FloodPUK
Flash Flood Early Warning Sensor
FloodPUK is a purpose-built water level sensor engineered for rapid-onset flood environments. Designed for deployment across roads, culverts, bridges and floodways, it delivers reliable, real-time level data that supports faster operational decisions and safer community outcomes.
Deployed across: Townsville, Hinchinbrook, Cassowary Coast, Wujal Wujal, and multiple Energy Queensland sites across North and Southeast Queensland.
Key outcomes:
RainPUK
Hyperlocal Rainfall Intelligence
RainPUK provides high-accuracy rainfall measurement exactly where it matters - within the catchments that drive flash flooding. When paired with water level sensing, it strengthens predictive capability and improves understanding of rapidly evolving storm events.
Key outcomes:
LinePUK
Electrical Safety and Flood Interface Monitoring
LinePUK monitors conductor-to-ground clearance and identifies emerging electrical hazards, particularly during flood conditions where ground levels can change rapidly. It enables utilities to respond earlier and manage risk to both field crews and the public.
Proven at scale: 150 sensors deployed across a major UK electricity network. Also deployed with Energy Queensland for flood-interface monitoring across North and Southeast Queensland.

Where physical sensing meets machine vision
PUKVision
Customisable Machine Vision Applications
PUKVision is a fully customisable machine vision system that turns visual data into actionable intelligence. It works on live video feeds, still images, and historic footage - identifying objects, conditions and hazards specific to each client's needs, without requiring constant human monitoring.
Every deployment is different. We train and configure PUKVision to detect what matters to you - whether that's water across a road, contaminants in a waste stream, or something nobody's asked us to detect before.
Camera Infrastructure:
Works with your existing cameras OR LiXiA-supplied hardware
Processing Location:
Edge, cloud, or hybrid - configured to your requirements
Configurable Detections:
Our deployments can use active learning on top of the initial training set, meaning detection models can continuously improve over time as they get more examples to learn from.
What makes it different:
This isn't a fixed product with a predetermined set of detections. PUKVision is configured to each client's specific requirements. If you can describe what you need to detect, we can train it.
Prove it on your own data first: PUKVision works on historic footage - meaning you can run detection models against recordings you already have. That opens up retrospective analysis for incident investigation, compliance auditing, and proving the concept before committing to a live deployment.
Key capabilities:
Proven Applications
Water Over Road Detection
Automated detection of water across road surfaces using live camera feeds. Supports road closure decisions by providing continuous visual confirmation without requiring physical inspection. Pairs with FloodPUK water level data for corroborated, multi-source flood intelligence.
Contaminant Detection and Waste Classification
Identifies contaminants and waste types in waste streams using visual analysis. Supports compliance monitoring, process control, and incident response for waste management and industrial operators.
Number Plate Recognition and Automation
Automated number plate capture and recognition for access control, asset tracking, and compliance monitoring. Configurable for specific operational workflows and integration with existing management systems.
Beyond These Examples
These are starting points, not limits. PUKVision has been built as a customisable detection framework. If your operation has a visual detection challenge - something you currently rely on people watching screens or doing physical inspections to catch - talk to our Design Studio team

TiltPUK
Structural Movement Intelligence
TiltPUK detects subtle asset movement long before it becomes visible, supporting proactive maintenance strategies across buildings, poles and critical infrastructure.
Proven at scale: 240 sensors monitoring structural movement across building assets for a Queensland transmission network operator.
Key outcomes:
TempPUK
Local Atmospheric Intelligence
TempPUK delivers local atmospheric insight - including temperature, humidity and pressure - enhancing environmental models and supporting more accurate risk interpretation across sensor networks.
Key outcomes:
A monitoring network, not a catalogue of sensors
Every PUK product is designed to work as part of an integrated monitoring system. Water levels gain predictive context from rainfall data. Flood conditions trigger electrical safety assessments. Atmospheric data sharpens risk models. The value isn't in any single sensor - it's in the intelligence that emerges when they work together.
Corroborated Intelligence: FloodPUK + PUKVision
FloodPUK detects rising water. PUKVision confirms water over road visually. Together, they provide corroborated flood intelligence from two independent sources - level data and visual confirmation. That's the kind of redundancy that makes engineers and risk managers very comfortable.
