Abstract
Collision Avoidance Systems (CAS) are rapidly gaining importance worldwide in both underground and open pit mining due to their significant contribution to improving safety around mobile machinery.
In general, the rate of fatal accidents within the ICMM group has more than halved over the past ten year.
The presentation begins with an overview of collision avoidance technologies. This is followed by a concept for the methodical approach to implementing a modern collision avoidance system, which also includes a traffic guidance system for further support. A traffic guidance system also serves as preparation for autonomous navigation tasks of future unmanned loading and transport systems.
