Abstract: in power distribution network construction,drilling and pole-erecting machine as critical equipment, their intelligent operation accuracy and safety are significantly affected by unstructured and complex road environments. To address the obstacle detection problem of drilling and pole-erecting machine during unstructured road operations, this article proposes a detection method based on multi-sensor fusion. By integrating camera and LiDAR data with a decision-level fusion strategy, the method effectively enhances the accuracy and robustness of obstacle detection. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach significantly reduces both the false detection rate and missed detection rate, providing strong support for the accurate and safe operation of drilling and pole-erecting machine.

Key words: drilling and pole-erecting machine, multi-sensor fusion, unstructured road, obstacle detection, decision-level fusion
