Zusammenfassung:An implementation of systems, devices and methods for a sensor to find a hidden element behind a surface are provided. The sensor includes a housing with a radiant indicator in a bottom section of the housing. The radiant indicator is translucent and acts as another indication that the sensor is over the hidden element. The sensor also includes a light source, such as an LED, which lights the radiant indicator with a beam, as well as optionally projecting an image on the surface, for example, formed by the bottom section and a top section of the housing. The same light source may also be used to project a second beam to an indicator on the top section of the housing.
