PROGRESS THROUGH AUTONOMY

360° Teleoperation of Machinery and Facilities

Retrofittable 360-degree teleoperation system for remotely controlling and monitoring industrial applications from a safe distance using telepresence. Make your existing fleet ready for networked, semi-autonomous operating machines with our tailor-made solution.

The Challenge

In industries like heavy machinery or forestry, staff often work in inhospitable or hazardous locations with a high risk of accidents and serious injuries. Not only do these adverse working conditions result in a great labor shortage, but non-operational downtimes significantly diminish the utilization of skilled personnel and machinery. Many companies have already recognized the potential of autonomous technology as an answer to these challenges. However, However, they soon discover that path to developing and implementing such solutions is not that simple.

The Solution

Mission Embedded’s 360-degree teleoperation system was specifically designed for use in safety-critical, industrial environments. It transforms any fleet into semi-autonomous machines that can be monitored and controlled safely and conveniently from a distance. The system includes state-of-the-art hardware and software components and can be flexibly configured according to your requirements. It features an innovative 360 camera system and an intuitively operable operator position that can be managed via monitors or a 3D virtual reality headset. Both wireless and wired networks can be used to operate the system.

Your Advantage

Operating heavy machinery safely and comfortably from a remote location requires accurate and realistic visualisation of the working environment – in real time. Powered by innovative 360 camera technology, Mission Embedded’s teleoperation solution offers an unrestricted peripheral view of the working environment. Using optional 3D virtual reality technology, the operator gets an even more realistic and immersive impression of the working environment. The system ensures first-class connectivity and secure and reliable operation in accordance with ISO 13849 Safety Standard Performance Level C.

How your company can benefit from our solution

Enhanced Working Conditions

Whether on site or remote, the virtual command centre allows your staff to conveniently and safely operate and monitor machines from a protected area.

Higher Productivity

Because one operator can remotely control two or more heavy machines, your fleet can accomplish more work with the same number of employees.

Improved Cost Efficiency

To develop your customised solution, we use proven base technologies from Mission Embedded that speed up the implementation and save costs.

Easy System Integration

Whether as a product integration or retrofit kit, our retrofittable system tailored to your specific needs transforms your applications into monitored, semi-autonomous machines.

Customized to Your Needs

Our scalable, cloud-based solution can be tailored to your specific needs, allowing you to efficiently monitor and control your entire fleet.

One-Stop Shop Solution

Our solution includes everything you need to transform your fleet for monitored, semi-autonomous operation.

Convenient Control from a Safe Distance

Mission Embedded’s innovative 360-degree teleoperation system visualizes the real environment by means of high-resolution live images produced by a 360 camera and front stereo camera – as if you were sitting in the cockpit of a machine. The system can be operated either via monitors or a 3D virtual reality headset for an enhanced immersive environment perception – including useful additional information. The user can comfortably operate the machine in a 360-degree panoramic view from a protected area without being exposed to weather conditions such as rain, snow or heat. This also reduces the risk of accidents, as the operator does not need to change position as often. Additional AI-assisted data can complement and greatly enhance the usual information available during operation. Seeing is believing: see for yourself how easy, convenient and intuitive it is to use our teleoperation system for your fleet.

Superior Connectivity

Operating heavy machinery in real time from a remote location requires an extremely reliable data connection. Mission Embedded’s 360-degree teleoperation system reliably transmits live video and control signals, allowing you to remotely operate your autonomous vehicle fleets with confidence. The system uses cellular bonding technology to transmit video data across multiple mobile carriers simultaneously. This ensures that the connection is highly stable and video streaming always works, even in the most challenging situations. Further major benefits of the system are its extremely low latency and secure and dependable functionality according to the ISO 13849 Safety Performance Level C security standard.

Efficient Fleet Management

Mission Embedded’s smart fleet management system is a great complement to our 360-degree teleoperation solution and helps you to efficiently manage your entire fleet 24/7. It uses both cloud-based and on-premises technologies, allowing you to monitor and manage entire fleets of autonomous, remote-controlled vehicles as well as manned vehicles. Location planning, vehicle insights, fleet disposition, real-time progress monitoring and task completion tracking: all this information is available to you based on your requirements, making the management of your fleet much easier.
