Aebi Schmidt ｜Driver Assistance System｜Airfield Pilot

When recording routes the geo-events can either be set manually via the display or automatically via the control panel of the jet sweeper. While recording, the system also registers the geo-events (activities of plough, brush and blower). Subsequently the routes are synchronised via the cloud and can be replayed at any time or location. If an airport does not have a map available the driver starts by recording its outlines first.

The web editor allows recorded routes to be corrected or divided into segments, which can then be assigned. In addition the web editor provides a real-time overview of all active machines. 

When driving with the Driver Assistance System the predicted route incl. its geoevents is shown on the screen. The geoevents indicate the correct operation mode of the machine and, if the driver leaves the path, red arrows show how to return to the correct path. When operating with two or more machines in a fleet, drivers can also benefit from dynamic route adjustment. This means the system reports any deviation from a defined route or operation of vehicles in front, enabling the following ones to adjust their operation plan and make sure there is no gap in clearing coverage. 

It’s not about track and trace anymore; it’s about doing the right job at the right time. With the Aebi Schmidt Driver Assistance System, the winter operation manager always has an overview of the position and activity of individual vehicles. Drivers benefit from real-time advice and information on both driving behaviour and machine positions. As a result, the effort of coordination is largely eliminated and safety is increased.
