For decades, non-destructive testing has been dominated by established methods such as ultrasound inspection. However, these approaches are inherently limited: they rely on physical contact, operate slowly and are difficult to scale for large-area components.
Using active thermography, voidsy enables non-contact imaging inspection of material structures. Inspections are fast and can be performed across large surfaces without coupling media. The result is a new cost-efficient inspection category based on optical defect analysis rather than point-by-point measurement.

The result is a new cost-efficient inspection category based on optical defect analysis rather than point-by-point measurement.
In active thermography-based material and component inspection, the thermal response of an actively stimulated component is measured. The resulting data is then transformed into 2D or 3D images by means of photothermal tomography. Analysis is performed through purpose-built software algorithms that make defects visible and interpretable.
This turns noisy thermal raw data into a precise representation of internal structures, which leads to faster and more informed decisions.
The V-ROX product family addresses a wide range of industrial requirements from efficient 2D inspection to advanced 3D defect analysis.
The systems differ in:
All variants are built on the same technological platform and can be expanded at any time through modular hardware and software upgrades.
Active thermography generates inherently noisy thermal raw data. Only through software-based visualization and analysis can this data be transformed into actionable information.
voidsy Inspect provides a modular analysis platform tailored to all V-ROX systems. From 2D visualization to full 3D reconstruction, it creates an integrated inspection workflow combining measurement, analysis and streamlined documentation.
This example shows an aerospace component made of carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP). No defects are visible on the surface. However, active thermography reveals hidden structural properties and potential material deviations — quickly, noncontact, and completely non-destructively.
All voidsy systems rely on more than 20 years of research in active thermography. Since the foundation of voidsy in 2022, the company has transformed this expertise into industrial-grade systems designed for real-world production and maintenance processes. The result: the next generation of non-destructive testing.
voidsy systems are used wherever material defects have direct safety implications and wherever the highest levels of reliability are required.
