- Dual sensing advantage: Piezo-electric acoustic sensor + subsurface soil moisture probe — uniquely capturing leaks that acoustic-only systems miss.
- Onboard AST-MLP AI engine classifies leaks in near-real-time with interpretable attention maps. No black-box decisions.
- Solar-battery hybrid power — fully off-grid capable for rural, remote, and infrastructure-poor deployments.
- Non-invasive clamp-on installation to valves, hydrants, and pipe saddles. No excavation. No service interruption.
- Real-time alerts via cloud dashboard, WiFi, 4G, and SMS. Peer-reviewed research submitted to Water Research (Elsevier, IF: 12.4).
