Sensorics and Photonics

The Centre of Excellence in Sensorics and Photonics specialises in advanced solutions for monitoring critical assets using fibre optic technology. Our expertise stems from the integration of cutting-edge technologies, as we lead the development of innovative systems for real-time monitoring of infrastructure and industrial processes. With a tailored approach, we deliver services that ensure operational safety and efficiency, optimising asset management in key sectors. Thanks to our expertise in advanced photonics and signal processing — combined with the use of novel materials, hardware, and software — we are able to develop state-of-the-art monitoring equipment.

    In predictive phase: Health diagnostics and status assessment

    Continuous evaluation of asset conditions, identifying potential risks or failures through data-driven insights and predictive analysis.

    02

    24/7 real-time asset monitoring

    Continuous, real-time monitoring of critical assets to ensure optimal performance and enable the prompt detection of irregularities.

    03

    Operational loads versus damage assessment

    Comparative analysis of operational loads and actual asset wear, enabling damage prediction and life cycle optimisation.

    04

    Digital twin interface design

    Development of interactive interfaces that replicate the real behaviour of assets, facilitating decision-making and predictive analysis.

    05

    Preventive phase: Monitoring of insulation and protection degradation

    Continuous monitoring of the integrity of insulation and protection systems, detecting potential deterioration to prevent catastrophic failures.

    06

    Simulation of critical load versus operating conditions

    Analysis of critical loads in relation to operating conditions, enabling stress scenario forecasting and system capacity optimisation.

    07

    Data collection from inaccessible critical locations

    Acquisition of key information from remote or hard-to-access areas, enhancing visibility and control in critical zones.

    08

    Early alert communication via SCADA

    Real-time generation of early alerts via SCADA systems, supporting preventive decision-making and helping to avert major issues.

    09

    Corrective phase: Fault discrimination

    Classification and prioritisation of faults based on severity, allowing critical issues to be addressed first and ensuring operational continuity.

    10

    Pre-fault localisation

    Preliminary identification of affected components prior to intervention, optimising diagnostic and repair times.

    11

    Fault localisation

    Accurate determination of the fault’s origin, minimising intervention times and preventing further system damage.

    12

    Minimisation of crew movements and enhanced safety

    Minimisation of crew movements contributes to enhanced safety and operational efficiency, particularly in high-risk or hard-to-access environments.

01Critical Asset Monitoring over Fibre Optics

A proven fibre-optic-based solution that enables the anticipation and prevention of failures in critical assets before they occur. Leveraging cutting-edge technologies such as Faraday, Bragg, Brillouin, Raman, and Rayleigh, combined with advanced digitalisation techniques, our systems offer a comprehensive, real-time view of the condition of high-value assets. We monitor and optimise infrastructure performance even in the most challenging environments. Our expertise and commitment to R&D&I—exemplified by the technology developed for the integrated management of CAMOS power cables by RDT Lumiker—demonstrate our capability to monitor any asset with precision.
