THE BIGGER THE BETTER – and you can’t find any bigger than BAUMA.
34th Edition of the World’s Leading Trade Fair for Construction Machinery, Building Material Machines, Mining Machines, Construction Vehicles and Construction Equipment | April 7-13, 2025, Trade Fair Center Messe München, Germany
TWO SENIOR GIMSTERS ARE HEADING TO MUNICH
Two big machine fans, our co-founder and CTO Dr. Jose Luis Peralta and our co-founder and Sales Director Dr. Jussi Suomela will travel to BAUMA in Munich and will be available on April 7th and 8th. Their focus will be on promoting GIM Robotics capabilities on those notorious corner cases, where supportive infrastructure is not available, GNSS signals are lying to us and Mother Nature is throwing some curveballs in the form of terrible weather conditions. Book a meeting with them.
THE CHALLENGES ARE WIDELY KNOWN
When machines are big and expensive and tolerances are small, like in many construction and mining related activities, you better be sure to know where your machine is and how the machine’s tool system, whatever that might be, affects the environment. There are some well-known ways to accomplish both demands, but most of them are somehow dependent on supportive infrastructure, either for the actual localisation (e.g., reflectors, beacons, or prisms) or for example for detecting the changes in the operational environment e.g., when digging the foundations for a road with a well-placed and expensive 3D LiDAR. Those solutions can provide the needed accuracy, but they cost a lot, they are rigid by nature and not so easily scalable. Additionally, the well-known challenges inherently related to so common open field solutions relying on RTK-GNSS services have become even more serious, thanks to clear increase in the number of hostile actions from well-known sources.
OUR SOLUTION
GIM Robotics has taken a different approach; one where the use of even a single external supportive element is to be avoided, and the solutions should be based on sensors, algorithms and software available onboard the machine or fleet of machines. As expected, the scalability is not an issue, the cost is low, and the performance is top-grade. Please check out our Mining, Construction and Earth Moving industry page for our current solutions.
AVAILABLE REFERENCES
Most of our projects in this field are unfortunately not public, but if you visit our Public references page you should have a clue why we are at BAUMA. As a side note, we are very happy to inform, that we will soon add one or maybe even two clients from this community to that page. More info to follow. Luckily, we have been actively participating recently in several national public funding projects in this field. Additionally, we have a related ongoing Eurostars/Eureka project everLOC with our friends from xtonomy.
BOOK A MEETING AT BAUMA
If you want to hear more, look for those fast-moving GIMsters at the fair, or even better send a direct message to José or Jussi and book a meeting with them as soon as possible. We are pretty sure that they will present our key products: real-time 3D positioning solution stack (PAIKKA), web-based interface for creating and manipulating geometric 3D maps (KARTTA), and Obstacle Detection and Tracking Software (TARKKA) Built to Excel in Outdoor Environments. Most probably they will also introduce our proven web-based tool (MITTA) for calibration 3D sensors as the foundation for getting everything else up and running flawlessly. They might have some unpublished videos and slide decks to reveal some of our trade secrets – only for you.
PLAN B
If you are unable to have a date with our dynamic duo at BAUMA, contact us directly. Let’s see how we can help you to turn your cool looking machine into a real smart showstopper at the next BAUMA.
