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.”

    Leica Geosystems is offering a new system that is said to help boost safety for personnel on construction sites. The innovative PA10 system utilises new technology to identify when personnel may be walking around a jobsite. The system then alerts machine operators to the presence as well as the location of construction personnel. At the same time, the system will warn any personnel walking around a site that construction machines are operating in the immediate vicinity.
