The rendering illustrates the current enclosure concept. Whole-robot configuration, terrain capability and software integration require validation against the prototype and site conditions.
Discuss your applicationStarting with site requirements
Research assesses tracked-platform requirements around mine passages, equipment layouts and observation points.
Environmental sensing
Assess cameras, LiDAR and other sensors against inspection targets, including sensor placement and retention of observation records.
Inspection workflows
Connect movement, observation and record keeping with maps, inspection points and task feedback, while validating OmindOS integration.
Mining fieldwork · Earlier research
Tracked-platform research underground
The team has conducted research in underground metal mines, including driving and environmental data capture with an earlier tracked platform. These field records inform T1 requirements and future validation.
The videos show an earlier research platform whose appearance and configuration differ from the current T1 enclosure concept. They do not establish T1 performance or certification.
Explore mining field recordsDefine configuration and validation around the task
Start with a single route and inspection point. Confirm the robot configuration, software version and evaluation method before expanding the test scope.
Site conditions
Check passage dimensions, slopes, obstacles, lighting and communications coverage. Define operator intervention and fault-handling procedures.
Hardware and software
Select sensors and onboard computing for the task, then confirm control interfaces and the scope of OmindOS integration and testing.
Test records
Link routes, inspection points, original imagery and operator interventions. Assess suitability using the specific configuration and recorded test results.
The published field records come from underground metal-mine research. Applications in potentially explosive atmospheres require separate review of the exact model, certification documentation and site access requirements.
