Advanced Service Available

INNOVATIVE MONITORING SYSTEMS BASED ON FIBRE OPTIC TECHNOLOGY

Innovations and Benefits

The service allows to monitor various parameters (temperature, deformation, humidity, pressure, acceleration, etc...) at the same time and by using the same measuring instrument.
Intrinsic fibre optic technology, with no need of electrical power at the location where monitoring is done. The technology is fully immune from electromagnetic disturbances.
Simplified routing of multiple sensors over extended areas with in-series cabling of sensors, even if devoted to monitoring different parameters.
Sensors with reduced footprint and visibility.

Use

Metrology, structural health monitoring, non-destructive testing. Monitoring of engineering structures devoted to both security and safety (mechanical structures, large civil and transportation engineering structures, archaeological and monumental cultural heritage complexes, geotechnical and seismic monitoring). Measurement of biomedical parameters.

Applications and ongoing Activities

Measurement of biomedical parameters and monitoring during interventional radiology.
Permanent structural monitoring of large civil and geotechnical engineering structures.
Development of Weigh In Motion systems and speed-measuring systems.
Monitoring of archaeological and monumental complexes.

Characteristics

CUSTOM Thanks to its flexibility, the service can be adjusted to different needs and contexts
