Engineering machinery equipment, and method, system, and storage medium for safety control thereof

This invention describes a safety system for heavy construction equipment like excavators. It uses a specific set of multiple sensors to scan the work area, identify obstacles using both images and 3D point cloud data, and then calculates a safe operating zone for the machine's moving arm, specifically by limiting its inclination angle. The system then automatically restricts the machine's movement to prevent collisions.

Why it matters: Since 2020, advancements in real-time computer vision and edge AI processing have made robust obstacle recognition and position determination significantly more feasible. This could simplify the complex sensor data processing and control logic required for the system.
