Case Study: Intersection Control

Page 2: 3D-P In Action Case study. Intersection control

• Busy intersection across haul road due to new construction

• Traffic signals in place but want to prioritize production vehicles

Customer Scenario

• First responder radio solution would require truck down time for installation & interfere with mining ops network

• Customer disabled traffic signals and manually controlled intersection:

• Two security guards at intersection 24/7• Haul truck drivers radio upon approach• Guards manually lower gates to halt crossroad traffic

• Is there a better way to control the intersection?

• Application deployed on each haul truck IEP determines if it is approaching the intersection based on GPS position

• When approaching, a notification is transmitted to IEP installed at traffic light using existing radio network

• IEP at traffic light sends a control signal to ensure haul truck receives a green light

Cost effective – no new HW required unlike first responder radio solution

Saved manpower – security guards can be redeployed elsewhere

Improved safety – no more manual control of haul road intersection

No truck down time – all software was deployed over-the-air

Benefits

Improved productivity – no truck stoppages to slow down productivity; reduced wear & tear

No interference – integrated into existing mining operations wireless network

Low cost, high gain – nearly $1.5M in annualized savings
