RTDT Laboratories designs ultra-thin, lightweight wireless sensor patches that integrate microelectronic sensors and proprietary algorithms to capture real-time aerodynamic and structural data from wind turbine blades. The patches measure parameters such as aerodynamic pressure, acceleration, vibration, mechanical load and temperature, synchronize timestamps, and transmit data wirelessly to a gateway and then to the cloud to build a digital twin of the blade. Their software suite performs calibration, local and global analyses (including blade kinematics and pressure coefficients), visual analyses and decision recommendations for control, design optimization and maintenance. The patches attach with removable tape without drilling, are offered in two sizes (400×160×4 mm and 160×160×4 mm), and include photovoltaic cells and intelligent battery management for ultra-low-power operation. RTDT was founded in 2022 as an ETH Zurich spin-off by Imad Abdallah, Aris Mukherjee and Konstantinos Tatsis and is pursuing pilot implementations and commercial deployments in the wind-energy sector with a target for large-scale rollout by early 2027.
