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.”

Vaisala has launched the compact Beam Weather Station – BWS500 – for weather and environmental monitoring by cities, road agencies and industrial zone authorities.

Beam Station is designed as a turnkey monitoring station that provides access to reliable information on air pollutants, solar radiation, flooding, snow depth, water level, visibility, road conditions, pavement temperature and current weather conditions.

It is now 10 years since Komatsu introduced its intelligent machine control technology intended to help customers achieve more work in less time and with higher quality.

The new Hybrid Positioning system from Topcon is said to perform faster in the field than stand-alone robotic systems and is more versatile than RTK-only solutions. The latest Hybrid Positioning technology combines GNSS positioning and optical robotic measurements on one rover pole.
