SmartFiber develops a smart miniaturized system which integrates optical fiber sensor technology, nano-photonic chip technology and low power wireless technology.
The smart system will enable for the first time fully embedded structural health monitoring of composites used as structural parts in e.g. wind turbine blades, satellites, airplanes, civil constructions, oil and gas wells, boat hulls, propellers.
