Speaker: Dr. Ilhan Varol, Hidromek A.S.
Topic: "Construction Machines - Getting Smarter"
Location: Middle East Technical University, Ankara, Turkey
Abstract: 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, today's machines are quite complex and furnished with many sensors communicating with each other using complex algorithms to perform better with increased efficiency/productivity while providing the operator with greater comfort. In parallel to the aviation industry, construction machines are also adapting new technologies making the machines from "assisted" to "autonomous" mode in operation and functions. The presentation will explore yesterday's, today's and tomorrow's construction machines to exhibit how they have evolved.
