Autonomous Solutions, Inc. (ASI)

Remote control led or teleoperated equipment embodies a cost-effective entry point into automation for an organisation; however, they do not provide the significant productivity gains and others some organisations require.

ASI’s clients can upgrade from their teleoperated or base remote control solutions to fully autonomous vehicles or haulage systems to enable optimal return on investment. This is accomplished through ASI’s universal robotic technology and client / server-based software system.

Remote control systems use the same technology as fully autonomous vehicles, enabling cost-effective upgrades to be possible.

Safety systems and obstacle detection sensors

ASI provides enhanced productivity automation technologies specifically designed with a multi-tiered safety approach, including hardware, software and sensors.

Each vehicle can be equipped with:

• An onboard emergency-stop (e-stop) button that instantly halts all vehicle functions upon activation
• Onboard computer systems continuously overseeing diagnostics on more than 100 system areas seeking anomalies
• ASI’s Mobius command and control software, containing proximity and choreography features so that vehicle collisions between autonomous vehicles, manned vehicles and known obstacles
• Obstacle detection sensors such as ASI’s Forecast 3D laser system that scan for unknown hindrances such as human or animal traffic and falling debris

Autonomous haulage to improve productivity and safety

Vehicle automation technologies such as ASI’s autonomous haulage system help to dramatically improve productivity while reducing costs.

ASI’s Haulage AI is a highly scalable client / server-based autonomous haulage system that allows individual users to oversee multiple haul trucks constantly tasked in a haulage system.

This one-to-many relationship improves overall productivity by targeting and overcoming cost-drivers such as unscheduled maintenance, vehicle underutilisation, fuel inefficiencies and personnel issues.

Cost-effective entry into vehicle automation

Vehicle automation is one of the key innovations that leads to successful operations, but investing in new robotic-enabled vehicles or retrofits of existing fleets can be expensive.

Teleoperation solutions from ASI allow organisations to validate the effectiveness of robotic technology without significant upfront investments.

Autonomous Solutions fits ground-based vehicles with robotics controlled from a remote command station. One operator is able to control a vehicle with driver assistance software, joysticks and cameras.

Teleoperation enables an organisation to introduce or test automation technologies, as well as increase safety levels by removing operators from potentially hazardous environments.
