17. A method for managing specific events, which comprises the steps of:
-
detecting at least one specific event that could disturb a movement of a guided vehicle; performing a remotely controlled reversible switching from a normal driving mode to a remote driving mode of the guided vehicle following a detection of the specific event; measuring in real-time and collecting of piloting data in the remote driving mode; communicating in real-time of the piloting data between a remote piloting module of the guided vehicle and a remote control station; processing in real-time the piloting data; and performing in real-time a manual and remote piloting of the guided vehicle in the remote driving mode, on a basis of the piloting data.

18. A remote piloting module for a guided vehicle and installable on board the guided vehicle, the guided vehicle having a normal piloting system for piloting the guided vehicle, the remote piloting module configured for cooperating with the normal piloting system of the guided vehicle, the remote piloting module comprising:
-
a switching system for switching a driving mode of the guided vehicle and being remotely controlled by a remote control station, for remotely switching from a normal driving mode to a remote driving mode, and vice versa; an on-board communication system for communicating between the guided vehicle and the remote control station, said on-board communication system exchanging piloting data in the remote driving mode with a communication system of the remote control station; an on-board system for processing the piloting data to enable a remote manual piloting of the guided vehicle in the remote driving mode; and remote piloting means for remotely piloting the guided vehicle, the guided vehicle being controlled manually via control means of the remote control station in the remote driving mode. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23)

24. A remote control station for use with a remote piloting module of a guided vehicle, the guided vehicle having a normal piloting system, the remote control station remotely controlling a piloting of the guided vehicle using the remote piloting module, the remote control station comprising:
-
a remote-control device of a switching system of the remote piloting module, the switching system being able to switch from a normal driving mode to a remote driving mode and vice versa, following a command issued from said remote-control device; a communication system for communicating between the guided vehicle and the remote control station, said communication system exchanging piloting data in the remote driving mode with an on-board communication system of the remote piloting module of said guided vehicle; a system for processing the piloting data of the guided vehicle that can process the piloting data; and a remote manual control means for controlling a remote piloting means of the remote piloting module of the guided vehicle in the remote driving mode. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26, 27)

28. A specific-event management system for remote piloting of a guided vehicle having a normal piloting system for piloting the guided vehicle, the specific-event management system comprising:
-
a remote control station having a communication system and a control means; a remote piloting module installed on board the guided vehicle, said remote piloting module configured for cooperating with the normal piloting system of the guided vehicle, said remote piloting module containing; a switching system for switching a driving mode of the guided vehicle and being remotely controlled by said remote control station, for remotely switching from a normal driving mode to a remote driving mode, and vice versa; an on-board communication system for communicating between the guided vehicle and said remote control station, said on-board communication system exchanging piloting data in the remote driving mode with said communication system of said remote control station; an on-board system for processing the piloting data to enable the remote manual piloting of the guided vehicle in the remote driving mode; remote piloting means for remotely piloting the guided vehicle, the guided vehicle being controlled manually via said control means of said remote control station in the remote driving mode; said remote control station remotely controlling a piloting of the guided vehicle using said remote piloting module, said remote control station containing; a remote-control device for communicating with said switching system of said remote piloting module, said switching system being able to switch from the normal driving mode to the remote driving mode and vice versa, following a command issued from said remote-control device; said communication system for communicating between the guided vehicle and said remote control station, said communication system exchanging the piloting data in the remote driving mode with said on-board communication system of said remote piloting module of the guided vehicle; an on-board piloting-data processing system for processing the piloting data of the guided vehicle; and said remote manual control means for controlling said remote piloting means of said remote piloting module of the guided vehicle in the remote driving mode. - View Dependent Claims (29, 30, 31, 32)
