Haul Truck Reversing Camera System
Haul Truck Reversing Camera System
In recent years, mining truck transportation accidents have frequently occurred. For example, a mining accident in China was caused by the driver's illegal operation, speeding on a slippery downhill section of the mine tunnel, resulting in vehicle loss of control, one fatality, and an economic loss of $200,000. Mining trucks pose numerous risks during mineral extraction processes. The natural environment in mining areas is harsh, with severe dust, complex terrain, and limited visibility for drivers, which can create blind spots. Additionally, improper driver behaviors such as smoking, making phone calls, distractions, and fatigue driving also pose safety risks.
Safety has always been a concern for mining area management in traditional mining truck transportation. For instance, collisions are likely to occur when drivers fail to notice other vehicles or workers in time. Issues like fatigue driving, if not detected promptly, can lead to unnecessary troubles.
YUWEI Mining Truck Reversing Camera System Solution
AVM 360° Surround View Imaging
To reduce the driving risks for mining trucks, YUWEI launched the AVM 360° Surround View Imaging System in 2023, addressing the blind spot issue. The system integrates images from multiple cameras to provide a full panoramic view, reducing blind spots and improving operational safety. It provides real-time images to help drivers accurately judge distances and spatial relationships, reducing the likelihood of accidents.
AVM 360° Surround View Imaging not only solves the blind spot problem but also incorporates visual algorithms to realize additional functions:
- Pedestrian Detection: Real-time detection of people around the truck, alerting the driver.
- Vehicle Detection: Real-time detection of other vehicles, alerting the driver to operate safely.
- Obstacle Detection: Displays surrounding obstacles and alerts the driver for safe operation.
- Trajectory Planning: Helps the driver accurately understand the driving route.
- Environmental Perception: Automatically adjusts image display effects according to environmental changes.
DMS Driver Assistance System
To address the operational dangers of mining truck drivers, YUWEI introduced the DMS Driver Assistance System. The DMS monitoring system tracks the driver's status, detecting fatigue driving and unsafe behavior, reducing the risk of accidents.
The system uses cameras to monitor the driver's facial expressions, eye status, and head movements to assess attention and behavior. By analyzing the data, the system can detect abnormal conditions in time and alert the driver through sound, light, or even intervene in the vehicle's operation to avoid accidents.
- Video Monitoring: Monitors the driver and surrounding conditions, enhancing safety and accountability in accidents.
- Identity Verification: Verifies the driver's identity and authorizes operation, preventing unauthorized driving, improving safety levels.
The DMS system, combined with AI technology, analyzes driver behavior, provides personalized management, customizes training programs, and enhances the driver's safety awareness and skills.
With the highlights of AVM 360° Surround View Imaging and DMS Driver Assistance System, YUWEI's smart mining truck solutions effectively address the driver's blind spot and operational dangers, improving driving safety and efficiency. In the future, YUWEI will continue to optimize intelligent mining truck technology and integrate more AI algorithms to provide more comprehensive solutions for the mining industry.
