automation

 Mine equipment
automation comes in four
different forms: remote
control, teleoperation,
driver assist, and full
automation.
Remote control

 Remote control mining

equipment usually refers to
mining vehicles such as
excavators or bulldozers that
are controlled with a
handheld remote control.
An operator stands in line-of-
sight and uses the remote
control to perform the
normal vehicle functions.
Teleoperated
mining equipment

 Teleoperated mining
equipment refers to mining
vehicles that are controlled
by an operator at a remote
location with the use of
cameras, sensors, and
possibly additional
positioning software
Driver assist
Full automation

"Full automation" can refer to the autonomous

control of one or more mining vehicles.
Benefits
Drawbacks

 Critics of vehicle
automation often focus on
the potential for robotic
technology to eliminate
jobs while proponents
counter that while some
jobs will become obsolete
(normally the dirty,
dangerous, or monotonous
jobs), others will be created.
