Early-access research · Windows
FaultWatch uses a webcam to observe a physical display, flag suspicious visual changes, and save a local evidence report for review.
A product by Unrealized · independent product research based in the Netherlands.
Unattended observation for intermittent display cases
Local evidence that stays on the operator's device
Human review before any repair decision
A focused workflow
FaultWatch is designed for repair and technical service benches where a visual fault may disappear while someone is watching.
It can observe another device, or guide an individual through monitoring the same computer with an external webcam and a static reference screen.
Point a stable webcam at the intended display and set the analysis area.
Let FaultWatch calibrate to the setup and monitor during a real case.
Inspect local clips and the report before drawing a conclusion.
Evidence, not a verdict
Each completed session can produce locally stored clips, event details, and an HTML report. A detected event is a prompt to review what the camera saw. It does not identify an electrical cause or certify that hardware is fault-free.
Built for the bench
FaultWatch is a local Windows application. In the current private-beta candidate, it has no user accounts, cloud storage, telemetry, or background upload.
Operators should keep people, customer documents, and unrelated screens outside the camera view. The analysis area guides detection; saved event media can include the full camera frame.
Reports and evidence are saved to a folder controlled by the operator.
Review clips before sharing them or using them in a repair decision.
The operator chooses the camera, monitoring period, output location, and retention.
Private-beta research
FaultWatch is looking for a small number of device owners, independent repair businesses, refurbishment, returns, and QA teams that encounter intermittent display issues.
