Manufacturer demonstration
The homepage embeds Touchless solutions: How to convert a push button to wave switch, published by ASSA ABLOY, using Vimeo’s enabled embed player. The clip begins near the hand activation sequence at 2 minutes 49 seconds. It shows manufacturer training equipment, not a WaveToOpen project or an endorsement. The video remains hosted by its publisher.
Original concept artwork
The WaveToOpen mark, activation illustration and editorial diagrams were created for this website. They explain project concepts rather than specifying installation, wiring or compliance details.
