The "High-Precision Systems" holding (part of Rostec) and the "R.O.S.ASPHALT" association are developing an automated road roller for road works. Tests of the experimental model will begin in 2025, according to the holding's press service.
The special equipment was created on the basis of a vibratory double-drum roller manufactured by "Raskat". The main "know-how" of the road machine is the "Prometheus" hardware and software complex, developed by specialists from VNII "Signal".
The solution allows automating almost any ground transport - from military equipment to construction machines.
The "Prometheus" hardware and software complex includes:
- cameras
- communication tools
- information processing units
- control panel with a joystick
The operator can control the roller with a joystick or switch to autonomous mode.
The General Director of VNII "Signal", Vladimir Pimenov, called the creation of "Prometheus" an important step in the automation of the road construction industry. With its help, special equipment will be able to work continuously, which will reduce the time for road construction and repair.
