A key focus of police and first responders ― especially in the US over the last two years ― has been around preparing for active assailant scenarios. These often tragic incidents are happening in schools, at special event venues, churches and synagogues, and government buildings, and they are on the news each and every day. …
Autonomous 3D LiDAR capture, processing and visualization company, Emesent, is realigning its global expansion plans with a focus on building and enabling quality distributor partnerships. The Australian company has recently undertaken a review of its global operational model, and is shifting investment into areas that will turbo-charge its growing base of regional resellers to benefit…
Watch this webinar to hear how Emesent is replacing the controller software ‘Air Marshal’ with a new app called Emesent Commander. Commander controls the execution of missions and simplifies workflows.
Emesent CTO and co-founder Dr Farid Kendoul will explore his vision for the role of autonomous robots in improving safety while minimizing operational down-time in post-blast mining environments.
Mobile mapping over longer distances or in some of the more challenging, featureless environments has been limited by LiDAR capabilities – until now.
Safety benefits to search and rescue scenarios provided by Emesent’s Hovermap drone autonomy have been recognized with Australia’s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation’s (CSIRO) highest science award, The Chair’s Medal for Science and Engineering Excellence. The honor was awarded to Team CSIRO Data61, composed of members from CSIRO’s Data61, Emesent, and Georgia Institute of…
Mine operations can be improved with LiDAR mapping in areas such as mine safety, the accuracy of volumetrics, compliance, and many more.
Underground mines can be extremely dangerous. The Nexa Vazante mine has one of the highest flows of water in Latin American mines. This makes mapping with mining drones difficult, which is a concern as this method is used to increase personnel safety. The high humidity from the water content can cause condensation in the LiDAR…
Emesent’s drone autonomy and mapping payload, Hovermap ST, has won the 2022 NIOSH Mine Safety and Health Technology Innovation Awards for the metal industry sector. Chosen by the selection committee in recognition of Hovermap ST’s contribution to advancing mine worker safety. A contribution that was proven in an example from Glencore Kidd mine, situated outside…
Welcome to our 101 series, where we take a beginner’s look at LiDAR, mobile mapping, digital twins, and all things Hovermap related. This article explores the pros and cons of popular digital survey technologies. A digital twin is an exact digital representation of a real-world space. Digital twins are used in various industries, from automotive…
