Remote vibrometry

Measure vibration without contact sensors

Capture NVH, modal, and structural dynamics data remotely. Ommatidia combines Laser Doppler Vibrometry, photonic integrated circuits, and Q-series Laser RADAR systems to measure many points at once instead of placing contact sensors one by one.

What changes in the test workflow

The main gain is simpler setup plus denser data. Parallel LDV capture reduces sensor placement, cabling, mass loading, and repeated point-by-point scanning.

01

Less sensor setup

Measure without accelerometer placement, sensor wiring, or added mass on lightweight parts.

02

Parallel capture

Use photonic integrated circuits to capture 65 or 128 measurement points simultaneously.

03

Clearer modal data

Capture denser response across panels, assemblies, structures, or machinery.

04

Faster decisions

Move from measurement to interpretation with fewer setup bottlenecks.

Technology link

Parallel vibrometry depends on integrated photonics

Ommatidia photonic integrated circuits distribute the optical architecture needed for practical multi-point LDV. That is what makes 65 or 128 simultaneous measurement points usable in real test workflows, rather than forcing slow sequential scanning.

Where remote vibrometry fits

Use it when contact instrumentation changes the test, slows preparation, or cannot cover enough of the structure.
