The Blast Hole Camera is a portable high-resolution inspection device. Cavities in blast holes pose a significant risk as they can lead to the uneven or excessive distribution of explosives. The Blast Hole Camera can assist in identifying cavities and mitigating resulting adverse blast outcomes such as poor fragmentation, misfires, or hazardous fly rock.

The Blast Hole Camera is built for durability in harsh conditions. It is waterproof (IP68), made of stainless steel, and has a modular protective centraliser and integrated lighting to capture 1080p HD videos in blast holes. The 7” screen detaches from the frame for easy viewing. The 30m cable, marked every 0.5m, is wound on a reel for easy deployment and precise depth measurement.
