The availability of a suitable data acquisition sensor network is a key implementation issue to link models with real world structures. Non-contact displacement sensors should be preferred since they do not change the system properties. A two-dimensional vision-based displacement measurement sensor is the focus of this contribution. In particular, the perspective distortion introduced by the angle between the optic axis of the camera and the normal to the plane in which the structural system deforms is considered. A two-dimensional affine transformation is utilized to eliminate the distortion from the recorded to the distortion-free image. The results of a laboratory experiment show the potential of the proposed approach.

Abstract
The availability of a suitable data acquisition sensor network is a key implementation issue to link models with real world structures. Non-contact displacement sensors should be preferred since they do not change the system properties. A two-dimensional vision-based displacement measurement sensor is the focus of this contribution. In particular, the perspective distortion introduced by the angle between the optic axis of the camera and the normal to the plane in which the structural system deforms is considered. A two-dimensional affine transformation is utilized to eliminate the distortion from the recorded to the distortion-free image. The results of a laboratory experiment show the potential of the proposed approach.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
