BBUNS: Bluetooth Beacon-Based Underground Navigation System to Support Mine Haulage Operations
A Bluetooth beacon-based underground navigation system (BBUNS) was developed to identify the optimal haul road in an underground mine, track the locations of dump trucks, and display this information on mobile devices. A three-dimensional (3-D) geographic information system (GIS) database of the haul roads in an underground mine was constructed, and the travel time for each section was calculat...
متن کاملHow Mine Simulation Contributes to Future Haulage System Developments
The past decade shows record increases in global demand for minerals and metals with an accompanying significant decline in skilled personnel. Mining companies today are examining new technologies to maximize production, reduce costs, and create safer work conditions to deal with this shortfall. Automation of an open-pit mine haulage system is receiving attention as a beneficial option since it...
متن کاملA New Beacon Navigation System
In this paper a new beacon localisation system for mobile robots in indoor environments is presented. Laser and radiofrequency technologies are combined in order to determine robot's position and orientation by means of a triangulation algorithm. The system allows the identification of the different beacons, which provides the robot's absolute position without requiring the maintenance of a pos...
متن کاملErgonomic and Existing Seat Designs Compared on Underground Mine Haulage Vehicles
NIOSH researchers conducted a study to compare seat designs on underground coal mine haulage vehicles. The objective of the study was to support prior findings that NIOSH-designed seats, which incorporated ergonomic design features (e.g., viscoelastic foam padding and low-back support), are improved designs. Based on measured levels of vehicle jarring/jolting and perceived discomfort, researche...
متن کاملResearch on 3D Positioning and Navigation Technologies in Underground Mine
For the development of mining industry and its urgent demand for positioning and navigation technology, three new underground mine positioning and navigation systems based on the existing positioning technologies would be investigated and studied in this paper, where Wireless Ethernet-based navigation system as a new navigation system is first used in underground mine. Three types of positionin...
