The LoopX AI-powered Loading Awareness System is a groundbreaking solution that revolutionizes bucket monitoring for scooptram. Using a Vision AI model trained on mining video data, the system determines the bucket’s load status—whether fully loaded, partially loaded, or empty—and tracks the number of buckets moved. It seamlessly links these counts to tasks such as transferring material to ore passes, remucks, or dump trucks.
The system also monitors the entire mucking cycle—loading, transitioning, dumping, and returning—providing insights to identify delays, improve efficiency, and boost productivity. Video data captured by the system supports operator training and helps mining operators make smarter, data-driven decisions to reduce downtime.
A sensor node, combining an infrared camera and 3D LiDAR, is strategically mounted beside the scoop cabin. This setup improves LHD operator visibility and increases productivity in tough underground mining environments.
