ABSTRACT

Aiming at the problem of blind area of safety monitoring in electric power operation site, an intelligent following car based on ultrasonic positioning is designed in this paper. The target coordinates are calculated by dual-chip ranging to achieve ± 10 cm accuracy tracking, supporting a maximum identification distance of 10 meters and a dynamic response of 1.5 m/s. The system adopts STM32F103RBT6 main control board, integrates ultrasonic sensor and wireless communication module, and combines with base-station and tag positioning mechanism to solve the problem of monitoring failure caused by manual intervention lag of traditional monitoring equipment. The test shows that the car can last for 4 hours under the condition of slope ≤ 15 ° and load 30 kg, which effectively improves the efficiency of operation safety management and control.
