A rotor blade deflection sensing system including a rotor blade having a first surface, a second surface, a third surface and a fourth surface. At least two fiber optic sensor arrays are mounted to the rotor blade. At least one of the at least two fiber optic sensor arrays is mounted to one of the first surface, the second surface, the third surface and the fourth surface and another of the at least two fiber optic sensor arrays being mounted to another of the first surface, a second surface, a third surface and a fourth surface. A controller is operatively connected to the at least two fiber optic sensor arrays. The controller determines one or more of a flapwise and an edgewise displacement based on inputs from the at least two fiber optic sensor arrays.
