Tru-Vu Acquisition Announcement

GIVE CRANE OPERATORS A 2ND SET OF EYES

HookCam is a wireless camera system that attaches directly to the hook of a crane and delivers a live video stream to the operator in the cab to increase crane safety.  HookCam eliminates the communication issues faced when operating in the blind and gives the operator a second set of eyes, allowing them to better communicate with the rigger and respond to critical situations.  With the HookCam, the operator has more control of risks on the job site and can operate more safety and efficiently.

How do cameras/monitors benefit the crane industry?

• Allows the operator to confirm the load’s balance and security
• Gives the operator increased situational awareness to reduce accidents,   property damage or injury
• Operator has the ability to see the rigger and hand signals
• Supplements the radio communication with visual confirmation
• Allows the operator to view and verify and the “pick’ below, and the path to   the drop-off point
• Eliminates blind spots 

HookCam helps operators minimize risks and respond to critical situations.  In a study conducted by OSHA in 2000, they found that over 20% of crane accidents were caused by unsecured loads and 20% were attributed to lack of communication.  In a study conducted jointly by Haag Engineering and MIT, they found that 33.5% of injuries on a job site happen to riggers, and 20.7% of injuries occur when a worker is contacted by the load.  HookCam is focused on the rigger and the load to provide operators with the view necessary to minimize these risks and maximize safety.

In order for the HookCam to operate at maximum efficiency, the operator needs clear, sharp video images to enable him/her to make quick decisions. However, standard video screens can be very difficult to see in sunlight. Most of us have probably taken our laptop, tablet or cell phone outdoors or even inside near a window where the video display was exposed to sunlight and even with the brightness turned all the way up, it was still very difficult to see the image on the screen. Now imagine that same scenario, but instead of browsing the web or reading an ebook, you are in the cab of a crane; the speed and accuracy of your work and the safety of those below you depends upon your ability to see clear, sharp camera images in any lighting conditions. A standard monitor, exposed to sunlight, becomes virtually useless. That is why HookCam chose TRU-Vu Daylight Viewable monitors for use with their systems. These monitors feature high brightness and Optical Bonding to provide crystal clear images even in bright direct, sunlight. TRU-Vu was also able to embed some critical components inside the monitor enclosure, saving precious space inside the cramped cab interior.  

HookCam Company has been providing crane safety and productivity systems since 2003.

Their systems have been deployed at shipping ports and construction sites throughout the world. View more photos and videos

TRU–Vu industrial-grade monitors are designed and built for demanding industrial, commercial, military and medical applications.

They offer excellent image quality, wide viewing angles and robust, long-term performance.  They will operate 24/7/365, and are backed by a full 3-Year Warranty.

USED IN KIOSKS, TERMINALS, MILLS, WEIGH STATIONS & TRANSFER STATIONS WORLDWIDE

With the many advantages to upgrading load-out systems, there are also challenges that should be addressed prior to installation. Technology has helped increase the efficiency, accuracy and safety of load-outs by allowing the drivers to check in, weigh in, get lane verification, and weigh out through an automated kiosk ticketing system. This eliminates manual transaction errors, is user-friendly, and is safer, allowing drivers to get accurate quick results with less labor. The kiosks are installed at drive-up truck height which allows the drivers to stay in their trucks.  It can reduce liability, extend loading hours, improve traffic flow, and increase daily transactions and profits. It minimizes physical interactions between the scale house personnel and drivers to maintain social distancing as well.

Automated load-out solutions provide operators with clear, concise instructions at kiosks, grain terminals and feed mills worldwide.  It is far more reliable than an app on a phone that depends on battery levels or unreliable internet service in remote areas. Various other operations such as cement, frac sand, chemical plants, mining, construction/timber, landfills, and transfer stations are also benefiting from these systems.

At the heart of many automated load-out and ticketing systems is a touch screen monitor. This enables the trucker to enter and receive information, tickets and reports quickly, easily and without station personnel. In order for optimal unattended operation, the interactive touch screen monitor must operate 24/7, and function properly in a wide variety of adverse conditions.  There are several very important factors to consider when selecting, building or upgrading a load-out or ticketing system. (as featured in Feed and Grain Magazine)

The Top 10 challenges for displays used in automated ticketing & load-out systems are:

1. 1.   Damage due to dirt, dust, rain, sleet, snow or UV from the sun
   2.   Screen is difficult or impossible to see in sunlight
   3.   Extreme temperature operation
   4.   24/7/365 operation
   5.   Shock and vibration
   6.   Reliable operator interface
   7.   Compatibility / interconnect-ability
   8.   Specific power requirements
   9.   Difficult to use
   10.  Custom needs

TRU-Vu Monitors understands these potential challenges, and has introduced a new industrial-grade outdoor touch screen monitor which resolves all of these issues. The SRMHETRWP-15C is a 15” Sunlight Readable touch screen monitor with 1,500 nits of brightness. It features a waterproof panel-mount stainless steel enclosure. This model addresses all of the Top 10 challenges head-on:

1.   Waterproof Enclosure

Weather is obviously a huge concern at every location. Rain, sleet, snow, and ice would cause catastrophic damage to standard consumer-grade touch screens. The industrial-grade SRMHETRWP-15C features a stainless steel panel-mount enclosure, rated NEMA 4X. It offers protection from dust, rain, splashing and even hose-downs. The unit flush-mounts into your wall, door or kiosk to ensure easy installation and years of reliable performance. The screen features a UV-protective coating to eliminate damage from direct, bright sunlight.

2.   Sunlight Readable Screen

Drivers must be able to see and read content on the screen at any time of day. Unfortunately, standard touch screens are not bright enough to operate in direct, bright sunlight. Even sun visors and shields do not provide a reliable solution. Sunlight Readable monitors are able to display clear, sharp images even in indirect or direct sunlight without loss in image quality thanks to their higher brightness. Sunlight Readable monitors features screens with brightness of over 1,000 nits, compared to 200-300 nits for standard video monitors. Therefore, the result is an amazingly bright screen, even in direct, bright sunlight on the face of the screen. 

3.   Extreme Operating Temperatures

Extreme temperatures are a major concern. The displays must perform in Canadian winters and Las Vegas in the summer. The SRMHETRWP-15C is designed to operate outdoors in nearly any environmental conditions.  They perform in frigid conditions or blazing heat, and will operate in temperatures from -22°F up to 185°F.

4.   24/7 Unattended Operation with Industrial-Grade Reliability

One of the many advantages of an automated load-out system is round-the-clock 24/7/365 unattended operation. The touch screens must continue to function reliably, 24 hours a day, for years to come. All of our industrial-grade monitors and designed and built to do just that.

5. Maximum Shock & Vibration Resistance

Another consideration is shock and vibration. The monitors will experience consistent vibration, as well as possible accidental impact. Consumer-grade monitors will not withstand harsh treatment. However, TRU-Vu monitors undergo a unique treatment to maximize shock and vibration resistance. Our TRU-TUFF process includes RTV silicone on all critical components and connections; all wires are dressed, tie-wrapped and secured; and ThreadLock is applied to all screws. This ensures ongoing reliable performance.

6. Dependable Touch Screen Interface

There are 5 major types of touch screen technology available: 5-wire resistive, surface capacitive, projected capacitive, surface acoustic wave, and infrared. Which should you choose? The 5-wire resistive touch will offer the greatest combination of benefits for use in automated load-out systems:

• • •   Can be activated with virtually any object (finger, stylus, gloved    hand, pen)
    •   Has tactile-response feel
    • Low power consumption
    • Resistant to surface contaminants and liquids (dust, oil, grease, moisture)
    • Easy to use

7.  Seamless Integration

With both analog and digital video inputs, this model will easily connect to and work with nearly any new or existing systems. (additional inputs are also available). Unique panel-mount design is far easier to install than competitive models.

8.  12-24VDC, or 100-240VAC

Many terminals, stations and systems prefer the safety of DC power. This model operates on both 12 or 24VDC. An optional AC adapter enables it to run on 100-240VAC.

9.  User- Friendly

In order for the automated system to be a success, the operator interface must be easy for the truckers to use. This touch screen has the ability to be programmed with any type of user interface

10.  Customized Options

Although the SRMHETRWP-15C was specifically designed and built to meet the many demanding needs of an outdoor automated load-out system, we understand every project may have unique demands. We can customize nearly any aspect of this touch screen to meet your needs. Just ask!

Dan Burgdorf of Integrated Technology Solutions exclusively uses TRU-Vu outdoor panel-mount monitors and touch screens in their Premier Ticketing system.  The versatility of the wide operating temperature range (-22° to +185°F)has allowed them to successfully deploy their systems in the harshest of weather conditions.  From the heat of the highland deserts of West Texas to the coldest regions of Wisconsin, TRU-Vu has allowed them to standardize their product without having to deploy multiple different monitors for the outdoor conditions.  This allows them to stock items without worrying about what region they are headed to; this saves the end customer money and shortens lead times.

The TRU-Vu outdoor Sunlight Readable panel mount monitors and touch screens feature over 1,000 nits of brightness, 5 times brighter than standard video screens. This enables users to see clear, sharp images even in direct sunlight. TRU-Vu also applies a unique protective UV-resistant coating to every screen. This ensures that the surface of the monitor or touch screen will not degrade or deteriorate over time, due to direct, harsh sunlight, as is the case with many competitive models used in the past.

Integrated Technology Solutions designed and developed the Premier Ticketing solution to address the functional shortcomings of other load-out software that under-performed.  Premier Ticketing provides a comprehensive package that meets and exceeds customer requirements and expectations.

Premier Ticketing utilizes a state of the art back-office interface for reporting and billing and optimizes communications with PLC backed load-out hardware, all while giving operators a crisp and concise overview of load-out operations within the facility.

Through the years, ITS’ premier ticketing package can give customers the power and flexibility to optimize a facility that may load-out only a few trucks a day, to mega load-out facilities capable of 8 lanes loading out simultaneously from a single PC and operator.  By utilizing RFID technology for driver scan cards, Premier Ticketing is able to remember the drivers’ requested drop weights and find open orders they may have already been assigned to.  All of this technology comes together to minimize driver check-in time and total load cycle time.  It reduces interaction and manual inputs from load-out staff and provides clear instructions to the driver on where to proceed to and what to do when they arrive at the next point.  By integrating with site safety systems, the system is able to provide load-out staff with a safer environment by waiting for staff to be clear of the truck before providing lane assignments or printing bills of lading.

Premier Ticketing solutions prides itself on using stainless steel, modular construction builds in their outdoor enclosures.  By utilizing stainless steel construction, customers won’t have to worry about their hardware rusting away should a driver hit, graze or scratch their kiosks.  By using monitors from TRU-Vu, should a screen get damaged, customers are able to send their monitors for repair at a facility in the Midwest.  Quick repair turnaround allows site operators greater hardware availability.  By using a separate industrial hardened PC in our enclosures, this allows end users to swap out monitors and other components without being forced to involve the IT department, saving money and time.

Integrated Technology Solutions (ITS) started operations in 2004 as a St. Louis, MO based consulting firm and has grown to serve customers nationwide.  ITS develops and deploys custom solutions for their customers ranging from their Premier Ticketing system (“The first ticketing system designed 100% from scratch for the Sand Industry”), to their ITS ERP Data Portal (a customizable web application), to Manufacturing Control Systems.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A RETAIL LCD MONITOR AND AN INDUSTRIAL-GRADE MONITOR?

Why would you (should you) choose one over the other?

We hear these questions all the time. People are often confused about the characteristics of each type of video monitor, and don’t know which is best suited for their needs. No one wants to make the wrong decision.

Industrial-grade monitors tend to have a higher up-front cost, but are they worth it?? Well, like so many other things, the answer is “It depends….”

IT DEPENDS UPON WHEN, WHERE AND HOW YOU ARE GOING TO USE YOUR VIDEO DISPLAY

Will it be at home, indoors? Will it be outside, in bright sunshine or pouring rain? Will it be mounted in a vehicle, or on a boat? What types of features do you need? Does it need to be rugged? What about the picture quality?

The attached LCD monitor Comparison Guide will help educate you about the different features, attributes and capabilities of each style of monitor. This, in turn, should help you make an informed decision.

New 21.5″ Medical-Grade Monitor, Ideal Against COVID-19 Virus

   VIEW PDF

(Arlington Hts., IL) TRU-Vu Monitors, a leading provider of Medical-Grade video displays and Medical-Grade touch screens, is introducing a new 21.5” Fan-less Medical Display.

The new MMZB-21.5G-X Medical displays feature a 21.5” screen with 1920 x 1080 Full HD resolution. They are certified to the latest UL and IEC 60601-1-2 4th Edition regulations. They offer a variety of digital video inputs (HDMI, DVI, DisplayPort), and a touch screen option.

Zero-Bezel enclosure,  nowhere for germs to hide

One of the most exciting aspects of this new monitor is its unique Zero-Bezel enclosure design. A single sheet of glass covers the entire front of the display. This will maximize safety and hygiene, as deadly COIVD viruses and other germs have no where to hide. Unfortunately, standard monitor enclosures have a raised bezel or frame around the outer edges of the display. Germs and viruses can accumulate and reside along and under these bezels. With with a Zero-Bezel enclosure, there is nowhere to hide!

IP 65 FRONT FACE, RESISTANT TO FLUIDS

Another important benefit of this Zero-Bezel enclosure is its resistance to fluids. The front face is rated IP 65 splash-proof.  Additionally, the 4 corners of the display are rounded. This gives a much more modern look, and improving safety. There are no sharp corners which could injure people upon impact. All TRU-Vu Medical Monitors and Medical touchscreens feature these Zero Bezel enclosures.

MONITOR BUILT WITHOUT FANS, ELIMINATING CIRCULATION OR PATHOGENS

We build our Medical-Grade monitors without fans. This fan-less medical display provides numerous important benefits. Reliability and durability are increased, since one major moving part, the fan (which is subject to mechanical failure) is eliminated. A fan-less design also provides a higher level of safety in sterile environments, as it eliminates the circulation of pathogens and dust. Lastly, a fan-less monitor is also quieter.

These 21.5” fan-less medical displays are ideal for use in hospitals, urgent care centers, military fired hospital and anywhere else requiring the most modern medical imaging technology available today.  They are the ideal size for use on medical carts, and can also be mounted to arms in the O.R. via the rear VESA mount holes.

Custom LCD Monitors for Museum Exhibits

Museum curators strive to make their exhibits as authentic to the specific time-period as possible. TRU-Vu has provided a wide range of  custom LCD monitors, high brightness Sunlight Readable monitors, touch screens, and custom retro-look monitors to help achieve that goal for museums throughout the country.

A recent project for the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) was to integrate the benefits of the latest LCD monitor technology (superb image quality, 178° x 178° wide viewing angles, HDMI digital video inputs, etc.) into a more traditional 4:3 aspect ratio monitor. The curators wanted to match the LCD display screen size to their media’s native 4:3 aspect ratio in order to display the fully scanned film image without distortion or pillar-boxing.

TRU-Vu supplied numerous custom LCD displays, with traditional 4:3 aspect ratio, with 10.4 inch, 15 inch, and 19inch LCD panels to help achieve the curators’ goals. 

TRU-Vu has also provided numerous other custom monitors and touch screen solutions for a wide range of museums, art galleries and special exhibits.
