Pinpoint — Sound & Magnetic Field Detector

Embedded SystemsDefence Technology, Surveillance, Security & Monitoring⭐ Featured
Overview

A specialised detection system that identifies and localises hidden electronic devices, unauthorised equipment, or abnormal activity in sensitive environments. Suitable for defence agencies, security teams, research organisations, and critical infrastructure operators.

Key Features & Capabilities
  • High-sensitivity sound detection for abnormal acoustic patterns
  • Magnetic field sensing to detect electronic components and metallic objects
  • Real-time signal processing and noise filtering
  • Portable and compact embedded design
  • Visual and alert-based indication for easy identification
  • Configurable sensitivity levels for different environments
Challenge / Problem Statement

In high-security zones, detecting covert electronic devices, abnormal sound signatures, or magnetic field disturbances is a major challenge. Traditional inspection methods are time-consuming, intrusive, and often inaccurate, especially in environments with high electromagnetic noise.

Oxymora Solution

Oxymora designed and developed Pinpoint, a Sound & Magnetic Field Detection system that integrates advanced sensors, signal processing algorithms, and embedded intelligence. The system continuously monitors environmental sound and magnetic field data, filters background noise, and identifies anomalies.

Hardware
  • High-sensitivity microphones
  • Magnetic field sensors (Hall-effect / magnetometer)
  • Microcontroller-based embedded system
  • Custom power management circuitry
Software / Firmware
  • Embedded C/C++
  • Sensor drivers and calibration algorithms
  • Signal processing and filtering logic
  • Real-time event detection
Outcome / Impact

Enabled faster and more reliable detection of hidden electronic or magnetic sources. Reduced manual inspection effort in sensitive areas. Improved accuracy and response time compared to conventional methods. Delivered a scalable platform adaptable for future enhancements.
