Blade Tip Timing (BTT) technology is concerned with the estimation of turbomachinery blade vibration. Since it is non-contact and non-intrusive, it is significantly more reliable and cost-effective than the conventional alternative (strain gauge systems), resulting in multi-million pounds in cost benefits [1, 2].
