MOBILE POSITIONING

A significant advancement in tunnel profiling technology, the Robot Mapping System has the ability to measure surface roughness, roadbed quality and ground support quality. Controlled with a hand held wireless remote, the robot accurately maps tunnels and terrains, transferring the data collected into popular engineering CAD systems.

The information collected provides an accurate location through a specialized military grade inertial referencing system (IRS). The IRS component is linked to multiple laser scanners supplying high precision tunnel profiling while being driven forward. Laser profiling collects hundreds of data points per second linked to an accurate tunnel position through the IRS. All data is collected to onboard computer hard drives and transferred to the engineering office via memory storage systems or directly by wireless networks.

Robotic Mapping Applications include but are not limited to:
  • Tunnel Profiling
  • Forestry Mapping
  • Position Referencing
  • Quality Control
  • Mine Rescue
 Mobile Positioning

Robomap can be adapted to Penguin ASI specialized robots or tailored to your equipment for surveying, modeling and/or mapping of infrastructures, tunnels and buildings.  Combining sectional scans and altitude data in real time creates 3D maps for your referencing, a valuable service for mining, forestry, exploration and security industries. The application of RoboMap sees many advantages, most notably its increase in safety when working in complex environments as well as its 3D visualizations, providing highly detailed images for your referencing.
Hydrogen Fuel Cell LHD and Battery Powered LHD

These units are capable of autonomous and/or tele-autonomous operations when used in collaboration with a Penguin ASI Teleoperation Control Station.  Equipped with proprietary Can Open electronics capable of interfacing to common protocols and devices, these units are innovative and multi-functional.

There are two units developed, one battery powered capable of up to 8-12 hours of operation and another hydrogen fuel cell powered.  Both versions have a four degree of freedom robot arm able to dig and lift payloads.  These units also contain two wide angled, low latency cameras for data gathering and tele-autonomous control.
