Precision Sensing, Built From First Principles

Hodgins Holdings is an independent engineering venture in Northern Ontario, developing non-contact, laser-based volume sensing for wineries, construction sites, and transport fleets.

Our Story

Why We’re Building This

We set out to measure volume without touching the liquid at all: a laser sensor above the surface, paired with calibration models tuned to each vessel’s exact shape.

Everything we publish is grounded in mathematical modeling and simulation.

Progress

Where We Are Today

Complete

Reference Model

Volume modeled to within ±2% across the full fill range on our reference vessel.

In progress

Tank & Barrel Geometries

Extending our calibration models to the tank and barrel shapes used in wineries.

Now open

Pilot Program

Selecting a small number of pilot partners across wineries, construction, and transport.

Principles

How We Work

Claims We Can Back

Every figure on this site is tied to modeling and simulation. When field data changes a number, we update it.

Non-Contact by Design

Measuring from above the surface keeps contents clean, undisturbed, and sealed.

Focused Scope, Full Attention

We take on a small number of partners per sector, so every pilot gets real engineering attention.
