<\/i><\/i><\/span>OPTOgrip \u2013 Milestone on the way to non-contact skid resistance measurement<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

Together with RWTH Aachen University, QuellTech GmbH and LEHMANN + PARTNER GmbH, the joint project \u201cOPTOgrip \u2013 a fast optical measuring system for the assessment of the skid resistance of road surfaces\u201d involved the development of a new type of high-resolution laser sensor and its optimization for use in non-contact, high-speed skid resistance measurement.<\/p>\n

The project was funded by the Federal Highway Research Institute as part of the research program \u201eInnovationsprogramm Stra\u00dfe\u201c of the Bundesanstalt f\u00fcr Stra\u00dfenwesen (German Federal Highway Research Institute).<\/p>\n

The comparison between conventional, in-contact SKM skid resistance measurementa and non-contact OPTOgrip measurements was carried out using the IWS\u2019s own SKM measurement vehicle, which was equipped with the high-resolution laser OPTOgrip sensor beside the tyre-based SKM measuring mechanism and other supplementary components for validating the measurement system and evaluating the measurement data.<\/p>\n

Dr.-Ing. J\u00fcrgen Schmidt was able to present the successful evaluation of the measurement results obtained to the members of the FGSV committees \u201cAA 4.3\u201d and \u201cAK 4.3.3\u201d at a special meeting on the topic of \u201cNon-contact skid resistance\u201d on July 7, 2022 in the premises of the DMAN in Celle Castle.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/i><\/i><\/span>The new SKM measuring vehicle had proved its worth during its first measuring prioject in the south of France<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>
\n

New requirements within the scope of research and development projects made it necessary to set up a new SKM measuring vehicle. The measuring vehicle, designed for internal testing and comparative measurements as well as expert investigations, is equipped with an SKM measuring mechanism and a texture measuring system consisting of three laser sensors for determining the texture depth in the right and left-hand rolling lane as well as in the middle of the lane.<\/p>\n

The measuring vehicle successfully performed its first measurement project in the south of France in December 2019.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
