Seguridad / Security
Collision Awareness Systems: Wabtec’s Collision Awareness solutions suite is a sophisticated and adaptable collision awareness and reporting system developed specifically for the mining industry. CAS provides 360-degree situational awareness of objects in proximity to a heavy vehicle during stationary, slow speed and high-speed operations in order to reduce the risk of vehicle to vehicle, vehicle to infrastructure, vehicle to personnel and vehicle to environment interactions:
1. All vehicles are fitted with a GPS receiver, vehicle-to-vehicle (V-V) radio link and vehicle display unit.
2. The system automatically detects obstacles within critical zones around a vehicle and notifies the driver with progressive audible alerts and radar style graphic alerts on the vehicle display unit.
3. Alarming is based on real-time predictive algorithms based on heading, speed, stopping distance, vehicle / object type and distance.
4. Alarm rules are displayed visually providing the driver with situational awareness information in order to avoid a high-risk interaction.
5. Personnel are fitted with a personnel protection tag that alarms when the person enters the programmed high-risk zone of a Heavy Vehicle. Both the Heavy vehicle operator and personnel on the ground receive audible & visual alerts. The Personnel Protection System uses Low-Frequency-Magnetics (LFM) technology to ensure reliable detection of mine workers on the ground in close proximity to Heavy Vehicles without blind spots.
6. Alarm rules are fully programmable to the mine site requirements
7. Optional high accuracy RF proximity units can be used to supplement GPS proximity detection for high integrity applications.
8. Up to four (4) optional ruggedized cameras can be installed on heavy mobile equipment as visual aids of high-risk blind spots. Cameras can be programmed to automatically switch to nominated camera views based on gearing or indicator arrows or GPS / RF zone of detection.
