In this study, the contactless measurement method with a optical displacement sensor(ODS, ADNS 9500) was proposed to overcome flaws in a rotary encoder based measurement under particular circumstances, such as a slippage and a case of little rotational inertia. The performance tests of the optical displacement sensor using data acquisition board and National Instruments's LabVIEW program were performed to accomplish accurate displacement measurements and the performance characteristics according to measurement direction, speed, acceleration, height and surface types were discovered through the repetitive tests. The experimental results indicate that, in order to get an accurate in-plane motion, the height(distance between the ODS and the target surface) has to be maintained at the range of 2.4 mm to 3.2 mm and the sensitivity(resolution) should be modified and applied to the formulae for displacement calculation, considering its measurement direction, speed and surface type.

We propose and present a new multiplexed bend loss type single-mode fiber-optic sensor system for displacement measurement in order to measure the displacement of several mm of civil engineering structures such as bridges and buildings. We make a bend loss type fiber-optic sensor for measuring displacements using the signal difference between two reflection signals due to various bend losses generating at a pair of optical connectors by using the optical time domain reflectometer. And we fabricate a multiplexed bend loss type fiber-optic sensor detecting linear displacements of 4 measuring positions of an object by setting these new 4 fiber-optic sensors on a single mode fiber simultaneously. We find that the multiplexed fiber-optics displacement sensor has linearity of 0.9942, maximum displacement of 6 mm, and accuracy of 6% for 4 measuring points.

The probes of fiber optic OTDR (Optical Time Domain Reflectometry) sensor was developed to measure displacements of social infrastructures. This probe was simply constructed with two conventional optical fiber connectors, and a fiber bending part, which transforms displacement to optical loss. When the displacement was affected on the bending loss part, the reflected light intensity of one optical connector was changed. The displacement was determined from this reflected light intensity change of the connector. fiber optic OTDR displacement sensor was developed as the multiplexed type of one fiber line with 5 sensor probes. Multiplexing operation was tested by these 5 sensor probes.

An optical fiber displacement sensor has the advantages of relatively simplicity, cheap, small probe size and immunity against environmental perturbation. The working principle of the sensor is based on the intensity modulation that is detection light intensity reflecting from the surface being measured. This paper presents the mathematical model of displacement measurement mechanism of this sensor type. The theoretical and experimental data are compared to verify the model in describing the realistic approach to sensor design. Finally, the analysis results show that displacement response characteristics such as sensitivity, measuring range are easily modified by principal design parameters such as magnitude of optical Power, diameter of optical fiber core and distance between transmitting fiber and receiving fiber.

Optical triangulation displacement sensors(0TDSs) are widely used for their simple struchlre, high resolution, and long operating range. However, there are several factors that must be taken into account in order to obtain high accuracy and reliability Measurement errors from inclinations a？ an object surface, prohe signal fluctuations generated by speckle effects. power vanation of a light source, electronic noises, and so on. Previous models of OTDSs can not show reasonable behavior as change of surface inclination and shape of light intensity distribution on the detector. In this paper, we propose a new and reasonable modeling for diffise-type OTDSs based on a geometrical optics. To verify propriety of new modeling, we take basic experiments. Shape of light intensity distribution is asymmetric in both simulation result and experimental result. Both simulation result and experimental result show same tendency of light intensity distribution movement as changing surface inclination
