In Summary:
This Project presented us with a multitude of challenges previously not encountered & of which were difficult to overcome; such things as the steering control & transmission control. Some of the other difficulties were in finding spaces to house the various components in such a tight space. Because of this we had to design & manufacture many of the components on this project from scratch.
To our knowledge, dual control of a 4x4 passenger vehicle has never been achieved before. Similar vehicles have been converted to Remote Control but not with ‘Dual Control Capability’.
Initially we were engaged to commission 1 vehicle but due to the success of the project, we build a 2nd vehicle & to date now have 2 of these vehicles working successfully at this Mine Site in Ireland.
The Project was Delivered on time & to budget.
