HxGN LIVE Las Vegas is underway and the Metrology Track kicked off in style as Hexagon Metrology President and CEO, Mr Norbert Hanke took to the stage for the opening keynote.
Entitled “Sensing. Thinking. Acting.” this inspirational address explored the evolution of Hexagon Metrology’s offerings since the acquisitions of Vero Software and Q-DAS and introduced a new philosophy about the interaction of measurement technology with the wider manufacturing environment. The keynote also featured real-world examples from customers who have embraced this intelligent manufacturing approach, using data to better control their processes and actively intervene to deliver quality that drives productivity.
HxGN LIVE is the international conference that brings together and showcases the power of Hexagon technologies. The first of two conferences for 2015, HxGN LIVE Las Vegas welcomes more than 3,500 attendees including customers and partners looking to access the latest trends in geospatial and industrial enterprise technologies, empowering them to do great things with far-reaching impact.
Under the theme “Great Stories Start Here”, HxGN LIVE is organised along six tracks and presents an exciting lineup of must-see technologies, exclusive presentations by industry experts, 400+ sessions, hands-on training and networking opportunities with peers from around the world.
