Smart Tools for Precision Strain and Stress Measurement
Strain Stress delivers scalable wireless telemetry for precise, untethered strain sensor data collection
Overview
Wireless telemetry systems for strain sensors are transforming how engineers collect and analyse structural stress data—without the limitations of cables. These systems transmit sensor data in real time to receivers or cloud platforms, making them ideal for applications where mobility, distance, or safety concerns make wired connections impractical. Whether deployed on bridges, rotating machinery, mobile assets, or remote infrastructure, wireless telemetry ensures accurate strain measurement in dynamic and hard-to-access environments.
This webpage explores the core features, functionality, and benefits of modern wireless telemetry systems for strain sensors. Designed for B2B applications across North America, Strain Stress delivers advanced wireless solutions that support reliable data acquisition with low latency and high fidelity. Backed by our experience in wireless integration, ruggedized hardware design, and cloud-enabled analytics, we help clients achieve complete visibility and control over their structural health monitoring strategies.

Case Studies
Case Study 1: Suspension Bridge Wireless Monitoring – Oregon, USA
Strain Stress deployed wireless telemetry systems on a suspension bridge to eliminate cable installation costs and challenges. The system transmitted real-time strain data to the city’s cloud-based infrastructure dashboard during weather and traffic events.
Case Study 2: Aerospace Spin Testing – Arizona, USA
Our wireless transmitters were used in a rotating aircraft component to capture dynamic strain during high-speed testing. Engineers received synchronized, real-time data without the interference that often compromises rotating signal cables.
Case Study 3: Remote Dam Inspection – Manitoba, Canada
A hydropower agency implemented our wireless strain telemetry solution across dam anchors, enabling real-time structural health monitoring without the need for trenching or line-of-sight wiring in challenging terrain.
