The ground had just failed. The robot went in first.
After a roof collapse in an operating iron-ore mine, the area had to be understood before production could resume. The usual way takes days and puts people under a roof that has already failed once.
What happened
A robot running Sarthi's mission stack entered the affected drift, mapped the rockfall zone in 3D, and captured the imagery the engineers needed to assess the failure, all before a single person stood under that roof.
The work was field research with the mine's cooperation, after a real event. Site imagery will be published here once the operator has cleared it.
What it proves
Post-event assessment is the hardest version of the inspection problem: unknown damage, no infrastructure, and production waiting on the answer. The mission worked there.
It is the direct ancestor of Sarthi's M3 post-event mission. We offer M3 because this run already happened in an operating mine.
If your mine has an event response plan, tell us where the first human entry sits in it. We will show what a robot-first assessment changes.
