The vehicle chassis inspection system 10 according to the embodiment of the present invention may obtain an infrared image and a gray-height image of the chassis of the vehicle by providing the infrared imaging unit 112 and the gray-height image capturing unit 113. Therefore, when the existence of the foreign matter is identified, the infrared image, the gray-height image and the first visible light image are matched so as to obtain the temperature difference and the height difference between the area where the foreign matter is located and the peripheral area of the area where the foreign matter is located, namely the three-dimensional attribute of the foreign matter can be obtained, and the danger of the foreign matter is judged according to the temperature difference and the height difference.
Therefore, misjudgment of the danger of the foreign matters on the chassis of the vehicle can be avoided, so that the identification efficiency can be improved, and the identification accuracy can be improved.
Therefore, the vehicle chassis detection system 10 according to the embodiment of the invention has the advantages of high recognition efficiency, high recognition accuracy and the like. Correspondingly, the vehicle chassis detection method provided by the embodiment of the invention also has the advantages of high recognition efficiency, high recognition accuracy and the like.
As shown in FIG. 1, in some embodiments of the present invention, the vehicle chassis inspection system 10 may include an information collection module 110, a control module, an identity information collection module 160, and an information processing module 170.
The information acquisition module 110 includes a first visible light image acquisition unit 111, an infrared imaging unit 112, and a gray-height image acquisition unit 113. Preferably, the first visible light image collection unit 111 may be a CCD camera, the infrared imaging unit 112 may be an infrared camera, and the gray-height image collection unit 113 may be a laser ranging sensor.
As shown in fig. 1, the gray-height image capturing unit 113 may be a plurality of laser ranging sensors, and a plurality of the laser ranging sensors may be spaced apart along a first preset direction, and two adjacent laser ranging sensors are spaced apart by a preset distance. That is, a plurality of the laser ranging sensors may be aligned to form an array, and distance information is rendered into the gray-height image in real time.
For example, the gray-height image capturing unit 113 may be 19 laser ranging sensors, and 19 laser ranging sensors may be disposed at equal intervals along the first predetermined direction, and two adjacent laser ranging sensors are spaced by 12 cm to 13 cm. Preferably, the first preset direction may be a horizontal direction and perpendicular to a driving direction of the vehicle.
As shown in fig. 1, the vehicle chassis detecting system 10 further includes a vehicle bottom scanning platform 120, a first supplementary light 131 and a second supplementary light 132. By arranging the vehicle bottom scanning platform 120, the driving speed of the vehicle can be reduced, so that the first visible light image, the infrared image and the gray-height image can be obtained more clearly and more accurately. By arranging the first supplementary lighting lamp 131 and the second supplementary lighting lamp 132, the first visible light image acquisition unit 111 can be provided with illumination light with appropriate intensity, so as to obtain a clearer and more accurate first visible light image.
Preferably, the first supplementary lighting lamp 131 is located on a first side (for example, the left side) of the width center line of the underbody scanning platform 120, and the second supplementary lighting lamp 132 is located on a second side (for example, the right side) of the width center line of the underbody scanning platform 120. Wherein, the width central line of the vehicle bottom scanning platform 120 means: the center line of the underbody scanning platform 120 extends along the width direction of the underbody scanning platform 120. The first visible-light image capturing unit 111 can be supplied with illumination light having uniform intensity, so that a clearer and more accurate first visible-light image can be obtained.
As shown in fig. 1, the first fill-in light 131 may be multiple (e.g., three), and the second fill-in light 132 may also be multiple (e.g., three). Preferably, the plurality of first light supplement lamps 131 and the plurality of second light supplement lamps 132 are symmetrical with respect to a width center line of the vehicle bottom scanning platform 120. Thereby, the first visible light image collection unit 111 can be provided with illumination light with more uniform intensity, so as to obtain a clearer and more accurate first visible light image.
In one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, the first visible light image capturing unit 111 and the infrared ray imaging unit 112 are disposed at intervals along a second preset direction in which the first visible light image capturing unit 111 and the infrared ray imaging unit 112 are opposite, the first preset direction being perpendicular to the second preset direction. The results of the vehicle chassis inspection system 10 can thereby be made more reasonable. Preferably, the second preset direction may coincide with a traveling direction of the vehicle.
As shown in fig. 1, each of the first visible light image collection unit 111 and the infrared ray imaging unit 112 is preferably located on a width center line of the vehicle bottom scanning platform 120. Therefore, the relative position relationship between the first visible light image acquisition unit 111 and the vehicle can be consistent with the relative position relationship between the infrared imaging unit 112 and the vehicle, so that the infrared image and the first visible light image can be more accurately matched, the region where the foreign object is located can be more accurately found out on the infrared image, and the temperature difference between the region where the foreign object is located and the peripheral region of the region where the foreign object is located can be more accurately obtained.
The vehicle chassis inspection system 10 may also include a mounting platform 140, and the mounting platform 140 may be located on the ground. The first visible light image capturing unit 111, the infrared imaging unit 112, the inductance coil 116, and the vehicle speed measuring module 150 may be disposed on the mounting platform 140. Preferably, the mounting table 140 may be provided with a mounting groove, and both the first visible light image collection unit 111 and the infrared ray imaging unit 112 may be disposed in the mounting groove.
When the vehicle passes through the information collecting module 110, the inductor 116 may be triggered to turn on the first and second fill lights 131 and 132. Meanwhile, the first visible light image acquisition unit 111 acquires a first visible light image of the vehicle chassis (vehicle bottom), the infrared imaging unit 112 acquires an infrared image of the vehicle chassis, and the gray-height image acquisition unit 113 acquires a gray-height image of the vehicle chassis (scanning three-dimensional information of the vehicle bottom). Preferably, the inductive coil 116 is located on the width centerline of the underbody scanning platform 120.
The control module can also comprise a vehicle detector and a light supplement lamp controller. The car detector may be coupled to the induction coil 116 to control the opening and closing of the induction coil 116. This light filling lamp controller can be connected to each other with first light filling lamp 131 and second light filling lamp 132 to control opening and closing of first light filling lamp 131 and second light filling lamp 132.
As shown in fig. 1, the vehicle chassis sensing system 10 further includes a vehicle speed measuring module 150 for measuring a traveling speed of the vehicle, and the vehicle speed measuring module 150 is located on a width center line of the underbody scanning platform 120. The control module is in communication with the vehicle speed measuring module 150 and is configured to control the line frequency of the first visible-light image capturing unit 111 according to the driving speed of the vehicle measured by the vehicle speed measuring module 150. Thereby, a more complete and clearer first visible light image can be obtained.
Specifically, the vehicle speed measuring module 150 measures the moving distance of the vehicle in the video in unit time through the camera to estimate the driving speed of the vehicle, and the vehicle speed measuring module 150 transmits the speed information to the control module in real time, so as to control the line frequency of the first visible light image collecting unit 111 of the information collecting module 110.
Meanwhile, the identity information collection module 160 collects identity information of the vehicle, which includes at least one of license plate information and vehicle type information.
In some examples of the invention, the information processing module 170 includes a vehicle chassis history image storage unit and a matching calculation unit.
The vehicle chassis history image storage unit is configured to store a vehicle chassis history image, which is an image (visible light image) of the vehicle chassis when there is no foreign matter. The vehicle chassis history image stored by the vehicle chassis history image storage unit may be provided by a police department so as to store the vehicle chassis history images of all the vehicles. When the vehicle chassis inspection system 10 is used in a certain unit (e.g., a certain business, a certain cell, or a certain organization), the vehicle chassis history image storage unit may store only the vehicle chassis history images of the vehicles of the unit. The vehicle chassis history image storage unit may further store vehicle chassis history images of all or most of the vehicle types.
Preferably, the vehicle chassis history image storage unit has a network sharing function.
The information processing module 170 is in communication with each of the information collection module 110 and the identity information collection module 160. For example, the information processing module 170 is in wireless communication with each of the information collection module 110 and the identity information collection module 160. The information collection module 110 may transmit the collected first visible light image, infrared image, and gray-height image of the vehicle chassis to the information processing module 170, and the identity information collection module 160 may transmit the collected identity information of the vehicle to the information processing module 170 (the matching calculation unit).
The matching calculation unit may retrieve the vehicle chassis history image corresponding to the vehicle from the vehicle chassis history image storage unit according to the identity information of the vehicle. The identity information collection module 160 can preferentially collect the license plate information of the vehicle, so that the matching calculation unit can retrieve the historical image of the vehicle chassis of the vehicle from the historical image storage unit of the vehicle chassis according to the license plate information of the vehicle.
The identity information collection module 160 may also collect model information of the vehicle. The matching calculation unit may retrieve a vehicle chassis history image of a vehicle type to which the vehicle belongs from the vehicle chassis history image storage unit, based on the vehicle type information of the vehicle. For example, if the matching calculation unit determines that the vehicle type of the vehicle is wolvo V90 based on the vehicle type information of the vehicle, the matching calculation unit retrieves a vehicle chassis history image of wolvo V90 from the vehicle chassis history image storage unit.
Preferably, the identity information collection module 160 may collect the license plate information and the model information of the vehicle at the same time. Thus, when the vehicle chassis history image storage unit does not store the vehicle chassis history image of the vehicle itself, the matching calculation unit can retrieve the vehicle chassis history image of the vehicle type to which the vehicle belongs from the vehicle chassis history image storage unit according to the vehicle type information of the vehicle.
Then, the matching calculation unit matches the first visible light image with the vehicle chassis history image to identify whether or not a foreign object is present. If no foreign matter exists, the inspection is finished; if foreign matter is present, the foreign matter may be calibrated, for example, with a red frame.
When foreign matters exist, the matching calculation unit performs foreign matter positioning so as to obtain the area where the foreign matters exist, and the matching calculation unit can match the infrared image, the gray-height image and the first visible light image so as to obtain the temperature difference and the height difference between the area where the foreign matters exist and the peripheral area of the area where the foreign matters exist.
Through matching, the region where the foreign matter is located and the peripheral region of the region where the foreign matter is located can be obtained on the infrared image and the gray-level-height image, and further the temperature difference and the height difference between the region where the foreign matter is located and the peripheral region of the region where the foreign matter is located can be obtained.
The region in which the foreign object is located is an image region included in an edge of the foreign object on an image (the infrared image, the gray-height image, the first visible light image). That is, the region where the foreign substance is present refers to an image region included in an edge of a portion of the image where the foreign substance is shown. The peripheral area of the area where the foreign matter is located is an image area obtained by expanding the area where the foreign matter is located outwards. Preferably, the distance between the edge of the peripheral region of the region where the foreign matter is located and the edge of the region where the foreign matter is located may be less than or equal to 15 cm.
When foreign matters such as paper, plastic bags and leaves are attached to a chassis of a vehicle, the conventional detection system cannot acquire the three-dimensional attributes of the foreign matters, so that the risk of the foreign matters is easily misjudged. The vehicle chassis detection system 10 can determine whether the foreign matter is dangerous according to the temperature difference and the height difference between the region where the foreign matter is located and the peripheral region of the region where the foreign matter is located, so that when the foreign matter such as paper, plastic bags, leaves and the like is attached to the chassis of the vehicle, the foreign matter is not considered dangerous, the misjudgment of the danger of the foreign matter is eliminated, and the identification efficiency and the identification accuracy are improved.
Preferably, when the height difference is greater than or equal to the first preset value, it is determined that the foreign object is dangerous. More preferably, the first preset value is 5 cm. Further preferably, the first preset value is 10 cm.
Preferably, when the temperature difference is greater than or equal to a second preset value, it is determined that the foreign object is dangerous. More preferably, the second preset value is 5 degrees celsius. Further preferably, the second preset value is 10 degrees celsius. Because the vehicle itself has higher temperature, when vehicle chassis has the foreign matter to shelter from, and foreign matter thickness is great, because vehicle chassis's specific heat capacity and heat transfer coefficient are different with the specific heat capacity and the heat transfer coefficient of foreign matter, therefore vehicle chassis's temperature has great difference with the temperature of foreign matter. And when the temperature difference is greater than or equal to a second preset value, judging that the foreign matters are dangerous.
The detection information can be recorded in a database, and the file number is 'license plate + vehicle type + date + place'.
The vehicle chassis inspection system 10 may further include an external receiving module 180, the external receiving module 180 being in communication with the information processing module 170, the external receiving module 180 being configured to display the first visible light image, the infrared image, the gray-level-height image, a region where the foreign object is located (a position where the foreign object is located is marked with a red frame), a temperature difference, and a height difference.
Specifically, the external receiving module 180 may include hardware such as a display, a keyboard, a mouse, and the like. The first visible image of the vehicle chassis is displayed on the display in real time and the area of the foreign object is marked with a red frame. The operator (security inspector) can also view the infrared image of the vehicle chassis, the gray-level-height image, the temperature difference, and the height difference via a display.
The operator can call the first visible light image, the infrared image and the gray-height image in real time through a mouse and the like to view, and can perform local amplification. For example, the volume of the foreign matter can be judged by the temperature difference and the height difference. If the abnormal condition is found, the vehicle can be manually warned, and a security inspector in the field is informed to carry out on-site inspection on the vehicle.
The danger as referred to herein means that the vehicle chassis inspection system 10 suggests to the operator that the foreign object may be dangerous in reality, but requires a field check by a security inspector to confirm whether it is dangerous in fact.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the information acquisition module 110 may further include a gas measurement unit 114 for measuring the kind and concentration of gas and a radiation measurement unit 115 for measuring the wavelength and intensity of radiation. The control module further includes a gas measurement unit controller and a radiation measurement unit controller. The gas measurement unit controller is connected to the gas measurement unit 114 to control the opening and closing of the gas measurement unit 114, and the radiation measurement unit controller is connected to the radiation measurement unit 115 to control the opening and closing of the radiation measurement unit 115.
And judging the danger of the foreign matters according to the concentration and the radiation intensity when the foreign matters exist, and judging the danger of the foreign matters when the concentration is greater than or equal to the preset concentration or the radiation intensity is greater than or equal to the preset radiation intensity. It is understood by those skilled in the art that when the concentration is equal to or higher than the predetermined concentration and the radiation intensity is equal to or higher than the predetermined radiation intensity, the foreign matter is also judged to be dangerous.
The vehicle chassis inspection system 10 according to the embodiment of the present invention can obtain the wavelength of radiation, the intensity of radiation, and the kind and concentration of gas by providing the gas measurement unit 114 and the radiation measurement unit 115. Therefore, when the existence of the foreign matters is identified, the danger of the foreign matters can be judged by judging whether the concentration is greater than or equal to the preset concentration or whether the radiation intensity is greater than or equal to the preset radiation intensity. Therefore, misjudgment of the danger of the foreign matters on the chassis of the vehicle can be avoided, so that the identification efficiency can be further improved, and the identification accuracy can be further improved.
Therefore, the vehicle chassis detection system 10 according to the embodiment of the invention has the advantages of high recognition efficiency, high recognition accuracy and the like. Correspondingly, the vehicle chassis detection method provided by the embodiment of the invention also has the advantages of high recognition efficiency, high recognition accuracy and the like.
Both the gas measurement unit 114 and the radiation measurement unit 115 may be provided on the mounting stage 140. Gas measurement unit 114 may be a gas sensor and radiation measurement unit 115 may be a radiation detector.
The information collection module 110 may transmit the collected radiation wavelength, radiation intensity, and the type and concentration of the gas to the information processing module 170 (the matching calculation unit).

More preferably, when the gas measurement unit 114 detects a flammable and explosive gas, the preset concentration is 30% LEL; when the gas measuring unit 114 detects chlorine gas, the preset concentration is 1 ppm; when phosgene is detected by the gas measurement unit 114, the preset concentration is 0.2 ppm; when the gas measurement unit 114 detects sulfur dioxide, the preset concentration is 5 pm; when the gas measurement unit 114 detects formaldehyde, the preset concentration is 0.8 ppm; when the gas measurement unit 114 detects ozone, the preset concentration is 0.2 ppm.
Specifically, when the gas measurement unit 114 detects a flammable and explosive gas, there is no danger of explosion when the preset concentration is less than 10% LEL; when the preset concentration is more than or equal to 10% LEL and less than 30% LEL, the explosion danger exists; when the preset concentration is more than or equal to 30 percent LEL, the explosion danger is very high.
When the gas measuring unit 114 detects chlorine, phosgene, sulfur dioxide, formaldehyde and ozone, respectively, when the preset concentrations are less than 0.5ppm, 0.1ppm, 2pm, 0.5ppm and 0.1ppm, respectively, it is treated as if there is no toxic gas; when the preset concentrations are respectively greater than or equal to 0.5ppm, 0.1ppm, 2pm, 0.5ppm and 0.1ppm and respectively less than 1ppm, 0.2ppm, 5pm, 0.8ppm and 0.2ppm, treating the gas as a toxic gas with a low danger level; when the preset concentration is greater than or equal to 1ppm, 0.2ppm, 5pm, 0.8ppm and 0.2ppm respectively, the treatment of the toxic gas with high danger level is carried out.
Preferably, when the radiation wavelength is long wave, medium wave or short wave, the preset radiation intensity is 10 v/m; when the radiation wavelength is ultrashort wave, the preset radiation intensity is 5 v/m; when the radiation wavelength is microwave, the preset radiation intensity is 10 μ W/cm2,

When the radiation measurement unit 115 detects the radiation intensity, but the radiation intensity is smaller than the preset radiation intensity, the first visible light image may be fused for judgment, and a BP neural network is adopted according to the first visible light image, and the obtained result is subjected to decision layer fusion, so as to obtain a more accurate judgment result.
The external receiving module 180 may also be used to display the first visible light image, the density, and the radiation intensity. The vehicle chassis detection system 10 may further include an alarm module for alarming when the concentration is greater than or equal to a preset concentration or the radiation intensity is greater than or equal to a preset radiation intensity, alerting an on-site security inspector that a dangerous object may exist in the vehicle, and displaying the over-standard value on a display.

That is, the second visible light image may be a front image of the vehicle or a rear image of the vehicle, and the second visible light image may be a front image and a rear image of the vehicle. The information processing module 170 is configured to store the first visible light image and the second visible light image in an associated manner.
The vehicle can thus be checked retrospectively. That is, when the vehicle chassis inspection system 10 does not detect a potentially dangerous material, a newly-appeared dangerous material, but a dangerous event occurs, not only the first visible light image and the second visible light image that are associated can be called up to find the vehicle hiding the dangerous material, but also the vehicle chassis inspection system 10 can be improved.

The control module further comprises a second visible light image acquisition unit controller, and the second visible light image acquisition unit controller is connected with the second visible light image acquisition unit so as to control the opening and closing of the second visible light image acquisition unit.
The first visible light image capturing unit 111 and the second visible light image capturing unit may be disposed at intervals along the second preset direction, and the first visible light image capturing unit 111 and the second visible light image capturing unit are opposite to each other in the second preset direction. The vehicle chassis inspection system 10 can thus be made more structurally sound.
