Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide systems and methods for generating a three-dimensional virtual track model. This track model may be used, for example, in collision prevention and mitigation systems and methods, such as those described herein, and in other collision prevention and mitigation systems and other mining systems using virtual track models. In some embodiments, the systems and methods described herein provide a simplified modeling process that enables quick, accurate modeling of tracks of a mining machine that can account for custom tracks that vary in size depending on the particular mining machine.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide systems and methods for preventing and mitigating collisions between components of an industrial machine. The industrial machine includes an electronic controller, having an electronic processor and a memory, that is configured to generate a virtual model of an exclusionary zone located on or near the industrial machine. The electronic controller is further configured to receive dipper position data indicative of a position of the dipper and determine a distance between the dipper the exclusionary zone based on the dipper position data. The electronic controller is further configured to set a motion command limit for a dipper motion based on the distance, the dipper motion being selected from a group of a swing motion, a crowd motion, and a hoist motion and control the dipper motion according to a dipper motion command limited by the motion command limit.
