Abstract

See full text

A collision detection system including a proximity sensor, positioning sensor, and controller. The controller includes a memory storing instructions, and a model of the machine that includes dimension information of the machine, location information of the proximity sensor, and pose information of movable portions of the machine. A processor is connected to the proximity sensor, positioning sensor, and memory, and is configured to update pose information of the model based on the pose of the movable portions determined using the positioning sensor. The processor may receive a detection of the object from the proximity sensor. The processor may determine an expected detection result of the proximity sensor using the model, and based on the location information of the proximity sensor and the updated pose information. The processor may compare the detection with the expected detection result to determine whether the detection results from the movable portion or a foreign object.
