Wheelwatch est un système de mesure sans contact pour le contrôle et le monitoring de mouvement de roue pour voiture et camion à 6 degrés de libertés. Cette mesure du mouvement de roue peut se faire sur banc de test ou sur route en temps réel. Cette mesure dynamique de roue peut s’effectuer a grande vitesse. Le système de mesure permet la mesure jusque +- 500Hz. Wheelwatch peut se monter en cascade et mesurer 4 roues en même temps.

Applications typiques de Wheelwatch
- Optical measurement system using a high-speed digital camera
- No mechanical connection between sensor and wheel
- Self-referencing to vehicle coordinate system in real time
- Easy to integrate into test stations
- Very short setup time
- Accurate measurement of all wheel parameters including track, camber inclination, spring travel, steering angle and wheel clearance
- Several wheels or axles can be monitored simultaneously
WheelWatch measures wheel movements in 3D. Vehicle development for optimal driving characteristics WheelWatch provides a revolutionary approach to wheel monitoring. Due to its functional principle, it offers many advantages, facilitates wheel monitoring and delivers more exact measurement results.

Avantages du WheelWatch
WheelWatch with TraceCam F has been developed in close cooperation with the automotive industry, and the system has been designed to provide the features and functionality that are most beneficial for this application.
Précision du Wheelwatch
WheelWatch measures wheel movements for a vehicle traveling at speeds of up to 250km per hour (160mph). The system is also capable of observing extreme driving maneuvers. Points are measured to an accuracy of about ±0.1mm (0.004 in) and angles to an accuracy of about ±0.015°.
Mesure simultanée sur plusieurs roues
Several cameras may be precisely synchronized. WheelWatch may also be synchronized with other measurement devices. In this case, the cameras can either be controlled by an external synchronization signal, or they can deliver the master signal themselves for all sensors applied in the test. In addition, each individual measurement value is time stamped. Thus, the application on several wheels and with other measurement sensors is possible.
Intégration dans un centre de test
The WheelWatch system is particularly suited for integration into vehicle test stations. Data acquisition between numerous cameras over multiple axles and even with other sensor types may be precisely synchronized. WheelWatch saves the measurement data digitally, making these suitable for database storage. Data may be converted from digital to analog during tests if real time machine control is required. An optional data router allows the computer to control WheelWatch system functions via TCP/IP.
