    Abstract: A system 10 for controlling operation of a vehicle 12 in a defined area 14 includes a perimeter 16 defining a boundary of the defined area 14. A user interface 18 is provided for at least one of controlling and monitoring movement of the vehicle 12 as it traverses the area 14 and monitoring the location of the vehicle 12 relative to the perimeter 16. The system 10 further includes a controller 26 to which the vehicle 12 is responsive, the vehicle 12 having a plurality of modes of operation, one of which is an autonomous mode and another of which is an operator controlled mode. The controller 26 is operative, when the vehicle 12 is operating in the autonomous mode and the vehicle comes within a predetermined range of the perimeter, to inhibit the vehicle 12 from crossing the perimeter 16 and, when the vehicle 12 is operating in the operator controlled mode or is converted from autonomous mode to operator controlled mode, to permit the vehicle 12 to cross the perimeter 16 under control of the operator.

    Abstract: A METHOD OF, AND A SYSTEM FOR, CONTROLLING A DRILLING OPERATION A system 10 for controlling a drilling operation in a mine by a drill rig 12 includes a sensor pack, located on the drill rig for sensing data relating to the drilling operation, and a receiver 16 for receiving the sensed data. A processor 18 is in communication with the receiver 16, the processor 18 processing the sensed data to estimate at least one geological property of interest of a zone 20 in which the drill rig 12 is active. The processor 18 is configured to operate as a decision engine 22 to determine automatically whether the drilling operation is able to be optimise by changing at least one drilling related parameter during the drilling operation based on the at least one geological property of interest. The decision engine 22 makes the determination based on changing at least one of two drilling related parameters. 60 C)C40 \34 32 j11Z966 fjg~.j 14 Fi 00

    Abstract: A system 30 for drilling to a position relative to a geological boundary in a geological formation includes a sensor pack 26 for sensing parameters associated with a drilling operation carried out in the geological formation by a drill 10. A data storage module 34 stores a geological model of the geological formation and data relating to the sensed parameters, the geological model including data relating to the geological boundary. A processor module 32 is configured to monitor the drilling operation using the data related to the sensed parameters and to locate the position of a drill bit of the drill 10 in the geological formation and its corresponding position within the geological model. The processor module 32 is further configured to generate an end point at a defined position relative to the geological boundary. A drill controller 24 communicates with the processor module 32, the drill controller 24 being configured to control operation of the drill 10 and to cause the drill 10 to cease drilling when the end point has been reached.

    Abstract: This disclosure relates to scheduling by a processor the supply a consumable liquid to a mobile machine, such as the supply of water to a blasthole drill. The processor receives from the one or more mobile machines status information relative to a machine cycle. The machine cycle comprises one or more first periods where supply of the consumable liquid is preferred. The processor then determines based on the status information the supply schedule to supply the liquid to the one or more machines during their respective one or more first periods. The supply schedule is determined such that the supply schedule reduces the likelihood that any of the one or more mobile machines has an insufficient amount of the consumable liquid available. This method reduces downtime of the mobile machines because liquid is supplied during the preferred periods while reducing the likelihood of running out of liquid.
