Abstract
In an example embodiment, a structural health monitoring software application provides non-contact structural health monitoring using a video of a structure captured by a video camera. The application selects an area of interest and divides the area of interest into a grid of cells. One or more machine vision algorithms are selected from a set of multiple machine vision algorithms provided by the application, wherein the set of multiple machine vision algorithms includes at least one phase-based algorithm and at least one template matching algorithm. The application applies the one or more machine vision algorithms to the video of the structure to determining a displacement of each cell, detects defects or damage based on differences in the displacement of cells, and displays an indicator of the detected defects or damage in a user interface.
