Leica Geosystems has developed a safety system for onsite use

A new package from Leica Geosystems is said to help boost safety for personnel on construction sites. The PA10 system is intended to highlight the location of construction personnel on working sites to machine operators, as well as alerting workers as to where equipment is in use.

“It’s a personal awareness system,” said Thomas Bonvalot of Leica Geosystems. “Everybody onsite will know where a machine is working and the machine operator will know there is a pedestrian.”
