Abstract
A method for drivable area detection and autonomous obstacle avoidance of unmanned haulage equipment in deep confined spaces is disclosed, which includes the following steps: acquiring 3D point cloud data of a roadway; computing a 2D image drivable area of the coal mine roadway; acquiring a 3D point cloud drivable area of the coal mine roadway; establishing a 2D grid map and a risk map, and performing autonomous obstacle avoidance path planning by using a particle swarm path planning method designed for deep confined roadways; and acquiring an optimal end point to be selected of a driving path by using a greedy strategy, and enabling an unmanned auxiliary haulage vehicle to drive according to the optimal end point and an optimal path. Images of a coal mine roadway are acquired actively by use of a single-camera sensor device.
