Abstract:Key point detection has become more relevant in many industries. From maintenance to development of materials. The usage of this technology is not equally distributed. Some sectors have been more integrated with this technique than others. The bridge maintenance sector still uses IMU(Inertial movement unit) sensors for their inspection of critical points on bridges. This is quite outdated since for large bridges many IMU sensors are needed. We made an application which can estimate the movement of critical points using a video taken from a smartphone. This will aid in more efficient performance and lower the cost of bridge maintenance. Since less to no IMU sensors will be needed to perform the check up. As IMU sensors can take a couple of hours to be placed and removed from the bridge. Their data needs to be progressed and calibrated which could take a couple. In the future, this application could replace the IMU sensors completely and result in efficient and less time consuming bridge maintenance.
