Home / What are some examples of flexible fiber optic sensors
Optical fibers can be made into interferometric sensors such as fiber-optic gyroscopes, which are used in the Boeing 767 and in some car models (for navigation purposes). For example, a thermocouple is a sensor that detects temperature and converts it into an electrical current or voltage. Fiber optic sensors—also known as optical fiber sensors—use optical fibers either as the sensing element or as a medium to transmit sensing signals. Durability and High Reliability: Glass fibers offer durability for extreme conditions; plastic fibers give flexibility. Radiation absorption creates electronic excited states that are trapped by localized defects for extended periods of time.
