Innovative Sensors: New Standards of Accuracy and Efficiency for Optical Deformation Sensor

Article Preview

Abstract:

After researching and analyzing existing deformation sensors, their several key features were identified. These features highlight, on one hand, important considerations for the development of new deformation sensors, and on the other hand, potential strategies for addressing the limitations that hinder the performance or applicability of current sensors—particularly in terms of accuracy and range of use. This paper explores both the design of a next-generation deformation sensor and the enhancement of existing transducers. Specifically, we introduce an optical deformation transducer capable of measuring the deformation of objects without being restricted by their material composition or size. The sensor’s measurements are minimally influenced by environmental factors, offering greater reliability. Additionally, the sensor is cost-effective, simple to manufacture, and easy to install.
