Description

Real-time acquisition method and device for train operation environment data Technical Field The application relates to the technical field of rail transit data acquisition, in particular to a method and a device for acquiring train running environment data in real time. Background With the rapid development of rail transit, train operation is facing increasingly complex external environments and multiple challenges. Firstly, the surrounding environment of the line is complex and changeable, and sudden working conditions such as foreign matter intrusion, personnel false entry and the like become normals influencing driving safety. Secondly, under severe weather conditions such as night, rain and fog, ice and snow, sand and dust, the visual field of a driver can be severely limited, the effective observation distance is greatly shortened, and even less than hundred meters in extreme cases. This reduction in visibility can directly lead to delays in train signal identification and delays in forward obstacle perception, leading to a dramatic increase in the risk of driving safety. Therefore, how to break through the visual bottleneck of human drivers and realize all-weather and full-range reliable environment perception becomes an urgent technical proposition for guaranteeing the railway transportation safety. To solve the above-mentioned problems, attempts have been made in the prior art to mount sensors on a train to assist the driver in environmental awareness. However, these solutions have the following drawbacks in general: The performance limitation of a single sensor cannot be met all-weather, and the traditional scheme adopted on the current train is mostly dependent on a single type of sensor (such as a camera only). Such sensors may work well under good lighting conditions, but may drop sharply or even fail completely in low visibility scenes such as at night, heavy rain, heavy fog, etc. In addition, a single two-dimensional optical image cannot acquire depth information of a scene, and accurate three-dimensional reconstruction of the environment is difficult, so that the comprehensiveness and reliability of perception are seriously affected. The sensor is fixed in a mounting mode, the sensing range is limited, the sensor module in the prior art is usually mounted on a vehicle body at a fixed angle, and the sensing direction and the pitching angle cannot be changed after the sensor module is mounted. The mounting mode of the solidification lacks flexibility, and once the slope change of a front line, a curve or a specific area needs to be focused, a fixed visual field can not cover key information, so that a perception blind area appears, the best perception data can not be ensured to be acquired, and the scientificity and the accuracy of data acquisition are reduced. Multisource data collaboration is inefficient and lacks an integrated design, which is often a simple device heap even if some schemes attempt to integrate multiple sensors, and lacks an integrated and modular design. Each sensor works independently, data are difficult to synchronize in time, and collaborative calibration is lacking in physical space, so that subsequent data fusion processing is difficult and the efficiency is low. Meanwhile, the scattered layout also brings challenges to installation, power supply and heat dissipation, and influences the stability and safety of the whole system. In summary, the prior art has obvious defects in the environmental adaptability and the sensing flexibility of the sensor and the integrity of the multi-source data collaborative work, and is difficult to meet the urgent requirements of modern trains on high-precision, high-reliability and all-weather real-time sensing of the running environment.
