Integration-ready

A sensing foundation for partner platforms

DAS projects depend on local installation design, event logic, and customer workflows. Planck focuses on the sensing equipment, software modules, and integration support needed by solution builders.

Event localization

Locate vibration and acoustic events along the fiber with meter-level spatial context.

Signal processing

Use Planck processing modules as the base layer for partner classification workflows.

Visualization

Dashboard views for signal analysis, event review, and operator awareness.

Platform integration

Data outputs and customization support for partner monitoring platforms.

DAS software

Understand the signal. Configure the measurement.

Planck Sensing handles the optical sensing and raw data processing, so you can focus on your applications and domain expertise. Our DAS software brings processed signals, visualization, and acquisition controls together for setup, site evaluation, and application development.

Phase and energy, side by side

Compare device-processed phase and band-energy waterfall views across fiber distance and time. Adjustable color scales help reveal signal patterns, while scan status, data health, and acquisition details keep the measurement context visible.
