Due to their unique characteristics, fiber Bragg grating sensors have found application in many fields, such as in Civil and Geotechnical Engineering, Aerospace, Energy and Oil & Gas Industries.
Monitoring solutions based on this technology have proven particularly cost effective when applied to large scale structures where hundreds of sensors must be deployed for long term measurement of different physical parameters. Fiber Bragg gratings are also the most reliable solution in some harsh environment applications where the sensors are submitted to extreme conditions.
