Woven Fiber Optic Backlighting

 

Our patented and proprietary computer controlled looms create variable microbends in the optical fiber as it is woven into a cloth.  In this way, we can ensure that the light is emitted uniformly along the length of backligthing panel.

This cloth is then laminated into layers to form a panel.  The optical fibers coming off of one end of the light emitting portion are then bundled together in a round ferrule and a light source is attached.
