Why 3D imaging for fragmentation assessment?
Automated high resolution 3D imaging and advanced algorithms Overcomes limitations of 2D imaging Avoids particle delineation errors due to color variation in the rocks Directly measure 3D dimension of the material therefore no scaling objects or
perspecive distortion errors Detect overlapped particles preventing error from mis-sizing as smaller particles Detect areas-of-fines preventing error from mis-sizing as large boulders These are opposing errors As a result can provides a stable measurement suitable for closed loop automatic
control

This Paper : Outcome 3D data is highly smoothed and does not show sharp rock edges Small particles down to approx 60mm detected 3GSM applied a custom up-sampling to the raw data to produce the
desired high density 3D data set. But this had the side effect of smoothing the data, removing small particles, degrading edges and negatively affecting all of the analysis algorithms
LHD data most affected as it was also smoothed from motion blur Can detect areas-of-fines, and overlapped, non-overlapped rocks but
more errors

Comments The size curves attempt to capture the reality of the visible rocks on the pile surface,
and are not be representative of the sieving result. Size curves trend in the right direction given the observed size of the material Size curves are very different between the cave front, the LHD bucket, and the
sieving results, which is expected as the measured material is different in all three cases
The stereo 3D data was overly smoothed which had significant negative effects on fragmentation measurement algorithms
Stereo 3D data is not ideal for measuring a fast moving scene (such as LHD buckets in motion) as the data becomes more smoothed and less sharp
Lessons learned for successful collaboration with remote partners

Future Build an automated online roof mounted system based on the 2009 prototype
(cheap industrial laser scanners) to measure LHD bucket loads, all day, every day. These data sets contain approx 50,000 points from an LMS400 scanner, compared to
the ShapeMetrix3D data sets with 2 million points

Final Comments on Stereo 3D Stereo 3D depends heavily on the reconstructions algorithms reconstruction time : seconds or minutes, accuracy vs speed trade-off
Good for volume measurement Good for measuring high walls and relatively flat surfaces Not as good for fragmentation measurement 3D can be overly smooth Has areas of missing data both at rock edges and on rock surfaces
complicating delineation Not necessarily suitable for fast moving scenes
