Primary capability

Edge Intelligence

Evaluation plan

Test a representative scope against agreed acceptance criteria.

Support communications and edge processing for autonomous and tele-remote operations while OEM safety and control systems remain authoritative.

01

Select the operational scope

One autonomous or tele-remote workflow, representative sensor stream, approved model, edge host, and supervisory-system consumer.

02

Verify the technical path

Have representatives from autonomy teams, mine operations, OEM or systems-integrator stakeholders, platform engineering, OT security review the architecture path and policy boundaries.

03

Review the decision evidence

Determine whether supporting communications and edge inference meet latency, continuity, interoperability, and governance requirements.

Acceptance criteria

Define success with observable evidence and a decision.

Use representative systems, named owners, and a controlled operational scenario.

01

The evaluation includes one representative autonomous-haulage or machine-control workflow, its approved service endpoints, and available transports.

02

Mine operations, autonomy, network, OT-security, and vendor owners confirm the required service relationships and safety boundaries.

03

The team records machine identity, admission state, latency, loss, route changes, service reachability, and policy events.

04

The results show whether the selected communications workflow meets the mining team's agreed operating criteria during a controlled path change.

Operational outcome

Support communications and edge processing for autonomous and tele-remote operations while OEM safety and control systems remain authoritative.

Evaluation scope

One autonomous or tele-remote workflow, representative sensor stream, approved model, edge host, and supervisory-system consumer.

Decision

Determine whether supporting communications and edge inference meet latency, continuity, interoperability, and governance requirements.
