Abstract (EN): : Recent progress in image acquisition and analysis systems opened the door to the application in structural vibration monitoring. The proposed system is targeted to operate together with traditional vibration monitoring systems providing additional valued information or to operate in situations were the number of points to analyze would be impossible or costly with the existing systems. Ambient vibration and forced vibration subjects are analyzed together providing means for correlation of the structure vibration itself with its sources. This paper describes the major characteristics of the developed vision system and exemplifies the major advantages and drawbacks based on the presented applications concerning cable vibrations in a cable-stayed bridge and other kinds of bridges.
