Adaptive Spatial Resolution Enables Focused Fiber Optic Sensing

This advanced fiber optic sensing innovation developed at NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center offers a unique combination of high-resolution processing and flexibility. The algorithm was originally developed to enhance Armstrong’s multi-patented Fiber Optic Sensing System (FOSS). With over 2,000 sensors per fiber, FOSS enables thousands of high-resolution measurements at once including strain, shape, temperature, pressure, and more.
