Claim 0:
1. A leak detection system for a membrane, the system comprising:
a non-permeable pool membrane that is flexible;
a plurality of printed sensors configured to obtain membrane measurements at a plurality of locations of the membrane;
the plurality of sensors comprise humidity sensors, temperature sensors and strain sensors;
the plurality of sensors include one or more location identification tags;
conductive wires formed in the membrane and connected to the plurality of sensors; and
the sensors are arranged as a grid;
a control circuit connected to the conductive wires and configured to:
receive a plurality of membrane measurements for the plurality of locations; and
compare obtained measurements with a threshold value; determine a plurality of humidity readings based on the plurality of membrane measurements; and
determine if damage is present at the plurality of locations based on the plurality of humidity readings.
