So again, we can tell like this, something’s up with this blade. And as you’ll hear in this in right, from the get go in the podcast, you know, they got the idea from that winter oven, technicians could hear the difference themselves. So if you’re, you know, when Tim gets struck by lightning, if it has leading edge erosion a couple years later, it’s gonna sound different. And then over time, it’s comparing that baseline to the new normal. Every time it goes whoosh, whoosh, it’s, you know, it’s listening to that sound creates a baseline. So it’s preventing any excess noise just like you see on our microphones here, the the the foam pop filter, and so it listens to the wind turbine blades as they come through their cycle.

And a large part of that dome is just the windscreen. But you know, so the ping monitor system, if you’re unfamiliar, it’s, it’s a little dome about this, it looks like at about the size of a, like a fire alarm in your home. All those things seem to be like the go to for assessing damage. Yeah, it is a really cool system, because you think of you know, like drone technology is becoming ubiquitous, right? Like camera technology in general. Because not only do we get to see the technology, Matthew actually shows you all the innards of these of this ping monitor, but also describes how the system works. And if you own or operate wind turbines or repair wind turbines, this is a good a good one. But no one’s done it until we got to ping and it’s it’s a fascinating device. And talking to Matthew is so fascinated, it seems like it’s such an obvious solution. So you know, if your wind turbine blades are having problems, it’s the thing about this. Well, ping monitor has a great audio recording system, basically data data analyzer system that just magnetically stick to the side of the wind turbine and takes really important data. Allen, really interesting conversation with Matthew today, what were some of your takeaways from it? On today’s show, we’ve got a great guest, Matthew stead, CEO of ping services is here to talk about their ping monitor system.

The Ping Monitor is so advanced, it can even differentiate and predict which types of damage have occurred–or are occurring–with high accuracy.

The Ping system compares the baseline sound to each pass of the turbine, and alerts wind farm operators when changes are detected. Matthew Stead, CEO of Ping Services, joined us to talk about the Ping Monitor, a device that attaches to the bottom of a wind turbine, listening to the sound of the blades as they rotate past.
