11 Jun Intuicom’s New Bluetooth Bridge Delivers Industry-Leading Connectivity and Performance
Las Vegas, NV – (June 11, 2018) – Intuicom, Incorporated, a premier supplier of wireless solutions to the survey, machine control and construction industries, announced today at HxGN LIVE 2018 availability of it’s newest Bluetooth Bridge™ . Fully compatible with Leica Geosystems newest Robotic Total Stations, the iCR70 and iCR80, the Bluetooth Bridge delivers best-in-class range and performance via long-range Bluetooth connectivity.
The Bluetooth Bridge is a rugged, compact, yet powerful communication solution that enables Autodesk® BIM 360 Layout connectivity to Leica’s complete line of Total Stations. In addition, the Bluetooth Bridge can enable connectivity to those Total Stations from a variety of controllers, including those running Leica’s iCON software.
In field studies, the Bluetooth Bridge outperformed similar solutions, especially in high radio frequency (RF) interference environments, like those encountered on large-scale construction projects. Leveraging the enhanced wireless communication of Intuicom’s Bluetooth Bridge, David Lutz, US Geomatics Sales Specialists – Leica Geosystems, noted that Leica users were able to overcome connectivity challenges they previously experienced with other radio devices by using the Bluetooth Bridge to augment their solution. “I was truly surprised at the range and performance the Bluetooth Bridge delivered on the project,” said
Lutz. “It performed flawlessly with obstacles and machinery in its way.”
“Our new Bluetooth Bridge was engineered specifically to overcome the communication limitations that WiFi presents Autodesk BIM 360 Layout users when they are on-site conducting field layouts and verifications,” says Tom Foley, president and CEO, Intuicom, Inc. “Users can now experience enhanced connectivity between Autodesk BIM 360 Layout and their Robotic Total Stations at distances of up to 500 meters, even in high RF interference environments, resulting in unmatched field performance and connectivity.”
