TSCM technical specifications for spy cameras

• Radioelectric detection range: professional equipment that covers from low frequencies to high frequency bands used by wireless cameras.
• Optical inspection: scanners and lens detectors that identify lenses hidden in everyday objects (watches, smoke detectors, plugs, lamps).
• Thermal analysis: thermographic camera to identify electronic components that emit heat inside furniture or equipment.
• Physical inspection: high-definition endoscopes to check cavities, ducts and false ceilings without invasive manipulation.
• Estimated duration: Standard inspection of 1 hour per room or office; time may increase depending on the size and complexity of the space.
• Technical interventions: dismantling or opening of elements only under the express authorization of the owner to guarantee the integrity of the furniture.
• Documentation: photographic record, signal records and time records to ensure technical traceability.

Examples of use

• Private residence: Check rooms, bathrooms or common areas after suspicions due to strange behavior or physical findings.
• Temporary accommodation (hotel or apartment): Inspect the room after detecting signs of hidden cameras or when booking accommodation that generates distrust.
• Offices and workspaces: Protect confidential conversations and business meetings in business environments.
• Shared workspaces: Ensure that there are no cameras integrated into shared equipment or furniture.
• Sensitive spaces: Audit interview rooms, fitting rooms, bathrooms, classrooms or consulting rooms where privacy is a priority.

Methodology and procedure

The procedure is carried out following criteria of precision, traceability, and minimal intrusion. Before the intervention, basic information about the space is gathered in order to perform a preliminary risk analysis. Next, the technician conducts a detailed visual inspection of the surroundings, furniture, and objects that could potentially house cameras or surveillance devices. Subsequently, a radio sweep is performed to identify active transmitters. This is complemented by an optical scan aimed at detecting hidden lenses. Finally, a thermal analysis and endoscopic inspection of cavities or hard-to-reach areas are performed. All findings are documented technically, and specific recommendations are provided for their neutralization or removal.

Limitations and clarifications

The service is designed for the detection of hidden cameras and other electronic surveillance devices. Completely inactive equipment or equipment without a power source may not generate detectable radio emissions, so the service is complemented by physical and endoscopic inspections, always with the client's authorization. Throughout the entire process, the chain of custody of the evidence and the confidentiality of the results are guaranteed. Upon any discovery, the client receives advice on possible actions to take and the most appropriate measures to reinforce the security of the premises.

ESPIAMOS® combines operational experience, specialized training, and cutting-edge technology. Our expertise in TSCM electronic countermeasures and the sale of professional equipment allows us to offer inspections of the highest reliability and technical rigor. This service provides security, documentation, and practical recommendations to effectively protect personal or corporate privacy.

Frequently Asked Questions about TSCM's Hidden Spy Camera Detection Service

What is the difference between this service and a TSCM comprehensive electronic sweep?

The hidden camera detection service focuses exclusively on locating lenses and video recording devices in private or professional settings. Unlike comprehensive electronic sweeps, which also analyze microphones, recorders, and audio transmitters, this service is optimized to identify cameras concealed or miniaturized within everyday objects.

What types of cameras can be detected?

During the inspection , wired or wireless cameras, IP cameras connected to Wi-Fi networks, devices that use Bluetooth or radio frequencies, and cameras hidden in objects such as smoke detectors, plugs, clocks, lamps, or air conditioning systems can be located.

Where is the service provided?

The service is available throughout Spain. In Madrid and Galicia, there is no additional cost for the technician's travel. In the rest of the country, an individualized quote is applied based on the location and characteristics of the area to be inspected.

How long does a full inspection take?

The average duration is 1 hour per room or office, although this can vary depending on the size, furniture, and complexity of the environment. Large offices or corporate facilities may require more time or additional technical equipment.

How are hidden cameras detected?

A combination of professional methods is used:

• Optical laser scanning to locate lens reflections on objects or structures.
• Radioelectric analysis to identify cameras with wireless transmission or connected to Wi-Fi or Bluetooth networks.
• Thermal detection to locate active electronic components that generate heat.
• Physical and endoscopic inspection to check cavities, false ceilings or furniture.

Does it require disassembling furniture or elements of the space?

Only in specific cases and always with the express authorization of the owner . The service is performed using non-invasive techniques and respecting the integrity of the items inspected. If it is necessary to access the interior of an object, prior permission is requested.

What happens if a hidden camera is found?

The discovery is documented through photographic records and technical measurements. The technician will not handle the device without the client's authorization. If legal action is anticipated, it is recommended to commission a TSCM Expert Technical Report to officially document the evidence.

Is it possible to detect cameras that are not transmitting a signal?

Yes, although with limitations. Cameras without active transmission or a power source do not generate detectable emissions. In those cases, a thorough physical and optical inspection is performed to identify any suspicious lenses or components.

What training do the technicians have?

Inspections are carried out by professionally accredited Electronic Countermeasures Specialists (TSCM) . ESPIAMOS® provides training in electronic detection techniques, thus guaranteeing that the service meets the most demanding technical standards.

Is the service confidential?

Yeah. All services are provided under an indefinite confidentiality agreement . Client data, results, and collected images are permanently protected and are not shared with third parties without express authorization.

Is the service valid for hotels or tourist apartments?

Yes. This service is ideal for inspecting hotel rooms, tourist accommodations, or rental apartments where hidden cameras are suspected. The analysis is tailored to the type of accommodation and can be carried out with complete discretion.
