Autonomous Robots in Mining: The Differences Between Online and Offline SLAM

Autonomous Robots in Mining: The Differences Between Online and Offline SLAM

Written by Raffi Jabrayan, Exyn Technologies There are many ways we can empower robots to navigate their environment autonomously. We can equip them with GPS, use an array of cameras and sensors (including smell), even get them to talk with each other and strategize.  But if you want a robot to do all that on its own without using any […]

Precision Mapping: The Mechanics of SLAM and Its Applications in the Mining Industry

Precision Mapping: The Mechanics of SLAM and Its Applications in the Mining Industry

As industries increasingly lean towards automation, the mining sector stands at the forefront of integrating cutting-edge technologies, like autonomous robots, to enhance operational efficiency and safety. This week’s Blog from Exyn Technologies breaks down what Simultaneous Localization and Mapping means and exploring how they enable robots to ‘see’ and ‘understand’ their surroundings, thereby revolutionizing the mining industry’s approach to exploration and safety management.Precision Mapping: The Mechanics of SLAM and Its Applications in the Mining Industry

Supercharging Survey Teams with Autonomous Cavity Mapping Robots

Supercharging Survey Teams with Autonomous Cavity Mapping Robots

The work of monitoring and surveying large underground structures is complex and potentially dangerous work, using traditional scanning methods this process can take multiple hours of scanning per pillar per mine. But this week’s Blog from Exyn Technologies discusses how new robotic breakthroughs are making it possible for surveyors to map large underground cavities safely and accurately in a matter of minutes.

These Surveyors Were Made For Walkin’: The Impact of 3D Mobile Mapping

In the mining industry, the analysis of underground cavities has traditionally relied on terrestrial laser scanners that are mounted on booms or tripods to capture detailed scans. However, the high-tech world of robotics and AI has help to create a more elegant solution. This week’s Blog from Exyn Technologies talks about their SLAM technology and how it can benefit your mining operations.
