A Better Way to Capture Manhole Inspection Data

POSM Manhole is our newest inspection application, designed from the ground up to pair with the Owl Vision 360° Manhole Camera and our ruggedized control briefcase .

Many crews struggle with a gap between low-cost “action camera” options and premium manhole systems that include features they may never use. Owl Vision and POSM Manhole were created to hit the sweet spot: powerful, professional tools that stay approachable and cost-effective.

Engineered for Smooth, High-Quality Video

The Owl Vision manhole camera was designed to capture a clean, stable descent through the structure. Compared to basic GoPro-style drops, the controlled lowering mechanism produces a smooth, even motion that results in a sharper unwrapped “flat view” image.

  • Smooth, steady descent for consistent video quality
  • High-quality stitched flat view imagery, second to none
  • Optional HD up to 4K video recording

Built Around NASSCO MACP

Shortly after releasing the Owl Vision camera, we created POSM Manhole to give MACP users a streamlined, camera-aware workflow. The software is ideal for agencies and contractors looking to capture NASSCO MACP inspection data with Owl Vision.

  • Hardware-agnostic Owl Vision manhole camera works with a variety of leading inspection control systems
  • Integrated distance counter with 100 counts per foot for accurate depth readings in real time
  • Custom MACP-ready interface with graphic manhole views and intuitive defect coding

Runs on the Ruggedized Control Briefcase

POSM Manhole is designed to run on our ruggedized control briefcase, which ships with a high-brightness 19" sunlight-readable monitor and a powerful Windows computer. In addition to manhole inspections, the case can capture video and data from mainline and push camera systems.

Ruggedized control briefcase for POSM Manhole and Owl Vision
The ruggedized control briefcase is the hub for your manhole and pipeline inspections.

The briefcase supports the full POSM product family. With the appropriate license, you can run POSM Pro, POSM Lite, or POSM Manhole from the same controller, powered by either 110 VAC or 12 VDC sources.

A Family of Products That Work Better Together

The Owl Vision camera has been a multi-year, company-wide R&D effort—an investment we believe will raise the bar for manhole inspections across the industry.

Now that the hardware is proven in the field, we've built a supporting ecosystem around it. The hard case remote unit controls the Owl Vision camera and can also integrate with several major brands of crawlers and push cameras.

Effective immediately, every Owl Vision manhole camera package includes a ruggedized controller pre-loaded with your choice of software: POSM Pro, POSM Lite, or the new POSM Manhole . These solutions are designed to work together—and to deliver high-end performance without the high-end price tag.
