b, 11c, 11d, and 11e that are semi-fixed or scanned do not exactly match the image data of the fixed CCD camera 11a, the CCD camera is compared with the distance set at the position of the obstacle. Since the distance between each other is short and the angle of inclination is small, the contours of the obstacles and their contours are collated when the respective image data are recognized, compared and collated.
