Abstract
Systems and methods are provided to perform PdM surveys using data acquisition units which scan screen multiple locations where equipment or structures to be evaluated are present. Video data will be acquired and processed to measure translational and vibratory motion and additional data will be collected from other camera, sensors or via data links. The motion present in the equipment or structures under test and the supplemental data will be automatically evaluated to detect suspect equipment conditions and to minimize the amount of video data maintained on the data acquisition unit and transmitted back the central PdM server for review by a PdM analyst and long term archival.
