This work presents the first navigation-grade interferometric air-core fibre optic gyroscope, enabled by advanced antiresonant hollow core fibers. This long-sought achievement paves the way for ...

Two of the most common types of fiber optic cables used in modern networking are multimode and single-mode fiber optics. Multimode fiber optic cable is designed to carry multiple modes (or rays) of ...

Carried out using standard fiber optic infrastructure, the network uses two types of quantum key distribution (QKD) to demonstrate a resilient and future-proof network, a press release said.

The Ukrainian military continues to grow its arsenal of drones, with 20 models of strike UAVs controlled via an optic fiber entering service since the beginning of 2025, Ukrainian President Volodymyr ...

Fiber-optics are immune to this. Its operation is ingenious and simple: the drone has a built-in reel with a cable, which can be between three and 15 miles long. If, during flight, the cable becomes ...

Micro-optics are optical systems that are between a few micrometres and a millimetre in size. This includes small lenses or arrays of lenses, or optical fibres with a microscale core diameter.

In this article, we’ll explore how fiber optic sensors work, the different types you’ll come across, where they’re being used, and what’s next for this powerful technology. How Do Fiber Optic Sensors ...

A router and internet switch are seen in East Derry, N.H., in 2018. Fiber optic internet provider HyperFiber announced plans for a $31.5 million high-speed network in St. Petersburg. [ Associated ...

Equipped with portable Urban Search and Rescue tools, life detection devices and fiber-optic scopes, they are ready to conduct swift rescue missions in affected areas, it said. Additionally, three ...

Fiber optic plans can be hard to find, so it is good to have options. These are the best fiber internet providers based on key factors like speed, data, availability and price. As the best high ...

A new method based on optical interferometry, to monitor structural damage to buildings hit by earthquakes in real time, is the outcome of the Foresight research project, led by the Politecnico di ...
