Özet

Measuring the vibration frequency of structures with image processing methods is one of the non-contact measurement methods. However, the frequency to be measured should be lower than the camera capture speed. In this study, a method was developed to extract and to compare pattern characteristics of data acquired from a pixel of a low-speed camera. At the first stage, images of a rotating disk were recorded at known frequencies to find out the camera's response. After that, distinctive features were extracted both from the raw and clustered intensity data acquired from the pixels of the recorded images. At the second stage, pixel intensity data of a rotating disk with an unknown frequency was also recorded with the same camera. Similarly, features were extracted from these data, and they were compared with the features at known frequencies. A frequency range was found for the unknown frequency value in this way. Finally, the unknown frequency value was estimated by interpolation in the frequency range. The method was verified on an experimental setup, and five unknown frequency values were successfully estimated. Consequently, higher frequencies than the capture speed of the camera were correctly estimated using the developed method. On the other hand, it was also noticed that the clustering of the discrete intensity data was also significant.
