Abstract

The present disclosure may be embodied as a system for monitoring a belt. The system includes a sensor configured to be mounted near a belt. The sensor is configured to detect a profile of the belt. A processor is in electronic communication with the sensor. The processor is programmed to receive an electrical signal from the sensor; detect a repeating pattern in the electrical signal; and detect a deviation from the repeating pattern. In some embodiments, detecting a deviation from the repeating pattern further includes calculating a rolling average profile. The rolling average profile may, for example, an average of the most recent 5-100 cycles of the repeating pattern. In some embodiments, the deviation from the repeating pattern exceeds a predetermined deviation threshold for a duration of a cycle of the repeating pattern.
