Internet of Things Based 3D Assisted Driving System for Trucks in Mines

摘要

To reduce the surface mining accidents related to low visibility conditions and the truck blind spots, to provide the 3D information for the truck drivers and real time monitored truck information for the remote dispatcher, the 3D assisted driving system (3D-ADS) based on the internet of things, using the GPS, the mesh-wireless networks and the Google-Earth engine as the graphic interface and mine-mapping server was developed. The research results indicate that 3D-ADS system potentially increases reliability and reduces uncertainty in open pit mining operations by customizing the local 3D digital mining map, constructing the truck 3D models, tracking vehicles in real time using a 3D interface and indicating available escape routes for driver safety.
