The Q2 Laser Doppler Vibrometer >>
The equipment used for the test is the Ommatidia LiDAR Q2 Laser Doppler vibrometer based on FMCW Laser RADAR Technology (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave).
The Q2 system has two operating modes:
• Laser Doppler vibrometer mode: measures the velocity or displacement of a surface, without contact.
• Metrology mode: measures the distance to the sensor and generates a point cloud.
The system features multichannel coherent detection, of 65 simultaneous laser beams for signal acquisition.
And, performs a full-field of view measurement by scanning the azimuthal angel of the sensor head.
Thanks to the use of a dedicated photonic integrated circuit (PICs), the Q2 analyzes multiple optical channels in parallel, enabling the simultaneous three-dimensional measurement of vibrations and displacements.
