Luna Technologies Fiber Optic Shape Sensing
Short Summary
Luna's fiber optic shape sensing technology makes use of a single multi-core optical fiber to calculate the location of the fiber continuously along the sensor.
Abstract
Luna’s fiber optic shape sensing technology makes use of a single multi-core optical fiber to calculate the location of the fiber continuously along the sensor. This video shows an implementation of the technology configured as a fully flexible coordinate measurement machine. It also shows a preview of Luna’s long range shape capability.
