LiDAR Real-time Scanning
LiDAR-powered real-time terrain scanning for safer, more precise digging operations.
Leveraging the latest advancements in LiDAR and GNSS–IMU–fused positioning and attitude measurement, our solution delivers tailored systems for industries seeking to harness these technologies to enhance operational performance.
This solution delivers a real-time LiDAR scanning and guidance system designed for shovel operations in active mines, enabling operators to dig to design with greater precision. It emphasizes real-time visibility of dig-face geometry relative to the mine plan, enhanced pass-by-pass loading feedback, and reduced reliance on manual staking or frequent survey intervention at the face. dig3D represents a customized implementation of this solution, and we collaborate closely with customers —including mining companies and ports— to develop tailored systems aligned with their specific operational requirements.
What this enables
- Real-time dig-face and machine context for operator decision support.
- Supports load and movement efficiency improvements through immediate feedback workflows.
- Enables richer terrain review with point-cloud data for engineering and operations teams.
Best fit for
- Open-pit mining teams optimizing shovel productivity and plan adherence.
- Operations requiring stronger integration between field execution and dispatch targets.
- Sites seeking safer, lower-friction terrain visibility workflows around active equipment.
Capabilities
Real-time terrain and guidance visibility
Operators get immediate 3D situational context to support grade control, dig boundary awareness, and reduced rework.
Operational performance telemetry
Pass-level loading visibility and movement context help teams tune productivity, loading consistency, and execution against plan.
Point-cloud replay and analysis path
Captured terrain data supports deeper post-shift review, reconciliation workflows, and continuous improvement conversations.
