METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING A LOADER BASED ON BINOCULAR VISION Russian patent published in 2023 - IPC E21D9/10 G06T7/10 G06T7/20 

FIELD: mining.

SUBSTANCE: method and apparatus for controlling a roadheader based on binocular vision, in which status information corresponding to the cutting surface area and status information corresponding to the material laying area are determined by binocular vision technology, then a target task to be performed by the roadheader is determined, and a target position corresponding to the target task according to the status information corresponding to the cutting surface area and the status information corresponding to the material laying area. Then, the roadheader is guided from the starting position to the target position, which corresponds to the cutting surface area or to the material laying area, by tracking its movement through binocular vision, thereby realizing identification and positioning for the target task, which corresponds to the cutting surface area or the material laying area located in a tunnel, using binocular vision technology. The roadheader is then directed to move to the target position, so that the roadheader performs the target task, and after the target task is completed, the roadheader is controlled according to the map data of the environment surrounding the roadheader to move from the target position to the starting position along the path movement.

EFFECT: improved efficiency.
