What is the function of strain sensing fiber optic cables
Fiber optic strain sensors typically function by interpreting changes in light properties as strain is applied. These sensors utilize the unique properties of light traveling through fiber optic cables to detect and quantify strain caused by environmental or structural changes. Whether it's for aerospace, civil engineering, or robotics, fiber optic strain sensors are indispensable for providing real-time data. Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS), Distributed Temperature and Strain Sensing (DTSS) and Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) are all various types of fiber optic sensing technologies which use the physical properties of light as it travels along a fiber to detect changes in temperature, strain. DAS technology utilises fiber optic cables to capture acoustic signals along the entire length of the cable.
