How It Works

FBG-based fiber sensing

PhotonFirst interrogators send light into a fiber and capture it with sensors that reflect the light like a mirror. The light subsequently comes back and the change between the light sent out and the reflected light is translated into a value of measurement, such as temperature, strain, pressure or shape. This is done with the help of the photonics integrated chip (PIC).
