ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for detecting at least one of the amplitude, frequency and modes of vibration of a panel is described. Detection is achieved using Moire fringes by employing two diffraction gratings (33 and 38) through the first of which light is projected on to the panel. An array of photodiodes (40) is positioned behind the second diffraction grating (38) which receives light reflected from the panel. Signals from the photodiodes are analyzed in conventional ways to produce the required amplitude, frequency and mode information.
