AMS Technologies AG
AMS Technologies has announced a polymer optical fiber (POF) based strain sensor for applications including wind turbine blade load management and structural health monitoring. Based on a patented optical phase interrogation technique developed by Avago Technologies, the sensor enables the POF to be used as a strain sensor on par with those based on current fiber Bragg gratings. The optical sensor employs the POF to form a “meander path” sensor array that allows a single fiber to form multiple loops that fit in a confined area. When strained, these loops alter the...See full product
