“This innovative device operates with simple voice commands to complete
construction layout with precision,” said Ray Kerwin, director of global
product planning. “In addition, the wearable display is capable of
taking pictures and videos to easily document progress and key
construction points-of-interest. Compared to conventional layout
methods, this new HUD speeds layout productivity by up to 80 percent.”
To help speed up construction workflows, the wearable assistant software
also allows immediate report generation while on the construction site.
“This new wearable device demonstrates Topcon leadership in delivering
advanced technology solutions that drive improved workflows and
increased efficiency. Construction is one of the largest industry’s in
the world, and this is an example of the increasing adoption of
technology to meet its expanding productivity demands,” said Kerwin.
