Abstract

An intelligent mobile patrol method and system are provided. The method includes identifying a patrol task; accumulating on-site visual data; uploading the on-site visual data; automatically importing equipment exceptions; and consolidating and transmitting an obtained patrol record data.

Claims (29)

1. An intelligent mobile patrol method, comprising:

via a processor, sending a patrol task to an intelligent mobile device bound with Near Field Communication (NFC);

via the intelligent mobile device, identifying the patrol task to collect patrol data including on-site photos, recordings, and videos, wherein the patrol data is accumulated as on-site visual data;

via the processor, instructing the intelligent mobile device to upload the on-site visual data to a memory for intelligent processing and analysis operation, so as to query historical patrol records in real time and analyze a maintenance rate, a missing inspection rate and an equipment availability rate;

via the processor, instructing the intelligent mobile device to upload point patrol records to the memory for storage in real time by using WiFi, and automatically import equipment exceptions into a missing library in the memory; and

via the processor, consolidating and transmitting an obtained patrol record data to the intelligent mobile device, so as to push a real-time patrol task and receive patrol results;

wherein the intelligent processing and analysis operation comprises:

via the processor, performing image preprocessing operation on screen information of the on-site visual data to obtain processed visual data;

via the processor, performing features extracting operation on the processed visual data to obtain corresponding feature data in the screen;

via the processor, identifying the feature data and comparing the feature data with data in database; and

via the processor, according to comparison and screening results, extracting historical data of corresponding database for data accounting, and updating the patrol data to form a new patrol task;

wherein: the image preprocessing operation comprises:

transforming each pixel gray scale of the visual data to expand the gray scale range of a visual data image;

improving the visual data clarity to balance the spatial pixel value uniformity of the visual data image; and

performing fuzzy enhancement at an edge of pixel, so as to strengthen boundary distinction;

the features extracting operation comprises:

via the processor, adopting gamma correction method to standardize the color space of visual data image;

via the processor, calculating gradient of each pixel of the visual data image to capture the contour information and weaken the interference of light;

via the processor, dividing the visual data image into small cells to count the gradient histogram of each small cell;

via the processor, forming every several small cells into a block to obtain a feature block of a block; and

via the processor, concatenating the feature block to obtain feature data of the visual data image for classification.

2. The intelligent mobile patrol method according to claim 1 , wherein that via the processor, instructing the intelligent mobile device to upload point patrol records to the memory for storage in real time by using WiFi, and automatically import equipment exceptions into a missing library in the memory, comprises:

via the processor, instructing an equipment standing book to record equipment information, and to provide an inquiry of the equipment information, wherein the equipment information is configured to reflect the basic parameters of the equipment and the maintenance history, so as to provide necessary information for the daily maintenance and management of the equipment; and

via the processor, instructing the intelligent mobile device to transfer exception sheets, so as to complete an equipment defect management process of exception import, exception elimination and exception elimination acceptance, and at the processor, conducting equipment exceptions statistics in multiple dimensions.

3. The intelligent mobile patrol method according to claim 1 , wherein that via the processor, consolidating and transmitting obtained patrol record data to the intelligent mobile device, so as to push a real-time patrol task and receive patrol results, comprises:

via the processor, automatically generating the real-time patrol task based on the obtained patrol record data, and pushing the real-time patrol task to the intelligent mobile device, wherein the real-time patrol task uses a combination of statistical graphics and form data for multi-dimensional stereoscopic push; and

via the processor, automatically generating a regular work of related positions according to a cycle, and instructing the intelligent mobile device to upload the patrol results to the memory.

4. An intelligent terminal comprising one or more processors and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the intelligent terminal to perform an intelligent mobile patrol method.

5. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising memory with instructions encoded thereon, the instructions, when executed by one or more processors, causing the one or more processors to perform an intelligent mobile patrol method.
