7. Interactive Equipment Training Simulator
This innovative real-life training simulator concept
is most advantageous in imparting experience to
new equipment operators (Figure 10). Operators
undergoing this ingenious coaching programme,
experience real-life accurate simulations of actual
conditions at the work site. The simulations are
made possible via the installation of sensory
perception and motion feedback mechanisms
to reflect scenarios such as jobs carried out on
uneven terrains or even incorporating challenging
work conditions (Volvo Construction Equipment,
2015). This unique in-house training programme
is dynamic and the task scenarios created are
based on the extensive actual work experience of
very senior equipment operators. Benefits include
analysis of trainees’ performance in real time and
savings from potential equipment damage.

8. Smart Automatic Dust Suppression
Potential sources of industrial dust include
material transport, crushing, grinding and tipping
material. Respirable fine dust sizes less than 10
μ are of concern to the health of site personnel.
This practical smart automatic water spray system
setup (Figure 11) can optimise the water input
whilst also specially tailor the droplet size via the
spray nozzle outlet for any specific application. The
user-friendly computer software for optimum dust
control with water-saving features can effectively
treat an extensive industrial site using the fine
ultra-fine atomised mist setup which optimises the
usage of precious water and reduces the potential
formation of an occupational unsafe and muddy
work environment.
