Abstract

Shearer works in the abominable condition, remote monitoring for the shearer could reduce fatalness of the mining workers. In order to reappear shearer’s working status and control it, the shearer’s virtual prototype was built by using virtual reality technology, which makes the mining workers feel the shearer’s working condition in the remote distance. Real-time driving problem of the shearer’s virtual prototype is required to solve for the sake of realizing action consistency between the virtual prototype in the remote monitoring platform and the real shearer, OPC technology was applied to solve the inconsistent problem of the communication interface between the shearer’s virtual reality platform and S7-300 PLC in the shearer, and the data interaction between virtual reality platform and S7-300 PLC was realized by use of C# programming. The experiment result shows that shearer’s virtual reality platform is able to acquire the immediate data from S7-300 PLC in the shearer by OPC technology, which assures the reliability of the shearer’s remote monitoring system.
