New sensor to diagnosticate damage in industrial machinery by ultrasounds
Researchers from MCIA group at Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), have developed wireless sensors to detect minor failure in industrial machinery by emitting ultrasonic waves, and thus, trace serious damage before it occurs. The team is studying to apply the innovation in biomedicine to prevent bone fractures.
The team coordinated by Luis Romeral, which also involves the Fundació CTM Centre Tecnològic and other companies and institutions from Ireland, Estonia, Poland and Romania, has developed all the electronics that forms the body of the sensor, an autonomous device powered by energy from the environment (thermal, mechanical or vibration sources). The team is also responsible for the signal processing algorithms for the detection and identification of failure.
