Autonomous Solutions, Inc (ASI) and Liebherr Mining Equipment Newport News Co. (Liebherr) Announce Collaboration towards Production of Autonomous Ready Haul Trucks
October 25, 2017— Autonomous Solutions, Inc. (ASI) and Liebherr Mining Equipment Newport News Co. (Liebherr) are pleased to announce that Liebherrs new autonomous ready haul trucks will be compatible with ASIs autonomous command and control platform; MOBIUS. Liebherr's vision of an autonomous haul truck includes an open interface that enables the truck to integrate to ASIs Mobius platform. Liebherrs autonomous vehicles can be controlled under an OEM agnostic command system for autonomous vehicles, providing maximum flexibility for their customers.
Liebherr has integrated with the Mobius protocols for its vehicle control interface, rather than establishing a proprietary command and control platform on its own. This move to an open platform will provide much needed flexibility to their customers when integrating different autonomous vehicle types throughout a mine site.
