Navigational components for electrified mining machines

Purpose and goal:

The project has met its objective by actively analyzing the possibilities for an advanced camera system to increase safety and productivity in future automation solutions for underground mines. Physical tests in a real underground mine have been carried out, which has led to an increased understanding of the opportunities and challenges of the current technology. A good basis for further analysis has been achieved.

Expected results and effects:

The project has clarified under which conditions and in which environments the advanced camera solution is best suited as a building block in automation solutions for mining machines. Approach and implementation: The following layout and implementation plan has been followed: - Initial tests and analysis of existing data collection technology

- Carry out a concept study which, based on the camera solution, shows how the technology can be used for automation solutions. - Analysis of test results and proposals for possible further development steps have been generated
