  • Patent number: 11556732
    Abstract: A method for extracting rivet points in large scale three-dimensional point cloud based on deep learning is provided. Geometric attribute scalar of a point cloud of aircraft skin is calculated point by point, and the scalar attribute domain is mapped to the two-dimensional image to obtain a two-dimensional attribute scalar map of the point cloud. The 2D attribute scalar map is processed using a convolutional neural network and the probability that each point belongs to a rivet point is calculated. The rivet point cloud is divided through a threshold according to the probability; and the point clouds belonging to a same rivet is clustered from the divided rivet point cloud using Euclidean cluster.

  • Patent number: 11532121
    Abstract: A method for measuring a seam on aircraft skin based on a large-scale point cloud is disclosed. A point cloud density of each point in an aircraft skin point cloud is calculated. Seam and non-seam point clouds are divided according to a discrepancy of the calculated point cloud density. A point is selected from the point cloud of the seam area, and a section at the point is extracted. A certain range of the seam and non-seam point clouds is projected to the section and a projected point cloud is acquired. A calculation model of flush and gap is constructed, and the flush and the gap of the aircraft skin seam at the measuring point is calculated according to the projected point cloud and the calculation model.
