Dual Axis Fiber Optic Sensor Educational Kit
The Blue Road Research Dual Axis Fiber Optic Sensor Educational and Product Development Kit* includes supplies that provide the user with exposure to fiber optic sensing using Bragg grating sensors. The equipment included in the kit provides tools for gaining experience in handling optical components and experimenting with multi-parameter strain or simultaneous strain and temperature measurements.
- features
- Kit includes dual axis sensors with alignment tabs
- System components allow selection between orthogonal polarization states
- System can also be used to experiment with single axis sensors
- applications
