ODiSI-B 5.0 offers enhanced performance and
ruggedness for high resolution measurements of strain and
temperature, providing improved characterization of composite
components and structures
Luna Innovations Incorporated (NASDAQ: LUNA) today launched a
significant upgrade to its ODiSI (Optical Distributed Sensor
Interrogator) strain and temperature sensing platform. Luna’s ODiSI
technology uses a lightweight, flexible, inexpensive,
easy-to-install, distributed fiber sensor to provide critical
stress, strain and temperature information to designers and
manufacturers working with advanced materials. Luna’s ODiSI
platform provides a number of advantages over traditional strain
gages and thermocouples: distributed multi-point sensing;
ultrahigh-definition measurements; reduced cost of sensor
installation; and the ability to embed the sensor within composite
structures. ODiSI provides these benefits with a per-sensor cost
that is significantly lower than traditional foil strain gages.
The ODiSI-B 5.0 enhancements are the result of continued
engineering development in response to customer feedback and
include: more robust sensing and ruggedized cables and connectors;
high-definition and high-speed sensing options; data visualization
and CAD integration; and strain sensors with NIST-traceable
calibration.
“One of our key growth strategies is to become the leading
provider of sensing systems for testing composites and other
advanced materials,” said My Chung, president and chief executive
officer of Luna. “We introduced the ODiSI platform to address this
market and now, through ongoing engineering development, we’re
launching enhancements that offer greater performance and new
capabilities. Luna is committed to evolving our solution and
responding to the measurement needs of customers in our target
markets, particularly those where composites are becoming
commonplace like aerospace and automotive.”
The ODiSI-B 5.0’s development comes at a time that the aerospace
and automotive markets continue to move toward the use of advanced
materials. Unlike steel or aluminum, composite construction is
non-uniform and requires new measurement technologies to ensure
safety and reliability.
Users of the current ODiSI-B should contact Luna to discuss
upgrade options to the enhanced system.
