Carryback Scanner

Stop losing tonnes to material left in haul truck boxes.

The Problem

Every haul truck that leaves the dump with material still in the box is lost production. But carryback is hard to see, harder to measure, and almost impossible to track at scale.

The reality today:

  • Visual inspection is inconsistent and subjective
  • Operators can't see inside the box from the cab
  • No data means no visibility into the scope of the problem
  • Tonnes lost add up silently over shifts, weeks, months

Our Solution

The Carryback Scanner uses LiDAR to automatically detect and quantify material remaining in haul truck boxes after dumping.

Real-Time Detection

LiDAR scans each truck as it passes, detecting carryback automatically—no operator intervention required.

Tonnage Quantification

Not just detection—actual volume and tonnage calculations so you know exactly how much you're losing.

Alerts & Reporting

Configurable thresholds trigger alerts. Historical data shows trends across your fleet.

How It Works

1
Scan

LiDAR sensor captures point cloud of truck box as it passes

2
Detect

Algorithms identify and segment any material remaining in box

3
Measure

Volume calculated and converted to tonnage based on material density

4
Report

Data logged, alerts triggered if thresholds exceeded


Current Status

In Pilot — The Carryback Scanner is currently deployed and infield testing. Core detection and quantification capabilities are working; we're refining integration and reporting features. We've processed over 12,000 truck box scans at the pilot deployment.

Interested in a pilot deployment? We're looking for operations partners to test and refine the system in real-world conditions.
