ABSTRACT: Results of machine motion analysis for a front shovel are presented. Digging and loading trajec-
tories of the bucket of mine front shovels were recorded during regular mining operations at a surface mine. The
three-dimensional trajectory coordinates are evaluated using multi-camera stereo vision. A new, model-based
image analysis method is used for identifying the basic coordinate system and camera parameters, by relating
the known dimensions of the shovels to the positions of various marker points in a digital video image. The
results of the analysis are used to evaluate typical bucket trajectories for the definition of a suitable “software
kinematics” for the mining machine.
