Abstract: A vibration detection system is provided. The vibration detection system includes a radio frequency (RF) source, a vibration sensor coupled to the RF source and configured to receive an RF signal supplied by the RF source and radiate RF energy, and a computing device coupled to said RF source and configured to calculate vibrational energy induced to the vibration sensor based on an impedance of the vibration sensor.

Abstract: A fiber Bragg grating multi-point temperature sensing system comprises a fiber sensing cable package and a plurality of clamping devices distributed along an inner surface of a wall in a circumferential direction for securing the fiber sensing cable package. The fiber sensing cable package comprises a fiber Bragg grating based sensing cable comprising at least one optical fiber, a plurality of Bragg gratings inscribed in the optical fiber, and a fabric layer and a sheath tube surrounding the optical fiber. The multi-point fiber temperature sensing system comprises a light source for transmitting light to the Bragg gratings based sensing cable package, and a detector module receiving reflected signal. Each clamping device comprises a radiation tee and defines at least one mounting hole for securing the fiber sensing cable.

Abstract: A display assembly for use with a monitoring system is provided. The display assembly includes a communication interface that is configured to receive radiation data indicative of at least a dosage level for the radiation. Moreover, the display assembly also includes a processor that is coupled to the communication interface, wherein the processor is programmed to generate at least one image representative of the radiation data. The display assembly also includes a display media coupled to the processor, wherein the display media is configured to present the image to a user in real-time. The display assembly is positioned against the user such that the display assembly is movable with the user and the user is enabled to continuously monitor the radiation within a location while the user moves about the location.

Abstract: A method for assembling a Fabry-Perot interferometer includes depositing a first metal layer on an end portion of a ferrule, depositing a second metal layer on a back portion of a die, placing the first metal layer and the second metal layer in contact with each other with respective first and second orifices aligned with respect to each other, and bonding the ferrule to the die by thermo compression. The resulting interferometer includes a glass die with a cavity, a silicon diaphragm disposed over the opening of the cavity and bonded to the glass die, a ferrule bonded to the glass die by thermo compression with the first and second orifices being aligned to each other, and an optical fiber inserted through the other end of the ferrule in direct contact to a back portion of the die and aligned with the first orifice.
