Our surround sensing systems make construction machinery safer and more efficient. With our combination of software and sensors, we can create higher-quality driver assistance functions.
To optimize work processes, the construction industry already makes use of different sensor technologies, for example, to detect obstacles and warn operating personnel of potential collisions or overhead power lines. Regardless of whether ultrasonic sensors, radar, or cameras are the best technology for your requirements: we can consult you on the ideal and most cost-effective solution for your individual application. We will support you on the path to series production with our in-depth technical expertise and vast experience of project implementation.
Our core competence is the application-specific use of sensors for your machinery.
At your request, we can also advise and support you in the following areas:
Collision avoidance on construction sites: thanks to the variable configuration of the ultrasonic sensors, different applications can be implemented to reduce the risk of accidents.
Our surround sensing systems enhance the safety and efficiency of construction machinery and serve as the basis for automated work functions. With our combination of software and sensors, we can create higher-quality automation functions.
For partially or fully automated travel and work processes, the construction industry already makes use of different sensor technologies. They support machines in completing the processes with the desired quality and responding to accident risks in the correct manner. In close cooperation with the division for highly automated driving and the Group research department of Bosch, we provide you with the latest technologies along with in-depth software expertise for your automation applications based on radar, ultrasonic, and camera sensors. Along with our hardware expertise, we can call upon decades of experience when it comes to implementing even the most complex automation projects.
We use our sensors and software modules in a targeted manner to implement your specific automation task. With our combination of software and sensors, we can create higher-quality automation functions.
