ENR: Sensor Technology Brings Situational Awareness to Jobsites

Engineering News-Record’s Jeff Rubenstone featured Spot-r by Triax in their Q2 Tech Update on connecting the challenging construction jobsite. Read highlights below and the full article here.

“Now that we’re collecting data on a larger scale, we’re starting to see new ways to improve worker safety,” says Chad Hollingsworth, Triax co-founder and president. “There’s been excitement among workers about using the alert to point out hazards on the site.”
