Revolutionizing Structural Monitoring Technology
Our model-based design approach provides the means to create an extremely precise measurement device by integrating a small number of relatively inexpensive components yielding a highly differentiated measurement solution.
The POD projects a Laser beam onto a point on the surface of a structure forming a small spot of light. This spot of light is diffusely reflected onto an optical detector to enable precise measurement of dynamic displacement, range of excursion (thus amplitude), and sweep-rate (thus frequency).
(Think of the POD as an extremely sensitive, high-bandwidth, active-optical stethoscope and an extremely precise displacement measurement device.)

Advanced Structural Analysis Solutions
Innovative High-Res Structural Monitoring
ConcurrentData is leading the innovation of active, non-contacting observation technology enabling extremely high-resolution analysis and monitoring of structural behavior.
Unique Insights into Structural Behavior
Our team's expertise in embedded systems, applied mathematics, and physics have allowed us to develop a unique approach to observing mechanical oscillations, allowing users to gain powerful insights into the behavior of structures.
Parametric Observation Device Technology
Our Parametric Observation Device (POD) technology is based upon the projection of a beam or beams of light onto a surface and observation of the consequent reflection from the surface of a structure under excitation to observe mechanical oscillations.
High-Fidelity Modal Analysis with POD
POD technology enables multi-dimensional vibrational analysis of structures thereby enabling high-fidelity modal analysis, modelling and simulation.
