DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dr. Ilhan Varol\, Hidromek A.S.\n\nTopic: "Constructio
 n Machines - Getting Smarter"\n\nLocation: Middle East Technical Universit
 y\, Ankara\, Turkey\n\nAbstract: Construction machines are employed to bui
 ld infrastructures\, dams\, roads and airports\, etc. They have been manuf
 actured since the start of the century and have shaped the civilization. U
 nlike earlier machines\, today's machines are quite complex and furnished 
 with many sensors communicating with each other using complex algorithms t
 o perform better with increased efficiency/productivity while providing th
 e operator with greater comfort. In parallel to the aviation industry\, co
 nstruction machines are also adapting new technologies making the machines
  from "assisted" to "autonomous" mode in operation and functions. The pres
 entation will explore yesterday's\, today's and tomorrow's construction ma
 chines to exhibit how they have evolved.\n\nBio: Dr. Ilhan Varol has been 
 with Hidromek for the last 11 years. He has served as Engineering Manager 
 at the Motor Grader Division and Backhoe Loader Division at Hidromek. Earl
 ier\, he has worked at Caterpillar\, USA in various engineering and manage

 &nbsp\;Construction machines are employed to build infrastructures\, dams\
 , roads and airports\, etc. They have been manufactured since the start of
  the century and have shaped the civilization. Unlike earlier machines\, t
 oday's machines are quite complex and furnished with many sensors communic
 ating with each other using complex algorithms to perform better with incr
 eased efficiency/productivity while providing the operator with greater co
 mfort. In parallel to the aviation industry\, construction machines are al
 so adapting new technologies making the machines from "assisted" to "auton
 omous" mode in operation and functions. The presentation will explore yest
 erday's\, today's and tomorrow's construction machines to exhibit how they
  have evolved.</p>\n<p>Bio: Dr. Ilhan Varol has been with Hidromek for the
