SonicGuard: Real-Time Noise Source Mapping for Active Factories

SonicGuard: Real-Time Noise Source Mapping for Active Factories

Smart Manufacturing • Global • Difficulty: Medium • Starting capital: €50k – €250k • Time to revenue: 4 months

Active factories face regulatory and safety risks from noise-induced hearing loss, yet lack non-invasive ways to pinpoint hazardous machinery without halting production. SonicGuard solves this by using low-power MEMS sensors to map specific noise sources in real-time, offering HSE directors continuous, non-disruptive compliance monitoring.
