Mastering an iron ore shiploader could sometimes be very uncomfortable, extremely hot and dusty. Especially when you are doing it sitting in a small cabin exposed to the direct sunlight in a very warm country.
Sensegraphics H3DAPI software is currently being used in an application for “mastering” an iron ore shiploader remotely. Replacing the actual operators cabin view with a 360 degree camera (the same Google is using for taking road pictures for Google maps) the operator could now be sitting in a more comfortable room, air conditioned, safely(?) mastering the shiploader looking at a 3 meter wide doome (sphere screen).
Below is a picture on a shiploader.
