WaveSightA new kind of camera

See throughwalls.

On the camera's screen: the studs, a cable and two back boxes inside the wall.
A WaveSight camera held in front of a painted wall. Its screen shows what is inside the wall behind it: timber studs, a cable running between two back boxes, and water pipes.

The idea

Thermal shows you the heat on a surface. LiDAR shows you its shape. WaveSight shows you what the surface is hiding: the pipe, the cable, the missing part, the thing that should not be there.

What it is for

01/ 04Construction

See through walls.

Map mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems with millimeter accuracy. WaveSight is the missing link in Building Information Modeling.

A bare concrete wall on a building site, marked with a spray-painted cross.The same wall scanned: a grid of reinforcing bar, conduits and a pipe inside the concrete.
  • Clear to core
  • Junction box
  • Drain riser

02/ 04Inspection

Pinpoint issues in no time.

WaveSight penetrates surfaces thermal and LiDAR cannot, giving unprecedented insight into existing issues and as-built conditions.

A tiled bathroom wall with a wall-mounted tap.The same wall scanned: supply pipes behind the tiles, and water spreading from a leaking elbow joint.
  • Leak at elbow
  • Supply
  • Mixer valve

03/ 04Manufacturing

Final inspection, anytime, anywhere.

Confirm hidden assembly conditions, part presence, and dimensional accuracy, on the manufacturing line or in the field.

A cordless drill, assembled and closed.The same drill scanned: motor, gearbox, chuck, wiring and five battery cells inside the housing.
  • Motor
  • Gearbox
  • Cells, 5 of 5

04/ 04Security

Keep secure.

Screen bags, packages, and deliveries for metallic and non-metallic items, independent of stationary checkpoints.

A closed canvas backpack.The same backpack scanned: a laptop, a bottle, keys, headphones, a charger and a folding knife inside.
  • Blade
  • Bottle
  • Keys

What it replaces

Thermal and LiDARstop at the surface.

WaveSight penetrates surfaces thermal and LiDAR cannot.

The same wall seen three ways. Thermal sees how warm the surface is. LiDAR sees the surface's shape. WaveSight sees the studs, cable and back boxes inside.
