Abstract

A guide display device of a crane including a data processing unit that creates a plurality of surfaces using point cloud data, which is acquired by a laser scanner from above a hung load and which includes the hung load, and creates a three-dimensional map according to the plurality of surfaces, the three-dimensional map being created for each prescribed period, wherein the data processing unit is configured to set a reference position at the hung load in the three-dimensional map and also set a current surface present within a prescribed distance from a past reference position as the surface of the hung load, thereby tracking the hung load in the three-dimensional map.

Claims (13)

1. A guide display device of a crane, comprising:

a data processing section configured to create a plurality of planes by using point group data including a lifting cargo acquired with a laser scanner from above the lifting cargo, create a three-dimensional map with the plurality of planes, and create the three-dimensional map at a predetermined time interval,

wherein the data processing section sets a reference position to the lifting cargo in the three-dimensional map, and

wherein the data processing section tracks the lifting cargo in the three-dimensional map by setting a current plane located within a predetermined distance from a past reference position as a surface of the lifting cargo.

2. The guide display device according to claim 1 , wherein the data processing section sets the reference position to a gravity center of the lifting cargo.

3. The guide display device according to claim 2 ,

wherein the point group data is data including the ground surface acquired with the laser scanner from above the ground surface, and

wherein the data processing section sets, as a height of the lifting cargo, a difference in an altitude value between the ground surface and the lifting cargo in the three-dimensional map when the lifting cargo is placed on the ground surface, and calculates the gravity center of the lifting cargo by using the height of the lifting cargo.

4. The guide display device according to claim 2 ,

wherein the point group data is data including a ground object acquired with the laser scanner from above the ground object; and

wherein the data processing section sets, as the height of the lifting cargo, the difference in the altitude value between the ground object and the lifting cargo in the three-dimensional map when the lifting cargo is placed on the ground object, and calculates the gravity center of the lifting cargo by using the height of the lifting cargo.

5. The guide display device according to claim 1 , wherein when tracking of the lifting cargo in the three-dimensional map fails, the data processing section tracks, through image analysis, the lifting cargo in an image including the lifting cargo captured with a camera from above the lifting cargo.

6. A crane comprising the guide display device according to claim 1 .
