Trimble has announced upcoming upgrade to their grade control machine control GCS900 family of products. It is going to be version 2.12 and it will include Trimble GradeMax™. According to the press release this new feature Trimble GradeMax™ will improve the performance and speed of dozers. Operatol will gain some extra features where he will be able to adjust certain settings based on the material which should improve the speed and accuracy of the product. Also Trimble has doubled the GNSS update rate.
Sounds exiting. Only downside is that we will have to wait a while until it will become available. Will keep my eye on it and will keep you posted.
