See moreA bunker robot travels around an iron-ore mining site in Australia to improve safety. Its compact size makes it ideal for use where human presence is risky, especially under the machinery that moves iron ore from the excavation area to the crusher. In the event of an adverse event, its sensors detect anomalies inside the mines using a thermal imaging camera that tracks temperature changes and a standard camera to provide the controller with a detailed and secure view of the inspected area. At the Rio Tinto site, operators remotely control BUNKER Pro while working alongside other autonomous robots, such as tracks, drills, and water carts, all contributing to a safer and more efficient mining operation.
