Abstract: A system for positioning of a road construction machine of the type paver. The system comprises a first measuring unit configured for continuously generating first measuring data in a first detection range during a movement of the road construction machine and comprising at least a first camera and a first LiDAR sensor module, wherein camera and LiDAR data are recorded covering the first detection range with minimum repetition rate and minimum resolution, and several markers. The system further comprises a data memory, wherein the data memory has stored a 3D design model referenced with respect to a 3D construction site coordinate system and information about a known absolute reference of the several markers in the 3D construction site coordinate system, and a computing unit.

Abstract: A construction machine comprising a chassis, a steering, and a powertrain for driving the construction machine by the chassis, an earth-moving tool for working a terrain, and a measuring system having a first measuring unit configured for generating first measuring data in a first detection range and comprising at least a first camera and a first LiDAR scanner configured for rotating a first measuring beam around a first axis and around a second axis non-parallel to the first axis with a rotating speed of at least 0.5 Hz with respect to each axis, an interface connecting the first measuring unit to a computer configured for, based on the first measuring data, at least one of generating a three-dimensional model of the terrain within the first detection range, identifying an obstacle or a person within the first detection range, and controlling the steering, the powertrain, and/or the earth-moving tool.
