Non‐contact optical displacement sensing

Abstract

Looks at the use of non‐contact displacement and vibration sensors and notes their value for difficult sensing measurements. Mentions various situations which may dictate the use of a non‐contact sensor. Focuses on fibre‐optic sensors and laser triangulation sensors. Concludes that practical uses for such devices are rapidly expanding.
