Optical Analysis of Deformations with Artificial Intelligence
Project ID: FW03010653
Funded by: Technology Agency of the Czech Republic (TA CR)
Duration: 2021–2024
Project Overview
Development of an optical deformation-measurement system enhanced by AI.
The project combines digital image correlation (DIC), custom signal-reconstruction algorithms, and dedicated synchronization hardware for analysing dynamic and fatigue-related mechanical behaviour.
Key AI Features
- Automated configuration of measurement devices
- AI-based qualification of sample placement
- Automatic setup of measurement parameters
- Reconstruction of irregularly sampled and non-synchronised signals
Key Vibrography Features
- FFT-based deformation processing (ODS – Operating Deflection Shapes)
- EMA – Experimental Modal Analysis
- OMA – Operational Modal Analysis
- Synchronization of periodic & quasi-periodic events using wired or wireless modules
Applications
- Optical extensometer for UTM with automatic tool and gauge-length setup
- Automated optical sample positioning and alignment
- Contactless modal analysis with industrial cameras
- High-speed vibration analysis with high-performance cameras
- Modal analysis using standard cameras combined with synchronization hardware
