AI advancements extend value of Trimble
construction technology and expertise to
drive efficiencies in the field and the office
LAS
VEGAS, Nov. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ --
Trimble® (Nasdaq: TRMB) today gave attendees of its
annual user conference, Trimble Dimensions, an inside look at the
company's latest initiatives to incorporate artificial intelligence
(AI) into construction workflows to help automate processes,
improve decision making and enhance productivity. With an extensive
hardware and software portfolio, vast domain-specific datasets and
deep industry expertise, Trimble is driving meaningful and
transformative innovation with AI.
Across its suite of connected construction solutions, Trimble
showcased real-world applications of AI that are designed to
improve customer workflows, helping to create more efficient,
cost-effective and safer construction projects.
SketchUp® Diffusion [Labs], a generative
AI-powered tool available as part of the SketchUp Labs Program,
allows architects and designers to create rendered images that
inspire the creative process, communicate their vision and build
alignment faster. Diffusion generates visualizations in seconds
based on a natural language text prompt or a preset style to
describe how the designer would like their 3D model and the
surrounding environment rendered.
The SketchUp Labs Program is a public beta program that
enables SketchUp subscribers to try new innovative features and
provide feedback. To access the features in Labs, you must be a
SketchUp subscriber. To purchase, visit the SketchUp
website or the Apple App
Store.
ProjectSight®, Trimble's project management
software for construction contractors, offers a new AI-driven
capability that brings automation to project management workflows,
improving efficiency and accuracy. This frees up construction
professionals to spend more time on critical tasks. The new drawing
import feature in ProjectSight uses AI to read and extract critical
drawing information for improved project visualization.
Contractors can now access and install the software themselves
by creating an account on the ProjectSight website.
Trimble LiveCount uses new AI functionality to
automatically detect and count thousands of symbols on construction
drawings, saving contractors from hours of manual, repetitive and
time-consuming tasks during takeoff. The ability to automatically
detect and count different types of receptacles and switches — the
most common electrical items on blueprints — helps electrical
contractors create estimates faster, easier and more
accurately.
Trimble LiveCount AI functionality is available exclusively in
the Trimble Accubid® Anywhere (named user) and
Hosted Accubid Classic Estimating Essentials subscriptions.

In the field, Trimble is incorporating AI into the
processing of reality capture data, helping improve decision-making
by assisting and automating point cloud segmentation,
classification and feature extraction. AI built into
Trimble Business Center, a field-to-finish survey CAD
software, expedites tedious, repetitive activities such as point
cloud classification and feature extraction. From managing assets
and inspecting roads, to monitoring stockpile volumes at
construction sites, the combination of hardware and AI for
automated feature extraction rapidly collects high-quality data,
accelerates workflows and provides access to the information needed
to make knowledgeable decisions.
"Trimble has a long history of helping customers capture, share
and use construction data for more productive, collaborative and
profitable projects," said Aviad
Almagor, vice president of technology and innovation at
Trimble. "Our goal is to help customers do more with less, tackle
key industry challenges and thrive in an increasingly complex
industry. By incorporating AI into customer workflows, we're
enhancing decision making and creativity, while also automating
repetitive tasks to unlock new levels of efficiency."
