Industry trends

Rising demand for electric vehicles and renewable energy sources mandate that mines adopt modern technology to produce enough critical minerals. At the same time, mines need to improve productivity and unit economics despite facing challenges such as labor and skill shortages, net-zero emissions targets, social license requirements, and rising costs. Despite promises about “Mines of the Future” and “Autonomy 2.0,” the industry has not seen significant progress toward realizing those visions.

Applied Intuition’s approach

With expertise gained through successful production programs across the automotive, trucking, and defense industries, Applied Intuition provides vehicle intelligence solutions to develop, test, integrate, and operate automation technology for mining. These solutions increase productivity, improve safety and operator experience, and reduce total cost of ownership.
Advanced on-vehicle technologies
Enable better performance from staffed and unstaffed fleets and improve total cost of ownership by reducing the need for expensive networks.
Purpose-built AI- and ML-based autonomy modules
Can enable autonomous haulage fleets to navigate around obstacles safely and continuously, without depending on connectivity, ensuring that mines stay productive.
Safety management applications supported by development tools
Enable mines to understand operator-specific performance and holistic mine site safety incidents, allowing them to make data-driven decisions to improve safety.

Realizing the mine of the future

Vehicle OS

Integrate software into a consolidated set of electronic control units (ECUs) to reduce cost of electrical components.
Ensure delivery of reliable software updates over the lifespan of fleet vehicles.
Seamless connectivity across compute, vehicles, and off-board systems enables complex applications in areas such as electrification, optimization, and site operations.

Automated driving kits

Continue to operate in edge cases with dynamic path planning.
Combat labor shortages by operating with significantly less support staff.
Automate the process of keeping maps of the mine updated while moving it from 2D to 3D.

Developer tools

Analyze, triage, and understand operator-specific performance and holistic mine site safety incidents, allowing data-driven decisions to improve safety.

Benefits

Improve safety

Onboard Level 7-9 solutions enable operators to see their surroundings clearly. Offboard solutions focus on incident replay and aggregation of safety data to provide insights on operational and site changes.

Lower TCO

Onboard advanced technologies significantly reduce the requirements and costs associated with expensive networking and connectivity, as well as the labor needed to support back-office supervision and vehicle integrations.

Boost productivity

Staffed fleets can be converted to unstaffed fleets to operate more frequently and efficiently, and reduce system downtime. Dispatch vehicles intelligently to optimize usage and productivity.

“Unlike traditional vehicles that may pause operations when faced with unplanned conditions—leading to costly downtime—these next-generation intelligent vehicles are built to maintain momentum. With real-time decision-making, adaptive routing, and AI-powered path planning and map generation, they ensure continuous productivity and optimized performance across the site.”
