SIMCON: System of Intelligent Connected Machines for Construction
Status:
Start date:
End date:
The project aims to improve efficiency and increase production capacity in large construction and infrastructure projects, combined with an enhanced level of automation, improved safety, and a more sustainable production. The goal is to reduce climate impact and minimize work-related injuries.
The project has the target to advance the industry by:
- Facilitating interaction between autonomous and electrified machines
- Reducing incidents and accidents by integrating safety mechanisms into machines and systems
- Providing a reliable CO2 report for an entire project from production to completion
- Enhancing information exchange between different systems and making communication between systems more robust and efficient
- Digitizing more processes
