Berth Guidance

Berth Guidance

Application Context

Automatic parking guidance system can improve the efficiency of aircraft parking and gate operation, and reduce the pressure on the airport caused by the increase of passengers. However, many airports are reluctant to introduce the system due to the cost.

Relying on Benewake 3D LiDAR technology, it can not only provide higher precision, faster, all-round and reliable real-time detection capability for the berth guidance system, but also help the localization of the berth guidance system and reduce the cost. Improve the safety factor and operation efficiency of the whole system, save labor costs, reduce accidents, and bring new experience to passengers.

Application Instruction

Different from traditional 3D scanning technology, Benewake Horn-X2 long-range high performance 3D LiDAR has a larger field of view and a longer operating range, while taking into account high resolution and high reliability. On the basis of realizing function replacement, it also has more flexible application development potential and reduces cost. At present, based on the 3D imaging algorithm of Benewke Horn-X2 LiDAR, the aircraft contour, aircraft size (length, width and height) and other information can be detected in real time, and the functions of aircraft type matching, target tracking, accurate positioning and safety protection and early warning can be realized. Can be combined with the camera for video monitoring, trigger abnormal situation capture.

a. High reliability: independent research and development of optical mechanical structure, 3D ranging performance, after 100000 sets of accumulated experience of mass production products every year, positioning accuracy is less than 0 ± 1 m, azimuth accuracy < 0.2°

b. All weather automatic monitoring: 1550nm light source is used, meeting the class 1 laser safety level. IP65 dustproof and waterproof grade, can work stably in strong light, rain, fog, haze and other environments. It has passed the national standard anti vibration and EMI tests, and passed the third-party test in the transportation industry.

c. Full coverage: Horn-X2 long-distance detection over 300m, covering the safe passage area of the whole fuselage under the working conditions of straight and turning, and reserving a longer response time for braking.

d. Low overall cost: Horn-X2 has low maintenance cost, which is conducive to the localization of berths and reduces the overall cost.

e. Supporting secondary development: Horn-X2 has realized the localization replacement of key components, and the original point cloud data is completely open, the supporting algorithm software and SDK are also open to customers, which can be integrated with other sensors, and support customers to customize more practical functions, which can bring long-term benefits.
