Use of Computer vision for Automation of a Roadheader in Selective Cutting Operation
International audienceState-of-the art of automation in roadheaders Most of the experimental work for roadheaders automation has been centered in the operations which imply cutting a complete section which has a constant profile, or shows only slight changes, and with an arrangement of the cutting sequence subject basically only to the restrictions arising from the geometrical or geotechnical conditions. Nowadays, the market offers Systems able to control automatically the cutting of a fixed profile, which are applied to build roadways or tunnels
Mining robotics: Application of computer vision to the automation of a roadheader
International audienceAutomation of mining operations involves the use of sensing, remote monitoring and control systems in order to confront a variety of situations and environmental conditions. The need of profitability of a mine sometimes requires that selective cutting be performed in order to separate rich ore from waste at the cutting stage. Basically, the problems to be solved are those of modelling an uncontrolled, changing mine environment and programming the machine to cut a pattern accordingly. We present in this paper how image segmentation and classification, 3-D scene perception and path planning can cooperate to solve such a complex problem as selective cutting
