Abstract: A novel large strain sensor is designed and fabricated by radially mounting a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) onto an annular elastic element. The sensor responds to strain in a single direction

The fiber and the Bragg grating technology can be controlled pretty well today and represent no problem any more. The main problem comes from the requirement to induce the strain precisely into the fiber.

Because FBG sensors can measure strain (and not displacement) they also provide the superior advantages of the strain measuring principle, as metal foil strain gages do.
