I have looked and work in construction /night watch and so far only able to find pipes or things with metal detector problem is fibre optics are ussualy laid without any metal good and bad since impossible to find atleast so far that I know. I have an idea for using laser to detect by using pulse but looking if there is already a design out there I just not finding thanks.
lol i am in planning designs and research but so far u can call any company and hey dont know were their own lines are 90% of the time and the m-scopes we use are like 15k and they dont pick up the cables at all picks up a pipe though and anything else that has slightest bit of metal. thanx for answers and if u have idea’s would love to hear like i said currently trying to design since i Cannot find any product out there to find fibre optic cable thats in the ground-work gas pipeline so we dig alot
thanx will have to look into the radar i think it may disrupt the cabel signals though and lol trying not to do that or cut them up but just wish they knew were they were laid takes them forever so we just ussually get clearance to dig and if we break we fix like ussual
we have a metro tech that u connect to a coper wire that goes down to the wire but when this is not present there is no way to find it beside wait for company or dig slow and dont break it.
so far the dopplar radar looks like it might be of use how about a frequency finder since if it has information sending through it wont it have a frequency
I have extended the closing on this since yet to get post saying there is a patent out there on anything to find them without connectiong to a lead wire.
I thank all of you for your answers and time in this matter.
I have much to think about thank you ^v^
