Vibration Monitoring by TV-Holography — a Diagnostic Tool in the Conservation of Historical Murals

  • Conference paper
Optics and Lasers in Biomedicine and Culture

Abstract

A TV-holography system is designed to monitor detached plaster areas in historical murals. Defects in the wall respond to sound irradiation by vibrations. These are detected optically. A feature of the system is the enhanced sensitivity obtained by reference wave modulation. Experimental results obtained at a historical site show very good agreement with data gained by the traditional percussion method.
