April 10, 2025 Read time: 1 min

Trimble has demonstrated its revolutionary autonomous machine technology.

The US software, hardware and services technology company showed off the tech with a driverless Kobelco SK 210 excavator being overseen by the operator of a Bomag BW213 BVC compactor.

Martin Wagener, Trimble regional sales manager DACH, said the system is suitable for a number of industries including roadbuilding and construction.

He added that the technology for autonomous machines is ready to be used, but the legal situation is currently unclear in terms of whether someone still needs to be present in the cab of the machine.
