Abstract

The invention discloses a method for autonomous site selection and landing of an unmanned aerial vehicle integrating LIDAR point cloud and image data. The method includes generating a color point cloud image based on the fusion of lidar point cloud data stream and image data stream; calculating at least one smooth area in the color point cloud image, taking the smooth area closest to the UAV as the initial landing point, and controlling the UAV Move to the initial landing point; in the process of moving to the initial landing point, perform visual analysis on the semantic information corresponding to all smooth areas, and filter to obtain at least one safe smooth area; determine the safe smooth area closest to the current position of the drone as The final landing point, control the drone to land to the final landing point. The invention realizes that without relying on unreliable sensor information such as GPS and IMU, the optimal landing point in the area is independently selected for landing over various terrains, and the landing point with potential safety hazard can be quickly and effectively screened.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of automatic control of unmanned aerial vehicles, and in particular, to a method for autonomous site selection and landing of unmanned aerial vehicles integrating LIDAR point cloud and image data. Background technique [0002] As a representative of unmanned aerial vehicles, rotary-wing UAVs have the advantages of vertical take-off and landing, free hovering, and flexible control, and have huge application prospects in the fields of military warfare, resource detection and disaster rescue. At present, the development process of UAV technology is divided into seven stages in the industry. The current technology is between the fifth and sixth stages, that is, UAVs have payload adaptability and certain automatic driving capabilities, and autonomous landing requires UAVs to complete After the mission, the appropriate landing site is automatically selected for landing recovery while considering energy c...
