A system for monitoring a mechanism comprising a damper and a spring, said system comprising a processing circuitry configured to:
- input image data of at least one section of a spring associated with said damper from at least one optical sensor mounted within a body of said damper;
- and
- provide an indicator of a health of said damper based on an analysis of said image data.
The system of claim 1, wherein said indicator comprises at least one of:
- maintenance instructions;
- a time to failure estimation;
- a failure alert;
- a trend towards failure;
- and
- operating instructions in response to a detected failure.
A computer-implemented method for monitoring a mechanism comprising a damper and a spring, comprising:
- receiving, by at least one processor, image data of at least one section of a spring associated with said damper from at least one optical sensor mounted within a body of said damper;
- and
- providing, by the at least one processor, an indicator of a health of said damper based on an analysis of said image data.
The method of claim 19, wherein said optical sensor is mounted within a body of said damper
