Abstract
A non-contacting system for visualizing and analyzing periodic movements in machinery includes at least one video acquisition device that acquires sampling data as a video comprising a plurality of video image frames and a data analysis system including processor and memory, and a computer program operating in the processor to filter movements depicted in the video to a specific frequency to normalize the phase in a plurality of objects in the video representing parts or components of the machinery, to compare the movements of such objects which in some embodiments provides for construction of a modified video to visually exaggerate the apparent movement of the at least one of the plurality of objects.
