Why Topcon

July 13, 2015 – THE WORLD HAS A LONG 'TO DO' LIST

With 9 billion people expected on the planet by 2030, there's a lot of work to be done. We'll need more housing, roads and utilities, not to mention more food for the extra tables. Topcon is driven to help you meet these demands with innovative solutions that help you work smarter and faster to create sustainable infrastructure and agriculture.

 

YOUR TOPCON TEAM

Topcon's mission is simple - to help grow your business. That’s the Topcon vision and why more than 2,000 employees worldwide are dedicated to creating the technologies and bringing you the solutions to drive your success.

From Topcon's scientists in our state-of-the-art research labs to Topcon's solutions developers dedicated to understanding the challenges you face, we're focused on helping your business grow in efficiency and strength.

 

IMPOSSIBLE? MAYBE BEFORE TOPCON

Topcon is dedicated to finding new ways to enable breakthroughs in productivity. We create and embrace disruptive technologies in order to keep your business on a steady path to future growth.

 

Fence Antenna

GNSS signals often reflect or fracture as they strike buildings, trees or other nearby objects. This results in confused signals called multipath errors. Topcon patented Fence Antenna technology, found in all our mobile GNSS antennas, to filter out this multipath error, resulting in  high accuracy positioning even in the difficult conditions.

Through the Lens Imaging

Topcon pioneered the integration of imaging into traditional total stations over a decade ago, so it’s no surprise to now find it  in many of our instruments and sensors, allowing users to not only measure, but to actually capture reality. With Topcon total stations, controllers, scanners or mobile mapping — what you see IS what you get.

Millimeter GPS

Topcon has combined the productivity of GNSS positioning with its unique zone laser transmitter to create a versatile, high-precision system that can control multiple machines at once. Millimeter GPS uses the laser-generated data to tighten vertical accuracy to a few millimeters — ideal for tight tolerance work such as highway construction and paving.

Universal Tracking

The patented Universal Tracking Channels from Topcon are the industry’s only truly scalable technology that tracks any of the available GNSS signal on any available channel. Other technology requires each channel to be tuned to a single frequency, greatly limiting your ability to use every reliable signal. Topcon Universal Tracking ensures the best accuracy no matter where you’re working.

Matrix Detection

Speed and accuracy are the two maxims for any measurement system. Topcon robotic total stations employ Matrix Detection, to automatically locate all prisms within a specified area, eliminating any need for manual guidance, no matter how tight the prism array.

Inertial Sensing

The fusion of GNSS positioning with inertial measurement technology was a breakthrough in 3-D machine control. Capable of measuring very fine movement, as well as pitch, roll and yaw, inertial sensing uses predictive algorithms to generate high-accuracy control to increase grading speed and precision.
