A growing number of enterprises around the world are now commercializing fibre Bragg grating sensors for sensing everything from temperature and pressure to vibration and strain. Duncan Graham-Rowe ...
Optical fibers were proposed for long-distance communications about six decades ago. Soon, researchers discovered that optical fibers could also be ...
As the demand for bandwidth and high-speed transport grows, so does the use of fiber-optic based transport. One of the enabling technologies associated with optical transport are Fiber Bragg gratings ...
Researchers have developed a wearable PDMS sensor that uses a FBG to sense movements. The sensors could be used to monitor wrist, finger or even facial movements. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are ...
