No longer a novelty lighting scheme for pools and fountains, modern fiber-based can serve a variety of applications. Once relegated to underwater environments, fiber optic (FO) lighting has made its ...

FULLERTON, Calif. - A test of fiber-optic lighting technology in refrigerated display cases at an Albertsons store here indicated that the technology consumed one-third as much energy as fluorescent ...

Designers of composites are learning that if they are to be able to guarantee component and system performance, repeatability and reliability, it is critical that they have access to more sensor and ...

Industrial sensors using fiber-optic cables often have a role sensing small targets or working under conditions that would hamper other types of sensors. Fiber-optic cables contain thin strands of ...

Light powers everything from communications to sensing, yet even tiny imperfections can scatter it and weaken signals. To address this, a team led by the University of Bath—working with the University ...

For more than 20 years, RSL Fiber Systems has been an innovator and industry leader in advanced fiber optic lighting, illumination, and safety systems for military and commercial applications. RSL ...

Fiber optic transmission products are no newcomer to security—they’ve been in use in the market for some 25 years. What the integrator needs to know is that what once was a very complicated technology ...

Fiber optics provides a transmission medium that surpasses coax cable in many ways, especially for long transmission runs. But now with HD-SDI, the need for high-frequency capacity and low loss brings ...
