Abstract
The load-haul-dump (LHD) unit is used extensively in underground mining to
perform a variety of tasks within this field. The underground mining environment
is extremely dangerous where some LHD accidents have caused major injury
and occasional deaths to the operators onboard these vehicles as well as other
mining crew, this is why a control system implemented onto these vehicles
would be ideal.
This project investigates and finally implements of a tele-operated and
automated control system onto an existing scale model of a LHD unit. Since the
tele-operated system uses a camera, it was decided that the automated system
would also use a simple type of machine vision in its guidance.
