Abstract:
A method of analyzing a structural condition of a machine is described. The method includes determining a position of a portion of a machine, a rotating shaft, a fluid transfer system, or a reciprocating machine in operation; collecting an image of the portion with an image collector; synchronizing the determined position of the portion with the collected image of the portion; amplifying the synchronized image; and storing the amplified image to a memory. Related apparatuses, systems, storage media, techniques and articles are also described.
