Underground mining operations present critical safety hazards due to limited visibility and blind areas, which can lead to collisions between mobile machines and vehicles or persons, causing accidents and fatalities. This paper aims to survey the existing literature on anti-collision systems based on computer vision for pedestrian detection in underground mines, categorize them based on the types of sensors used, and evaluate their effectiveness in deep underground environments. A systematic review of the literature was conducted following the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines to identify relevant research work on anti-collision systems for underground mining. The selected studies were analyzed and categorized based on the types of sensors used and their advantages and limitations in deep underground environments. This study provides an overview of the anti-collision systems used in underground mining, including cameras and lidar sensors, and their effectiveness in detecting pedestrians in deep underground environments. Anti-collision systems based on computer vision are effective in reducing accidents and fatalities in underground mining operations. However, their performance is influenced by factors, such as lighting conditions, sensor placement, and sensor range. The findings of this study have significant implications for the mining industry and could help improve safety in underground mining operations. This review and analysis of existing anti-collision systems can guide mining companies in selecting the most suitable system for their specific needs, ultimately reducing the risk of accidents and fatalities.
