Requirements for transport and infrastructure are rising continuously. Roads, rails, bridges, tunnels and other traffic surfaces must not only withstand high loads but also remain safe and functional over the long term. At the same time, traffic volumes, levels of automation and the need for predictive maintenance are increasing. Precise and continuous acquisition of geometric conditions is therefore becoming a key factor for operational safety and service life.
3D laser profile sensors enable contactless capture of height profiles, cross sections and surface geometries even on large scale and moving structures. Sensor solutions from AT Sensors are designed for use under real environmental conditions and deliver stable measurement results independent of lighting conditions, surface properties or vibrations.
Typical applications in transport and infrastructure support systems for profiling of roadways, geometry inspection of rails and track systems, texture analysis and crack detection of road surfaces, and position and alignment control during construction and maintenance activities. 3D laser profile sensors also provide reproducible real time data in mobile measurement systems and measuring vehicles.
The result is continuous condition assessment that makes maintenance measures plannable, reduces downtime and contributes to the long term safety and availability of transport routes and infrastructure.
