Advanced Telecommunications & Radio-frequency Systems

Proximion designs and manufactures bespoke distributed strain sensors and array sensing systems that are suitable for use in structural health monitoring for bridges, tunnels, dams, and skyscrapers. They measure strain, deflection, and temperature gradients over kilometres of fiber, providing engineers with continuous, high-resolution data to detect potential failures long before they become critical.

The same technology has applications in geotechnical monitoring—for slope stability, foundation movement, and underground construction. Our modern fiber-optic replacements for point sensors simplify installation and reduce maintenance, turning passive fiber networks into active structural diagnostics systems.

Relevant applications:

Distributed strain sensors, array sensors, fiber-optic temperature and load sensors, modern point-sensor replacements.

Examples:

  • Bridge and tunnel structural monitoring — continuous measurement of strain and displacement.
  • Dams and levees — seepage and deformation detection through distributed sensing.
  • Railway infrastructure — track deformation and thermal expansion monitoring.
  • Building and skyscraper stability — embedded sensor arrays for load distribution and vibration.
  • Geotechnical monitoring — slope stability and foundation movement tracking.
