COLLISION AVOIDANCE & TRACKING
MISSING MINER SOLUTION (MMS)

MISSING MINER SOLUTION

The Missing Miner Solution consists the Missing Miner tag and the Wearable Proximity Device. The M3SH Missing Miner Tag is a lightweight, long-life wearable device for personnel visibility, emergency alerts, and rescue response in open-pit and underground mines, and surface operations. Unlike systems that depend on Wi‑Fi, LTE, cap lamps, or collision-avoidance infrastructure, it operates as part of a self‑forming mesh network that continues functioning when other systems fail.

WEARABLE TAG: UNDERGROUND

Missing Miner Tag

The M3SH Missing Miner Underground Tag is a lightweight, long-life wearable device for emergency rescue scenarios in underground mines. Unlike systems that depend on Wi-Fi, LTE, cap lamps or collision avoidance infrastructure, the tag operates independently, so it keeps working when other systems fail.

  • Missing miner response for underground mines
  • Underground evacuation support
  • Emergency rescue scenarios
  • Worker panic alerts
  • Post-incident location assistance
  • Personnel status awareness in complex underground workings

    RELIABLE

    • Emergency-focused, not dependent on another operational system
    • Suitable for low-resolution “breadcrumb” style tracking or higher-resolution operational visibility, depending on the mine’s required architecture
    • Independent self-forming, self-healing mesh communication
    • Long operational life with reserve capacity
    • Battery life: 12 Months operational + 6 Months reserve capacity
