Continued development of semi-autonomous obstacle avoidance drone for underground mining
EF 2018-19 · 2018-07-09
Résumé
As we move to transform the mining industry with applied drone Technology we are building on the base platform of our DB2 unit to create a DB3 unit that has the ability to support the pilot with recognize environments and avoid collisions. Our current unit in operation supports imaging and 360 degree LiDAR. Our Project goal is to increase "flight support" and decrease the needed skill level of the pilot. This will make the technology more accessible to a broader group of operational staff, reduce the risk of loss during flight and increase the success rate in complex flight plans. Over all the project will create a product that has more applications underground and is easier to use.

Description (French)
Au fur et à mesure que nous transformons l'industrie minière avec la technologie appliquée de drone, nous nous appuyons sur la plate-forme de base de notre unité DB2 pour créer une unité DB3 capable de reconnaître des environnements et d'éviter les collisions. Notre unité en cours d’exploitation prend en charge l’imagerie et le LiDAR à 360 degrés. Le but de notre projet est d’augmenter le « support de vol » et de réduire le niveau de compétence nécessaire du pilote. Cela rendra la technologie plus accessible à un groupe plus large de personnel opérationnel, réduira le risque de perte pendant le vol et augmentera le taux de réussite dans les plans de vol complexes. Dans l'ensemble, le projet créera un produit, qui aura plus d'applications souterraines et sera plus facile à utiliser.
