Tools used to detect underlying structures, such as behind the surface of a wall, can include a first sensor, such as an electromagnetic sensor, configured to generate data indicative of the location of the underlying structure. Tools can include an indicator that provides an indication to a user based on the data. Tools can additionally or alternatively include an infrared imaging device for generating infrared image data indicative of the heat pattern of a scene. A display can display the generated infrared image data. Underlying structures may be visible in the heat pattern of the scene. The tool can indicate the presence of an underlying structure feature to an operator via one or both of the display and the indicator.

A platform through-beam sensor device includes a transmitter module and a receiver module. A light emitted by a light-emitting element of the transmitter module is shaped into a light pattern range by a transmitter mask. A range of the light received by a light-receiving element of the receiver module is changed to a receiving range by a receiver mask. When the present invention is used, the transmitter module and the receiver module are respectively installed on two ends of a mechanical apparatus that move relative to each other. After determining a safety range of the relative movement of the two ends, a state that the light-receiving element falls into the light pattern range and the light-emitting element falls into the receiving range is set to be within the safety range. Upon exceeding the safety range, a flying platform is controlled to stop, thereby improving the safety of the flying platform.
