Scalable indoor positioning system of production and processing
Proximity detection and positioning system provides personnel and vehicles positioning and allows to trac the objects to minimize the probability of incidents
RealTrac "Plant" - A security system for solving problems of ensuring industrial safety requirements at processing industry facilities, plants, factories and other industrial enterprises.
The RealTrac "Plant" solution allows real-time location (positioning) of workers and equipment on the territory of an industrial or processing enterprise, as well as the function of preventing collisions between equipment and personnel.
The RealTrac “Plant” includes the following safety and efficiency increasing products
Control of the location of workers on the territory of a quarry or section
The dispatcher can receive real-time data on the current location of all workers or mining equipment, as well as information about the path traveled by the controlled object for a given period.
Worker access control
Thanks to the creation of geofences with different access levels, the dispatcher always knows whether one or another worker is in the permitted or prohibited zone. The reporting and analytics system allows you to identify systematic violations of access levels and prevent possible incidents.
Control of working time, time spent in the geofence
The RealTrac system allows you to register the time of entry /exit of employees in a certain geofence. This allows you to control their presence in certain areas and in areas of work. And also notify the dispatcher or worker if necessary to leave the zone. At the same time, data on movements, time spent in various zones and events are stored on the server for up to 10 years.
Emergency notification of workers during drilling and blasting operations
The system allows real-time monitoring of the process of personnel withdrawal from the hazardous area where drilling and blasting operations are planned. The system also helps with evacuation: the time spent, the trajectories of workers during the evacuation announcement, and most importantly - determining the current location of workers who could not get to safe collection points in time.
Evacuation and detection of workers caught in an accident
The system allows you to monitor the evacuation process in real time: the time spent, the trajectories of the movement of workers during evacuation and, most importantly, determining the current location of workers who could not get to safe collection points in time.
Advantages
Benefits of personnel monitoring in an industrial enterprise:
Modular industrial safety system

RealTrac Collision Awareness
The product is designed to reduce the number of accidents associated with a collision of vehicles and machinery, as well as collisions of vehicles with workers in conditions of insufficient or poor visibility.
Tasks to be solved
The product solves problems in two directions of control:
Direction: Vehicle - vehicle (V2V)
Tasks
- Improving the safety of the movement of quarry transport in conditions of poor or insufficient visibility
- Reduction of costs associated with downtime and repair of quarry equipment as a result of a collision
Functions
- Fixing the fact of dangerous proximity of vehicles and mining equipment
- Notifying the driver/worker or operator about the possibility of a collision
Direction: Vehicle - personnel (V2P)
Tasks
- Helps to reduce the level of injuries associated with the impact of mining equipment on people
- Allows you to make safe maneuvers of quarry fleet with several people around it
Functions
- Fixing the fact of a dangerous incident related to hitting a worker
- Notification of the worker's presence in the danger zone for the vehicle operator and for the person in a same time
Advantages of preventing collisions between vehicles and with workers
What distinguishes the RealTrac Collision Prevention product from analogues:
360 degree control around the vehicle
Determining the distance and direction to another object with an accuracy of 0,2 meter
Three control zones with the ability to set them any size and configuration
Сontrol zones around the quarry equipment, adjustable depending on the dimensions of the equipment or the position of the working mechanism of any special fleet
Full autonomy of the system (Access to GPS and GSM signal is not required for operation)
Operating principle and components
Provides a situational understanding of the environment around the vehicle, identifying the presence of vehicles, people or objects inside previously defined zones. As soon as an object, vehicle or employee equipped with a collision awareness system tag approaches previously defined zones, the system issues a tangible, audible and visible warning.
The notification can be sent using:
Sound notification from the equipment, the inclusion of sirens or beeps
Vibration from a personal tag
Light notification from a personal tag
Flashing of the headlights of the equipment or the inclusion of other visual warning devices
The intensity of the alert can be adjusted depending on the control zone.
Equipment for workers
Personal tag (tracker) PROD TAG 720 or PROD TAG 210 - is issued to the worker and with its help the location relative to the vehicle with the installed antennas of the collision prevention system is determined. The tag is made in the form of a separate wearable device.
Equipment for vehicles
The display is installed in the driver's cab and serves for visual assessment of the situation around the vehicle, receiving alerts about a dangerous approach and monitoring the status of the system.
The control unit is installed on the transport and calculates the distance from the tag to the antennas and the direction of movement of the tag. Determines which of the control zones the tag is located in and, depending on this, displays information about objects in different zones on the driver's display and includes light-graphic or sound warning signals.
The antenna is installed in an amount of 4-6-8 pieces, depending on the size and configuration of mining equipment and is used to detect personal tags (trackers) or antennas installed on other equipment.
Autonomous operation mode
The system has built-in software and has absolute autonomy from other systems and the data transmission network.
When implementing a backbone channel, the system can transmit data on recorded dangerous approaches, collisions and other information to the RealTrac system server. This allows for the subsequent analysis of incidents and the construction of work report.
