Overview of the global automated mine scanning machines market

Research analysis on the global automated mine scanning machines market identifies benefits such as the better accessibility to underground mining data as one of the major factors that will have a positive impact on the growth of the market. Automated mine scanning machines are equipped with a vision system and advanced sensor fusion technology. This advancement in technology makes the machines efficient to be incorporated in the underground mining operation. With the integration of Internet-of-Things, cloud computing, and big data, these machines are implemented beneath the land surface to capture the data precisely. Moreover, the accessibility of data transmission and communication between operators and mining labors is not possible through manual operations. However, with the implementation of advanced automation and machines, data capture and transmission have improved. The improvements have also enabled the underground mining data to be captured with fewer complications and high precision through the implementation of automated mine scanning machines. Furthermore, underground mining is a highly hazard-prone application for manual workers. The deployment of automated mine scanning machines for underground scanning ensures the safety of workers and efficient data transmission. Technavio’s market research analysts predict that this market will grow at a CAGR of around 15% by 2021.
