FaultWatch · Private beta for Windows
Catch the screen fault
that comes and goes.
Some display problems only happen when you look away. FaultWatch uses a webcam to watch the screen and save clips of suspicious changes for you to review.
The setup
Watch the physical screen.
An internal screen recording can miss a fault in the display itself. An external webcam lets FaultWatch observe what is actually visible on the panel.
- 01
Set up the camera
Keep the webcam steady, point it at the display and select the area to analyse. Use a static reference screen.
- 02
Start a session
Let FaultWatch calibrate, then leave it watching for visual changes while you carry on with other work.
- 03
Review the clips
Open the saved clips and HTML report to see the flagged moments and their timing.
A recording to inspect.
A flagged event helps you find a moment in the footage. It does not tell you which component is faulty. A session with no flagged events does not prove the hardware is fault-free.
Saved on your computer
The current private beta has no accounts, cloud storage, telemetry or automatic uploads. You choose where reports and clips are saved.
The analysis area is not a privacy crop: saved clips can include the full camera frame. Keep people, customer documents and unrelated screens out of view.
Help test FaultWatch
Have a recurring display problem?
We are looking for repair shops, refurbishers, QA teams and device owners who can try FaultWatch on a real case and tell us how it went.
You will need Windows 10 or 11, a suitable external webcam and a setup that keeps sensitive information out of the recording. Participation is free during the research phase. There is no public installer yet.
Email a brief description of the problem and your current testing setup. Please leave out customer names, serial numbers and recordings.
