Radar Intelligence  ·  Agentic AI

Sensing the Invisible.
Protecting the Essential.

Soarwave builds radar and agentic AI that understand the physical world. First, SOARCARE: it tells carers and families when an older person needs help, with no cameras and nothing to wear.

Our Mission

Engineering where
AI meets the physical world

At Soarwave, we engineer the intersection of artificial intelligence and electromagnetic sensing. Our mission is to develop intelligent RF systems that redefine how we monitor, protect, and understand the physical world, from a care-home bedroom to the radio spectrum itself.

We believe the most important breakthroughs happen when cutting-edge signal processing meets autonomous, self-learning AI agents — creating systems that don't just observe, but understand.

What We Build

Two Pillars of
Intelligent Sensing

Our technology spans eldercare and spectrum intelligence, built on one core: autonomous RF agents that learn, adapt, and protect.

Elderly Care · AI Monitoring

SOARCARE

Radar, sound and an agentic AI that learns each person's routine, at home or in a care home, and calls for help only when something is really wrong.

  • Fall warnings: a voice companion asks first, then calls the family
  • Notices no movement at the usual time, and unusual breathing
  • Learns each person's daily rhythm
  • No cameras, nothing to wear
  • Apps for families, carers and municipalities

RF Intelligence · Spectrum AI

Agentic AI for RF

Autonomous AI agents designed for complex radio frequency environments — managing spectrum, detecting interference, and executing intelligent signal strategies in real time.

  • Autonomous spectrum management
  • Real-time interference detection & mitigation
  • Signal intelligence and classification
  • Self-adapting agents for dynamic RF environments
  • Cognitive radio and spectrum sensing
Agentic AI for RF
Under the Hood

Built on the frontier of
RF & Artificial Intelligence

Our technology stack combines deep RF engineering expertise with state-of-the-art machine learning — creating systems that are not just smart, but genuinely autonomous.

01
FMCW Radar
Frequency-Modulated Continuous-Wave radar provides high-resolution range and velocity sensing — the physical foundation for presence, fall and non-contact vital-sign sensing.
02
Agentic Machine Learning
Purpose-built AI agents that operate autonomously in real-world RF environments — learning, adapting, and deciding without human intervention.
03
Vital-Sign Signal Processing
Algorithms that read breathing and movement from reflected RF waves, for non-contact health monitoring.
04
Cognitive Spectrum Engine
Intelligent spectrum sensing and management that understands RF context, optimizing usage and detecting anomalies in real time.

Soarwave at Startup World Cup Portugal 2026

Lisbon, Portugal  ·  June 2026

Soarwave was selected as one of 50 startups for the national final of the Startup World Cup Portugal, held June 17–18 at Unicorn Factory Lisboa — competing for investment from Caixa Capital and a place at the Grand Final in San Francisco.

We presented SOARCARE: radar combined with agentic AI that detects falls, monitors vital signs, and learns each resident's behavioral patterns — with no cameras, no wearables, and privacy built into the technology itself.
