Reduce collision risks and improve operational safety<\/h2>\n\n

In open-pit mining, safety is a constant challenge. Collisions between haul trucks and auxiliary vehicles pose a significant risk due to limited visibility, lack of real-time communication, and difficult terrain conditions. These incidents not only endanger the lives of operators but also result in high repair costs, downtime, and regulatory penalties.<\/p>\n\n

Torsa\u2019s collision avoidance system provides an advanced solution based on 3D LiDAR<\/strong>, AI-powered cameras<\/strong>, and high-precision GNSS with RTK<\/strong>, capable of detecting vehicles, pedestrians, and obstacles without the need for tags<\/strong>. With continuous environmental monitoring and real-time visual and audio alerts, our system ensures safer and more efficient mining operations. It also integrates with fleet management systems to optimise both safety and productivity.<\/p>\n\n

Key benefits of Torsa\u2019s Collision Avoidance System<\/h2>\n\n

      • Custom KPI reports and analysis<\/strong>: supervisors can review safety metrics and take proactive measures based on real-time insights.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n

        How we do it?<\/h2>\n\n

        Our system is equipped with cutting-edge technologies that provide unmatched protection in mining environments. These include:<\/p>\n\n

        3D LIDAR<\/h4>\n\n

        This technology creates a centimetre-precision 3D map of the surroundings. It detects vehicles, mine faces, berms, rocks and other large objects, delivering key data to prevent collisions.<\/p>\n\n

        Artificial intelligence cameras<\/h4>\n\n

        AI cameras continuously analyse the operational environment and automatically detect risk patterns. This component reduces blind spots and enhances response time in critical situations.<\/p>\n\n

        High-precision GNSS (with RTK)<\/h4>\n\n

        GNSS<\/strong> enables the system to pinpoint the exact position of vehicles, even in challenging terrain. It is crucial for generating \u201cdetection tunnels\u201d at haul road crossings and other high-risk areas.<\/p>\n\n

        Compliant with international safety standards<\/h2>\n\n

        Torsa\u2019s collision avoidance system<\/strong> is designed to comply with EMESRT Levels 7, 8 and 9<\/strong>, in line with the requirements of the ICMM\u2019s ICSV programme<\/strong>. Torsa<\/strong> is also ISO 21815<\/strong> certified, ensuring full interoperability with major heavy equipment OEMs.<\/p>\n\n

        EMESRT Level 9: maximum active safety<\/h4>\n\n

        Level 9<\/strong> enables the system to take automatic control of the machinery in critical situations to prevent collisions. This includes speed reduction or brake activation on ramps, road crossings, or haul areas with excessive speed. These proactive actions protect both the operators and the assets.<\/p>\n\n

        Predictive algorithms and elimination of false positives<\/h4>\n\n

        Torsa<\/strong> has developed an advanced algorithm that analyses multiple parameters in real time\u2014such as speed, direction, slope, altitude, and point clouds detected by 3D LiDAR<\/strong>. This predictive approach minimises false alarms and ensures that action is only taken in response to real risks.<\/p>\n\n

        One example is road intersection monitoring: the system draws a \u201cdetection tunnel\u201d ahead of the truck to identify potential hazards and trigger the appropriate preventive actions. This anticipatory response is key to preventing accidents.<\/p>\n\n

        Proven results in the mining industry<\/h2>\n\n

        A leading copper mine in South America implemented Torsa\u2019s collision avoidance system<\/strong> and achieved a 30% reduction in collision incidents<\/strong>. This translated into millions in savings on repair costs and improved operational continuity\u2014consolidating a safer and more efficient work environment.<\/p>\n\n
