Benewake HD Solid-state Lidar Sensing system CE**-A for AGV UGV Rovers obstacle avoidance



CE**-A is a solid-state infrared LiDAR which is developed based on the ToF principle. Equipped with its special hardware design, it could complete the measurement of wide horizontal FOV and output the grey and depth information at the same time.



With its specially optimized obstacle avoidance mode, the detecting area of interest could be set, and the single-point projection distance information of the nearest distance point could be transferred through CANBUS. Compared with single-line scanning LiDAR, CE**-A does not contain any rotating compartments, which could ensure the reliability of the long-time work and a wider vertical detecting range.

1.Principle of RangingThe ranging principle of CE**-A is based on Time of Flight (TOF). CE**-A emits modulated near-infrared light, which will be reflected by the object and received by CE**-A again. CE**-A calculates the phase difference and time difference between the emitted and received light, which will be further converted to the clearance of the shot scene.

Figure 4 - Application in obstacle avoidance mode. Compared with the single horizontal detection of the 2D Scan LiDAR (Check the red line), the CE**-A can better avoid the low obstacles on the ground.





On the working mode, CE**-A could detect all positions within the detecting range (within the detecting FOV) and return the distance information. 



The farthest detecting range of each angle has been optimized for general obstacle avoidance scenarios, which is different from regular detecting range. The schematic diagram is shown in Figure 6 (Customization is available for special requirements).



 2.Description of Obstacle Avoidance

2.1.Obstacle Avoidance ModeThe obstacle avoidance mode of CE**-A is especially developed for the robot obstacle avoidance application. Under this mode, CE**-A will select out the most critical obstacle for the robots and provide the information to the robots.



The principle of the obstacle selection is as follows: CE**-A selects the nearest obstacle to LiDAR and handles detecting resources and computing resources in a centralized manner, to return the azimuth and vertical distance of the obstacle more precisely.

 

Among them, azimuth represents the angular deviation between the obstacle and the dead ahead position of LiDAR (0 for dead ahead position, negative for left and positive for right) and the degree of trajectory deflection that the robot requires to avoid the obstacle.

Vertical distance represents the distance from the obstacle to the robot (the robot is square at default and LiDAR is installed on the front surface of the robot) and the emergent level for the obstacle avoidance.

 

2.2.Setting Warning Region under Obstacle Avoidance ModeIn many cases, not all objectives within the detecting range deserve the warning or obstacle avoidance response of the robot. We set the function of warning zone under the obstacle avoidance mode. With the function, though CE**-A still detects the whole detecting range, it only sends warning signals and obstacle information to the robot when there are objectives in the warning area.



We could set the region of interest (ROI) by the width and depth:

Width refers to a width of a LiDAR-centered area extending symmetrically. It's usually the same as that of the robot, i.e. the width of the robot in the direction of forward motion.Depth refers to the vertical distance to the LiDAR, for which the front surface of LiDAR is set to be the zero plane. Usually, it corresponds to the distance that the robot needs to make brake response to obstacles.

 

Under the obstacle avoidance mode with ROI setting, CE**-A will preferentially trace the obstacles in the ROI. For example, Objective A inside the ROI and Objective B outside the ROI exist simultaneously. Even though Objective B is nearer to CE**-A than Objective A, CE**-A still returns the information of Objective A rather than Objective B.
