Abstract: An optical probe includes an optical housing, a transmitting lens and a receiving lens. The optical housing extends from a proximate end to an opposing distal end. The transmitting lens is disposed at the distal end and is configured to output a first transmitted signal beams having a first transmission axis and a second transmitted beam having a second transmission axis that is different from the first transmission axis. The receiving lens is disposed at the distal end and configured to receive the first and second reflected signal beams corresponding respectively to the first and second transmitted signal beams. The optical housing has formed therein a transmitting optical channel configured to communicate an input optical signal from the proximate end to the transmitting lens. A receiving optical channel separated from the transmitting optical channel communicates the first and second reflected signal beams to the proximate end.

Abstract: A probe adapter includes an adapter body including a probe aperture and a slot. The probe adapter further includes a driver slidably mounted within the slot and slidable between a first position and a second position. The driver includes a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The first end includes a ramped recess extending in a direction from the first end toward the second end. The probe adapter further includes a threaded fastener configured to contact the second end of the driver so as to retain the driver in the first position.

Abstract: A low profile un-lensed non-intrusive stress measurement system probe may comprise a housing comprising a first channel and an optical face, a first hypotube disposed within the first channel and coupled at a sensing aperture in the optical face, and a plurality of optical fibers disposed within the first hypotube, wherein the first hypotube executes a bend between 45° and 90° within the housing.
