Two people tracked in the water treatment site From Blind Spots to Real-Time Control Critical infrastructure is entering a new reality. The risks facing operators today are rarely dramatic or obvious. Instead, they tend to be subtle, incremental, and often human-driven. For organizations managing large and complex facilities, the real challenge is no longer simply to monitor activity. It is to understand what is actually happening across the site in real time and to recognize

High-detail scan of the material At a modern metal recycling site, scrap rarely arrives in neat, predictable forms. Instead, what moves along conveyors and sortation lines is dense, mixed material with shifting geometries that have long made automation feel unreachable.  That is precisely why Swerim initiated and leads the project PURESCRAP which focuses on automated systems for online characterization of post-consumer scrap. As a leading industrial research institute focuse

What if infrastructure could actually understand its surroundings? Water. Power. Transport. Emergency response. The systems we rely on every day are no longer only exposed to storms, wear, or technical failure. They are increasingly tested by deliberate, subtle, and coordinated actions designed to exploit blind spots and weak signals before anyone notices. And that is exactly the problem. Most infrastructure protection today is still reactive. Patrols. Cameras. Alarms. Snapsh

Gustav Nordlund, CEO at Flasheye, and Jens Hedlund, CEO at Hedlunds Luleå, Sweden – February 2026 – Flasheye, a provider of real-time 3D perception software, and Hedlunds, a leading supplier of log handling solutions, have entered into a strategic collaboration to introduce LiDAR-based 3D technology to the sawmill industry. The collaboration combines Hedlunds’ extensive domain expertise in log handling and sawmill processes with Flasheye’s expertise in LiDAR technology and s

What if your infrastructure could sense what’s happening — in real time? In this webinar, we explore how stationary LiDAR perception is helping cities and operators turn passive infrastructure into intelligent environments. You’ll see how 3D perception delivers real-time awareness for safety, traffic optimization, compliance, and predictive maintenance — without relying on outdated technology or manual monitoring. This session is designed for infrastructure leaders who want p

1. Sensors generate measurements, not meaning. LiDAR, radar, and cameras output point clouds, pixels, and signal returns, but these are only raw measurements tied to time and space. To enable autonomy, this data must be synchronized, filtered, and converted into consistent spatial representations. Accurate calibration, low-latency processing, and robust handling of noise and occlusion are essential before any higher-level decision logic can exist. 2. Perception software trans
