METHOD FOR ANALYZING SHAPE OF OBJECT BY USE OF LIDAR THROUGH ADDITIONAL ANALYSIS OF WHOLE LAYER DATA AND DEVICE FOR TRACKING OBJECT ACCORDING TO THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17984876 titled 'METHOD FOR ANALYZING SHAPE OF OBJECT BY USE OF LIDAR THROUGH ADDITIONAL ANALYSIS OF WHOLE LAYER DATA AND DEVICE FOR TRACKING OBJECT ACCORDING TO THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The present disclosure describes a method and device for analyzing the shape of an object using LiDAR technology.

  • LiDAR points are obtained in multiple layers, spaced apart vertically, by a LiDAR sensor.
  • The LiDAR points of each layer are projected onto a whole layer to obtain a complete set of LiDAR points for the object.
  • Shape flags are determined for each layer and the whole layer by analyzing the LiDAR points using predetermined shape types.
  • The shape flag of the object is determined based on the analysis of the LiDAR points.


Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure relates to a method of analyzing a shape of an object by use of LiDAR and a device for tracking an object according to the same. A method for analyzing a shape of an object by use of LiDAR, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, comprises obtaining first to M(M is an integer of 2 or greater) layers of LiDAR points spaced apart in a vertical direction with respect to an object by the LiDAR sensor, obtaining LiDAR points of a whole layer by projecting whole LiDAR points for the object or LiDAR points of the first to Mlayers onto the whole layer, and determining shape flags for the first to Mlayers and the whole layer, respectively, each by use of at least a part of corresponding LiDAR points of each layer according to a plurality of predetermined shape types, and determining a shape flag of the object.
