S Laser RADAR Technology for Structural Health Monitoring

OMMATIDIA'S LASER RADAR TECHNOLOGY Ommatidia's Q1S system generates 128 beams of laser light and is able to measure vibration and deflection for each beam with exquisite accuracy. Additionally, thanks to its parallel interferometric capability, our Laser RADAR can resolve the 3D position of points on an object with an accuracy of a few hundreds of microns over long periods of time, allowing monitoring applications. Precise determination of surface coordinates with accelerated data acquisition. Automated measurements without markers or surface modification. What are the advantages? The long...

VIBRATION MEASUREMENTS WITH THE Q1S The Q1S excels at measuring local vibrations in large civil structures using infrared light. Special algorithms enhance the unit's sensitivity, allowing for operational modal analysis based on ambient excitation only. The system meets and exceeds the performance of high-sensitivity accelerometers, with improved lowfrequency performance. The Q1S simplifies fixed installation in various infrastructure types, and with its IP54 protection, it is suitable for long-term outdoor operation. This robust construction also enables cost-efficient deployment. Why...

DEFLECTION MEASUREMENT & LONG-TERM MONITORING Ommatidia’s Q1S combines two measurement modes to study movements of constructions and infrastructure. Short-term deflections: Deflection Curves: The Q1S can integrate the vibrometry information to obtain high-resolution deflection curves for each of its 128 parallel laser beams. This mode has typical RMS noise <1µm and produces curves with 40kHz sampling rate, able to capture the fastest transients. Long-term displacement: Absolute Interferometry: The Q1S makes use of absolute interferometry with an internally calibrated reference to provide...
