A next generation high level sensing system to enable safe and high level automation of industrial vehicles.

Project description

Taking autonomous vehicles to the next level

In the realm of autonomous systems, measurements reflecting the surrounding environment need to be as accurate as possible in order to promote safety. Funded by the European Innovation Council, the Tripleye 3D Perception System project will offer game-changing solutions for the safe and efficient operation of autonomous industrial vehicles. Specifically, it will develop a camera-based perception system that relies on the use of algorithms to provide advanced 3D spatial analysis. The project coordinator, German company Tripleye, will enhance its software stacks and conduct real-world testing, paving the way for a brighter future in autonomous technology. This innovation captures the vital 3D spatial data necessary for advanced automation.

Objective

The problem with todays autonomous system architectures is that minimal changes in the camera alignment of less than 1 mm can lead to significant misalignments and invalidate measurements of the surrounding environment, leading to major safety concerns in autonomous vehicles. Tripleye has invented the COP (Circular optical perception) to solve this issue. The COP is a next generation camera only computer vision system that uses proprietary algorithms (named KIEV and RubberStereo) together with a fisheye camera to triangulate and capture high level 3d spatial components needed for advanced automation. Specifically, COP offers a revolutionary solution for the safe and efficient operation of earthmoving, material handling, and automated guided vehicles. During the proposed EIC project, Tripleye will look to upgrade its software stacks, integrate the system into material handling/earth moving machines in a real working environment for iterative testing.
