Digiflec

Earlier this year, Digiflec had the pleasure of meeting with with Alan Hutchison from the Tay Bridge operations team to discuss our work together. 🌉 The highlights from this were: ✅ - Enhanced asset targeting: Improved precision in monitoring and maintaining the Tay Road Bridge - targeting resources exactly where they need to go. 👪 - Future applications in safety and responsiveness: Helping to support their dedicated staff to keep the public safe. 🚚 - Increased understanding of usage: Valuable insights into how the bridge is used, helping to optimise operations. Throughout this project, Digiflec remained responsive and proactive, delivering results that make a difference. We're proud to have supported the Tay Bridge team and look forward to more impactful projects! The full chat is available on our YouTube channel - https://lnkd.in/eTVi94kE

👀 Ever wondered what powers the precision of LiDAR sensors? Let’s take a look *inside* the tech that’s revolutionising mapping, object detection, and autonomous navigation. This image reveals the intricate mechanism of a LiDAR sensor: 🔸 Laser Source: Emits laser beams that measure distances by reflecting off objects. 🔸 Tilting Mirror: Redirects the beam, enabling wide field-of-view scanning. 🔸 Optical Rotary Encoders: Provide precise angle tracking for accurate mapping. 🔸 Servo Motor: Powers the mirror’s rotation, ensuring smooth, continuous scanning. 🔸 Receiver: Detects reflected beams and calculates distance through time-of-flight data. Put them all together, and they result in a detailed 3D map of the surroundings – accurate, efficient, and indispensable for industries from autonomous vehicles to geospatial mapping. The Digiflec team is proud to be the UK’s leading distributor of cutting-edge LiDAR sensors. Whether you're building smarter cities, safer vehicles, or innovative robotics, our sensors are at the heart of your success. Want to see what LiDAR can do for your project?

It’s Road Safety Week. 🚗🦺 Every day, five people lose their lives on UK roads, and 80 others are injured. Safer cities mean safer communities. Everyone has a role to play in road safety. We are committed to collaborating with local authorities and partners to improve road safety by creating resilient city infrastructure. This involves road maintenance, smart cities, ITS, impact analysis, transport planning, and more. We’ve supported projects like the Tay Road Bridge and Stirling Council through traffic monitoring solutions that help to understand and manage risks. You can read more about how we’re helping to enhance road, pedestrian, and cyclist safety here: https://lnkd.in/e8jPGGAu. We believe technology can make cities smarter and safer by showing how spaces are truly used. Our LiDAR-based solutions are GDPR-compliant, highly accurate, and designed to help identify and manage risks. If your organisation is interested in collaborating on smarter, safer spaces, let’s talk: enquiries@digiflec.com. #RoadSafetyWeek Brake, the road safety charity

Have you seen WALL-E? 🤖 We have, and we wanted to talk about it 🌌 Check out our latest blog! A film about a little robot, 800 years in the future, working autonomously to solve the world’s problems… could LiDAR have helped him? From navigating a post-apocalyptic world, to dodging obstacles, and surviving extreme conditions, how do you think being fitted with a LiDAR sensor would’ve improved operations 🤔? Did you notice the Autonomous Vehicles that operate all throughout the film? 🏎️ In this blog post we have a look at how WALL-E’s tech isn’t all that far off, and how LiDAR could’ve been used to help make things better! Check out the full post here! https://lnkd.in/ewDRdzSb
