Autonomous control system road construction machine

Abstract

The increasing requirements for the accuracy of construction work lead to the need to create modern control systems that will eliminate the human operator from the process of controlling road construction machines, increase the energy efficiency and productivity of these machines, as well as the quality of the finished construction object. The use of unmanned control systems has become an absolute technological break-through. Improving the accuracy of work with the help of unmanned control systems is an urgent and complex area of research. This is due to the need to improve algorithms and improve sensors to more accurately de-termine the coordinates of the machine and make decisions. Only by possessing high accuracy, modern unmanned vehicles are able to minimize errors in construction work and associated safety risks. To do this, it is necessary to provide the ability to recognize and analyze various factors, such as moving objects, weather conditions, terrain, etc. The article presents the results of a functional analysis of a number of road construction machines, defines the range of tasks that a modern unmanned control system should solve, describes a possible implementation option for such a system, and shows the differences in flowcharts of working processes of construction machines both without automatic control systems and equipped with standard and developed automatic control systems.
