ROOTPILOT
3D Machine Control System - Smart Digging Starts Here
ROOTPILOT is a GNSS-based 3D machine control system designed to deliver precision, efficiency, and control on real job sites. Developed as an in-house solution, ROOTPILOT provides contractors with centimetre-level accuracy, simplified workflows, and flexible connectivity — without the cost and complexity of traditional third-party systems.
Designed to scale from everyday earthworks through to complex civil and infrastructure projects, ROOTPILOT helps operators work faster, reduce rework, and achieve consistent results across every excavation.
Why Choose ROOTPILOT?
ROOTPILOT is built for contractors who want advanced machine control without locked software ecosystems, unnecessary subscriptions, or complicated workflows.
• No third-party software required
• Operator-led workflows with minimal reliance on surveyors
• Flexible connectivity across multiple job sites
• Dealer-backed installation, training, and support
ROOTPILOT puts control back in the hands of site teams — from project setup through to final trim.
How ROOTPILOT Works
ROOTPILOT combines GNSS positioning, IMU sensors, RTK corrections, and real-time 3D guidance to provide operators with accurate excavation feedback directly in the cab.
Operators receive continuous visual guidance, helping them work precisely to design surfaces, avoid over-excavation, and maintain compliance with project specifications.
