Pushing the boundaries of autonomy: Far afield to deep underground

No matter your environment, we can enable reliable autonomy there. This webinar explores some of the most challenging operational environments in agriculture, mining and industrial off-road systems. Watch our webinar featuring engineering and technical leaders sharing practical insights into sensor fusion, positioning trade-offs and the evolution of autonomous systems in mission-critical environments where safety, productivity and real-time decision making are key.

You will learn about how autonomy is impacting these vital industries and applications:

Precision agriculture
Learn how perception and positioning technologies, including GNSS+INS, LiDAR, RADAR and vision, help increase machine uptime, reduce operator risk and maintain efficiency in the dynamic and often unpredictable terrain of large-scale farms.

Underground mining
Understand the trade-offs between positioning technologies like ultra-wideband (UWB), simultaneous localisation and mapping (SLAM), inertial and vision, and the critical role of combined systems in enabling safe, automated and productive underground fleet coordination.

Off-road autonomy
Explore how core sensors—inertial measurement units (IMUs), cameras, LiDAR, RADAR, GNSS, and vehicle odometry—combine to deliver autonomy in industrial environments. Gain a deeper understanding of environmental vs. positional awareness and calibration challenges.
