The Strain Gage SG-01 from FBGS is the fiber optic equivalent of an electrical strain gage. It can be mounted straight onto the surface of a structure with the help of an adhesive. Like this, the fiber sensor makes direct contact with the surface and therefore accurately measures the strain at the surface.
