Abstract

Przedmiotem wynalazku są sposoby i układ do szacowania napełnienia pojemnika. W sposobie otrzymuje się trójwymiarową (3D) chmurę punktów z czujnika głębokości skierowanego w stronę otwartego końca pojemnika ładunkowego (102), przy czym chmura punktów zawiera wiele punktów, z których każdy ma określoną wartość głębokości. Segmentacja trójwymiarowej chmury punktów pomiędzy wiele elementów siatkowych umożliwia obliczanie odpowiedniej objętości elementu siatkowego załadowanej części pojemnika dla każdego elementu siatkowego. Obliczone objętości elementów siatkowych służą do obliczenia objętości części załadowanej pojemnika w pojemniku ładunkowym oraz do obliczenia szacowanego napełnienia pojemnika ładunkowego w oparciu o obliczoną objętość i ładowność pojemnika oraz mogą być przesyłane obliczone szacowane napełnienie pojemnika ładunkowego.The invention relates to methods and a system for estimating the filling of a container. The method obtains a three-dimensional (3D) point cloud from a depth sensor facing the open end of the cargo container (102), the point cloud comprising a plurality of points each having a predetermined depth value. Segmentation of the three-dimensional point cloud between a plurality of mesh elements enables the computation of the appropriate mesh element volume of the loaded container portion for each mesh element. The calculated volumes of the mesh elements are used to calculate the volume of the loaded part of the cargo container in the cargo container and to calculate the estimated filling of the cargo container based on the calculated volume and loading capacity of the cargo container, and the calculated estimated filling of the cargo container can be transmitted.
