Augmented Reality Visualization of Fiber Bragg Grating Sensor Data for Aerospace Application

Over the last decade, the use of Augmented Reality (AR) in engineering applications has grown exponentially. In the aerospace sector, this technology is attracting growing interest in several applications, ranging from monitoring, maintenance, and data visualization. This study falls into the latter type of applications and aims to present innovative software for visual monitoring systems using fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors via Microsoft HoloLens. Sensory data is presented to the user through a graph visualization. The software has been tested for temperature and strain measurements applied on a specific test bench, proving valuable for aerospace testing.
