Abstract
The proposed work aims at monitoring the vibration of the bridge in virtual instrumentation namely LabVIEW for finding the age of the bridge ensuring the safety. The vibration is measured by the vibration sensor and the output is monitored through the PC by virtual instrumentation method. Embedded Controller is programmed to read the sensor value. The vibration sensor is connected to the Analog-to-Digital Converter of the controller through the signal conditioning. Then, the output is transmitted to the PC through the wireless technology. The firmware for the microcontroller is done by embedded ‘C’ program. The LabVIEW software processes the data from serial port of the PC and takes the appropriate precautions and actions to prevent the bridge from further damage.
