Want to see what is inside the wall of your house? Walabot DIY allows you to do just that

An Israel-based 3D-sensor imaging company has developed a device that can tell you what is inside the wall of your house. A new device and app, Walabot DIY, lets you find the wires, studs, pipes, plastic, rodents and anything else that is buried inside a wall.

Walabot's sensor technology can look through walls to detect structural foundations, track a person's location and vital signs as they move through a smart home, measure the speed of a fastmoving ball and help drones and cars avoid collisions. Available on Android devices, Walabot's programmable sensors can open up a world of possibilities for curious inventors and developers worldwide.

“It can help the blind avoid obstacles,“ says Vayyer CEO and Cofounder Raviv Melamed. It can “sense -and alert you -if your mother or father has fallen in the shower, help your robot become autonomous and much more,“ Melamed adds.

The $200 Walabot currently works with Android phones only.It is a phone-sized block that attaches magnetically to its hostsmartphone, pulls power from the phone's Micro-USB port and functions with the help of an accompanying app.
