Smart sensor systems are expected to be a suitable sensing solution for structural health monitoring of infrastructures because such sensors can transfer data via wireless network. In this study, an Imote2 smart sensor system is applied for bridge vibration measurement test. Weather proof housing with solar energy harvesting system is also developed for outdoor measurement. A cold room test of the housing has been done before real bridge measurement. The test bridge is an old pedestrian suspension bridge. Measurement results revealed that the developed solar energy system supplies enough power to a smart sensor. Natural vibration modes of the bridge are detected from free vibration data properly.
