This paper describes the development of a tele-robotic rock breaker deployed at a mine over 1000kms from the remote operations centre. This distance introduces a number of technical and cognitive challenges to the design of the system, which have been addressed with the development of shared autonomy in the control system and a mixed reality user interface. A number of trials were conducted, culminating in a production field trial, which demonstrated that the system is safe, productive (sometimes faster) and integrates seamlessly with mine operations.
