I do see some risk from an ever-changing technological world. The FFT biz, which seems to be their jewel, may be V1.0, with more sophisticated utilisation of fibre down the track?

FiberSense, started by former sonar research scientist Dr Mark Englund in 2015, created and patented a new wide area sensor system for recording, labelling and visualising objects and events in real-time called VIDAR (vibration detection and ranging).

VIDAR is capable of capturing and analysing the tiny vibrations of nearby objects, such as cars, drills or even pedestrians, across large geographical grids using fibre optic cables. The vibration readings are then analysed and categorised on FiberSense’s digital platform SuperSoniQ, which it provides to clients as a subscription cloud based service.

Just like your ears, SuperSoniQ is able to use vibrations to detect and recognise objects and events in real time over wide areas, but it can not see faces or things. It also cannot hear voices.

The technology, Dr Englund said, will transform the way critical infrastructure assets such as power grids, telecommunication cables and sewerage pipes are managed, as well as be used to help enable autonomous vehicles.

though in both cases, with such extensive networks, what of signal to noise ratios?
