For our debut Titans of Tech recognition program, we looked for a Hall of Fame honoree who would set the tone for the years to come. Someone who not only advanced their own careers and business through technology, but who has been working consistently to lift Hawaii itself to new technological heights.
We found that person in Dennis Hirota, president of the civil engineering firm his father started, Sam O. Hirota, Inc.
I would say you've got the right person there. Dennis has always been on top of technology and I've enjoyed speaking to him on occasion about current technology and where things might be going. If not for anything else, he is a kind, approachable gentleman.

Well done Dennis!
I was surprised to see it on the LSF from half way around the world away from Hawaii, when most of the people here are just getting to their workstations. It was an interesting evening at the Pacific Business News presentation of awards last night. All award winners said that it is important for people in technology to help educate their K-12 through college communities because everything is accelerating at a faster rate.
In my closing remarks, I mentioned how small efforts in technology are important to helping build world class education. We will be doing that in a few hours from now by scanning the University of Hawaii football team locker room facility using our NavVIS M6 trolley. It may be a first for coaches to show recruits from around the world what great facilities they have in color 3D without using glasses.
We should all realize what a small, competitive world we live in, when people half way around the world in the UK receive information before the locals receive it.

Thank you Dennis,
Your contribution to the Laser Scanning Forum is very much valued, and I always look forward to reading your next post
Have a great weekend,
