Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
For the
Autonomous Future Mine
Chris Green Ioniq Innovation Pty Ltd 2014
What is the Future Mine?
What is the Autonomous Mine?
What are we expecting?
UAV SWARMS!!
What is the Future Mine?
• Optimisation? • “Fundamental Innovation”? • Bigger? • Remote? • Rethink processes
What is the Autonomous Mine?
What is the Autonomous Mine?
• Works in an unstructured environment
• Does not require human guidance or remote control in any continuous way
• Is self learning
• Is capable of making decisions and major directives based on non-linear objectives
• It is a Complex System in evolution
Complexity, Uncertainty and Bayes
….and Decision Theory
So what are we moving towards?
What approach should we take..
…in moving towards Autonomous UAVs
• Bottom Up
• Multi-Agent Design
• Bayesian Machine Learning
• Decision Support systems
So what are we moving towards?
Decision Support
Multi-Agent Operators
Machine Learning
Challenges
UAV Swarms
Communications
Accurate Location Capability
Powerful Internal Computing Capability
Standalone takeoff and landing capability
