RodRadar allows operators to see underground utilities - Equipment Journal
RodRadar has developed a technology platform that detects underground utility infrastructure in real time. The Live Dig Radar (LDR) system, integrated into an excavator bucket, allows operators to scan below ground for utilities. The system uses advanced algorithms to classify radar echo and determine utility location. AMI Attachments is RodRadar’s first bucket and attachment manufacturing partner. The LDR system has been integrated into designated AMI excavator buckets. The company’s key shareholders include angel investors and construction companies such as Brick & Mortar Ventures, Mayer Group, Dysruptek, and Holt Ventures.
