Dynapac North America and Bluelight Machines announced in February a strategic collaboration to showcase autonomous compaction solutions to contractors across North America. The technology was demonstrated at CONEXPO 2026, where Dynapac’s 84-inch, 11-ton CA2500D Seismic Soil Roller operated in Bluelight Machines’ live autonomous equipment demonstration.
The demonstration showed how Bluelight’s autonomy platform integrates with Dynapac compaction equipment in a real-world job site environment. Dick Zhang, the president of Bluelight Machines and software co-developer, said, “By combining Bluelight’s go-to-market-ready autonomy platform with Dynapac’s proven compaction equipment, we’re delivering a practical, scalable solution that is already performing on active job sites today.”
Bluelight Machines’ autonomy platform is currently deployed on active job sites across the United States and internationally, with approximately 75% of installations operating in compaction applications. The company offers retrofit kit options for compaction equipment and haul trucks, supported by a growing distribution network.
“Having Bluelight autonomy available for Dynapac rollers is a major step forward for our customers,” said Jennifer Bishop. She’s the director of product marketing and customer experience for Dynapac North America. “By combining Bluelight’s autonomy platform with Dynapac’s Seismic technology, contractors gain a fully integrated, market-ready autonomous compaction solution that delivers exceptional precision, consistency and performance. Backed by our Dyn@link telematics platform, we’re seeing engaged contractors improve utilization on soil rollers and realize efficiency gains and increased production.”
