This document provides an overview for the evaluation of the GOM ARAMIS 6M Essential Line (GOM Gmbh, Germany), an optical measurement system that uses digital image correlation to track surface deformation of an object during an experiment and computes the resultant strain data. Different experimental test methods, such as, a simple cantilever beam test, a tensile test and a 3-Point bending test had been performed to analyse the hardware (resolution, measuring fields and measurement errors), the digital image correlation and the GOM Correlate evaluation software. The application of the software is done by a 4-point bending test of a fibre-reinforced plastic tube, to determine experimentally its deformation behaviour. This document presents some key aspects for the use of ARAMIS obtained through the distinct experiments performed.
