Sense
Radar signals detect movement and changes in the surrounding environment — through normal room conditions, in daylight or complete darkness.
Spatial signal active · Identity not captured
Safety intelligence without surveillance.
Guardianwave AI is developing privacy-preserving radar technology that understands movement, presence, and important safety events without cameras, wearables, or invasive monitoring.
Designed for homes, care environments, healthcare spaces, and secure buildings.

The problem
Safety should not require constant surveillance.
Today, keeping people and places safe often depends on cameras, wearables, basic motion detectors, or someone constantly watching. Each approach asks people to trade away comfort, dignity, or privacy — especially in the most personal spaces.
-
Cameras feel invasive at home
Few people want a lens in a bedroom, bathroom, or living room — exactly the places where many safety events happen.
-
Falls in private spaces can go unseen
Washrooms and bathrooms are high-risk places for falls, but cameras are rarely appropriate there — leaving caregivers without timely, privacy-respecting awareness when help may be needed.
-
Wearables get forgotten
Pendants and wristbands only help when they are worn, charged, and within reach at the critical moment.
-
Motion sensors say too little
Basic detectors know that something moved — not who is present, where activity happens, or when it stops unexpectedly.
-
Families are left guessing
When something unusual happens to a loved one living alone, relatives often find out hours — or days — later.
-
Security stops at the door
Many systems watch entrances and windows, but understand very little about what happens inside the building.
-
No one can watch everywhere
Care and security teams are stretched across many rooms and floors. Continuous human observation simply does not scale.
How it works
Understand a space without watching the people inside it.
Guardianwave AI is designed around a simple idea: a room can be understood through movement and presence patterns — not images of the people in it.
Understand
Guardianwavedge AI interprets anonymous edge-AI patterns such as movement, inactivity, occupancy, and unusual activity.
- Intrusion detection
- Fall detection
- Vital sign monitoring
- Presence monitoring
Respond
Relevant alerts or insights can be provided to families, caregivers, security teams, building managers, or facility operators — only what matters, when it matters.
Privacy by design
Understand what is happening without recording what someone looks like.
Drag the slider to compare what a camera captures with what Guardianwave AI is designed to interpret: anonymous position, movement, and occupancy — never a person's image.

Capabilities are being developed and are subject to testing and validation.
Meaningful awareness without another wearable.
In care settings, every additional device is another thing to manage. Guardianwave AI is intended to give staff anonymous, room-level awareness — with nothing attached to the person.
- Care rooms and patient rooms
- Assisted-living environments
- Rehabilitation spaces
- Supported-living facilities
- Non-contact presence and activity awareness
- Predictive health insights and AI diagnostics
Predictive health and AI diagnostic capabilities are under development and would require applicable clinical validation and regulatory approval before medical use.
A home that understands when something is different.
Instead of pointing cameras at your family, Guardianwave AI is designed to notice when activity patterns don't match what's expected — and stay quiet the rest of the time.
- Unexpected occupancy while you're away
- After-hours movement alerts
- Entry-zone activity awareness
- Room-level presence overview
- Perimeter and hallway awareness
- Configurable security zones
Guardianwave AI is intended to complement — not replace — locks, alarms, and other security measures.
Smarter awareness across complex spaces.
From offices to logistics sites, Guardianwave AI is being developed to help operators understand occupancy and unusual presence — floor by floor, zone by zone.
- Restricted-zone monitoring
- After-hours occupancy detection
- Room- and floor-level awareness
- Support for emergency-response decisions
- Occupancy understanding for smarter operations
- Building-automation opportunities
Integration options depend on the final product configuration.
Why radar
How radar sensing compares.
Every sensing technology involves trade-offs. This overview shows where radar sensing is designed to be strong — and where other technologies may fit better.
| Category | Guardianwave AI radar | Cameras | Wearables | Basic motion sensors |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Privacy | No images; anonymous spatial patterns by design | Captures identifiable video | Personal, but tracks the individual wearing it | Anonymous, but very limited data |
| Lighting dependence | Works in darkness and daylight | Needs light or infrared | Independent of lighting | Mostly independent of lighting |
| User participation | None — nothing to wear or charge | None | Must be worn and charged | None |
| Spatial awareness | Designed for room-level position and movement | Rich detail within the camera's view | Follows the person, not the space | Binary "movement / no movement" |
| Continuous operation | Intended for always-on operation | Continuous, but recording raises privacy questions | Limited by battery and wearing habits | Continuous |
| Private spaces | Designed to be acceptable in bedrooms and bathrooms | Often unacceptable in private rooms | Acceptable, if worn | Acceptable, but uninformative |
| Installation flexibility | Being developed for discreet in-room placement | Needs clear line of sight and careful placement | No installation; per-person setup | Simple, but multiple units say little |
No single technology is best for every situation. Cameras can be the right choice for entrances and public areas; wearables can add value for people who wear them reliably. Guardianwave AI is designed for the situations where privacy, continuous operation, and room-level awareness matter most.

FAQ
Questions, answered openly.
Radar sensing uses low-power radio-frequency signals to detect movement and changes in a physical space. Instead of producing images, it produces signal patterns that software can interpret as presence, movement, or inactivity.
No. Guardianwave AI is built on radar sensing and does not use cameras or capture video. Avoiding identifiable images is a core design principle, not an optional setting.
Guardianwave AI is designed to understand anonymous spatial patterns — where movement and presence occur — not who a person is. It does not perform facial recognition and does not capture images that could reveal someone's appearance.
No. Guardianwave AI is fully non-contact. There is nothing to wear, remember, or charge — the sensor observes the space itself.
Yes. Radar signals do not depend on visible light, so sensing is designed to work the same way at night as during the day — one reason it suits bedrooms and night-time monitoring scenarios.
Potential applications include private homes, independent-living settings, care and patient environments, offices, and secured buildings. Suitability depends on the specific space, use case, and the final product configuration.
No. Guardianwave AI is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat, prevent, or cure any medical condition. Any use in care settings is intended to provide general awareness, not clinical monitoring. Regulatory status depends on the final product and applicable regulations.
Guardianwave AI follows a data-minimization approach: process only what is needed to provide useful awareness. Configurable edge or local processing is part of the design goals. Exact data-handling options will depend on the final product configuration and will be documented transparently.
