Structural health monitoring system with the identification of the damage through a device based in augmented reality technology

System for assessing condition and obtaining a quick response of the results of inspection tasks in the maintenance actions of a structural platform, comprising:

• a Structural Health Monitoring System (SHM) comprising a plurality of transducers, including a plurality of sensors or pairs of actuators and sensors, a device to interrogate at least one of said sensors to produce signals, and software to perform analyses for damage identification;
• transponders comprising transducers passive or active;
• a portable device comprising a display window to view and edit images, videos, texts and spreadsheets with computing power to run 3D display with Augmented Reality;
• and
• an application server comprising computing power and memories to store data.

An inspection system for assessing and visualizing structural damage to a structural platform, comprising:

• sensors operatively coupled to or embedded in the structural platform that assess structural damage to or failure of the structural platform;
• a structural health monitoring processor operatively coupled to the sensors, the structural health monitoring processor determining structural damage in response to the sensors;
• at least one RF transponder and associated reader, the transponder and reader determining the position of the structural platform relative to a user augmented relative viewing device;
• the user augmented reality viewing device being operatively coupled to the structural health monitoring processor and/or a database associated therewith, the user augmented reality viewing device including a camera that captures images of the structural platform, the user augmented reality viewing device displaying real world images of the structural platform and virtual indications of determined structural damage that are dependent on the position and orientation of the user augmented reality viewing device relative to the structural platform.
