I assume you're talking about vibration monitoring?

Whatever you call it, it remains useless. The wave spectrum of the vibrations in the cold Montreal Boxster will always be different from a hot Florida spirit driven Boxster. Useless, garbage technology.

Great in a 'static' environment however. Same engine, same oil, same parts, ambient temp.... saved many R&D staffers from 17,000RPM thin-walled block explosions... other than that. Dunno what it could be used for.

Heard the latest McLaren knock sensor had a 700+ page datasheet. Monitoring is the last phase of any implementations. The embedded algorithm those sensors have today is pretty intense - they can also do real-time analysis/perform smart ops. Problem is nobody can apply those in a dynamic environment without them costing millions of dosh anyway Useless.
