Abstract
Detecting metro gauge is very important for the safe operation of the subway. In this study, we design a low-cost metro tunnel mobile scanning system (MDS-TJ-1), which integrates a laser profile scanner with an inertial measure unit and an odometer to provide positioning and attitude parameters of the trajectory. The Lagrange interpolation is used to accomplish the time unification of different sensors. A dynamic alignment scheme for profile scanner is proposed based on the designed plane reflector target with high reflectivity. The error accumulation of the odometer is corrected by recognising the tunnel longitudinal joints, and finish the multi-source data fusion. The horizontal ray method is developed to process the metro gauge inspection. The experiment results show that the alignment accuracy of scanner is within 8 mm, the inner coincidence of the point cloud is within 3 cm, and the average error of the gauge inspection is 7.8 mm.
