Deflection

Description

This innovative mobile application is designed to measure the deflection of railway masts at the top with high precision using your smartphone’s built-in gyroscope. By leveraging advanced sensor technology, the app provides a cost-effective and efficient solution for railway infrastructure monitoring and maintenance.
How It Works

The app utilizes the gyroscope sensor in your mobile device to detect angular changes in the mast. When the phone is securely placed on top of the railway mast, it continuously records tilt variations caused by external forces such as wind, passing trains, or structural shifts. These angular changes are then converted into millimeter-level deflection measurements using advanced algorithms.
Key Features

Accurate Deflection Measurement – Converts angular tilt data into precise deflection values in millimeters.
Real-Time Monitoring – Displays live deflection angle readings for immediate assessment.
Easy-to-Use Interface – Simple setup and intuitive design for quick and efficient measurements.
Customizable Settings – Adjustable parameters to suit various mast heights and conditions.

Applications

Railway Infrastructure Maintenance – Helps engineers and inspectors detect early signs of mast instability.
Structural Health Monitoring – Assists in assessing the impact of environmental factors on railway masts.
Safety & Compliance – Ensures railway structures meet regulatory standards by providing reliable deflection data.

This app provides a modern, accessible, and highly accurate method for monitoring railway mast deflection without requiring expensive specialized equipment.
