VIA TECHNOLOGIES TO DEBUT PROPRIETARY AI COLLISION AVOIDANCE AT CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026
Closing the Operator Skills Gap with the Industry’s Only Unified ‘Sensor Fusion’ Safety Stack
Winner of the NIOSH 2024 Mine Safety Award and 2025 OH&S Product of the Year, VIA’s ruggedized ‘Digital Spotter’ technology eliminates blind spots to protect people and profits.
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA – February 3, 2026 – VIA Technologies, Inc. announced today that it will unveil its proprietary VIA AI-Powered Safety Solution with Sensor Fusion Collision Avoidance at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026 next month. To address the construction industry’s critical need to balance safety with operational speed, VIA will premiere two major innovations at Booth N12935: the fully integrated VIA Mobile360 Safety Solution and the retrofit-ready VIA® Detect.
THE PROPRIETARY ADVANTAGE: UNIFIED HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE
Most safety systems function as a patchwork of cameras and radars from one vendor and software from another. VIA Technologies differentiates itself as a Single-Source manufacturer, constructing both the brain (AI Software) and the body (Ruggedized Hardware) in-house.
By controlling the entire stack, the system fuses Radar data and Camera visuals into a single, instant decision. For the Fleet Manager, this Unified Architecture creates a system that is completely brand agnostic. It installs seamlessly on almost any vehicle, whether a 2026 loader or a legacy one, allowing operations to standardize one safety solution across their entire mixed fleet.
HIGHLIGHTS & KEY INNOVATIONS:
Brand-Agnostic & Retrofit-Ready: Designed to integrate with any make or model of heavy equipment, regardless of manufacturer. This universal compatibility allows safety directors to deploy a single, standardized training protocol across a diverse fleet of excavators, loaders, and haulers.
The ‘Digital Spotter’ Advantage: Proprietary AI visuals (The ‘Blue Box’ Overlay) instantly identify humans, vehicles, and obstacles in the blind spots, including berms and fences.
Zero Alert Fatigue: Time-to-Collision (TTC) technology filters out harmless parallel traffic. Operators are alerted only to imminent threats, keeping them focused on the job, not the noise.
Targeted Reversing Safety: For operations that do not require full-perimeter monitoring, VIA® Detect offers a streamlined, standalone solution. It focuses proprietary Sensor Fusion technology exclusively on the rear blind spot, utilizing smart gear-direction logic to replace passive cameras with active intelligence exactly where it is needed most.
Protecting Ground Crews: When a hazard is detected, the system triggers Exterior Warning Lights and Alarms, alerting pedestrians to move to safety. This active warning is critical in high-decibel environments where backup beepers are ignored.
EXECUTIVE INSIGHT
“The industry is tired of patchwork solutions. We engineered the hardware to withstand the extremes and the software to understand the risk. This isn’t just about compliance; it’s about continuity. Because when you eliminate false alarms and collisions, you maximize uptime.”
