Intelligent membrane systems and methods

A leak detection system for a membrane, the system comprising:

• a non-permeable pool membrane that is flexible;
• a plurality of printed sensors configured to obtain membrane measurements at a plurality of locations of the membrane;
• the plurality of sensors comprise humidity sensors, temperature sensors and strain sensors;
• the plurality of sensors include one or more location identification tags;
• conductive wires formed in the membrane and connected to the plurality of sensors;
• and
• the sensors are arranged as a grid;
• a control circuit connected to the conductive wires and configured to:
• receive a plurality of membrane measurements for the plurality of locations;
• and
• compare obtained measurements with a threshold value;
• determine a plurality of humidity readings based on the plurality of membrane measurements;
• and
• determine if damage is present at the plurality of locations based on the plurality of humidity readings.
