Optical fiber sensors comprise a light source optical fiber external transducer and photodetector.
Fiber optic temperature sensor in biomedical instrumentation.
Many other advantages of fiber optic sensors are also leveraged for these applications including the ability to monitor physical parameters over long distances the lack of electrical current needed at the sensing locations the ability to multiplex many sensors on a single fiber and the ability to sense multiple parameters on a single.

Optical fibers find applications beyond electronic data cable replacement though which means they will be a growing presence in the field of industrial instrumentation above and beyond their use as serial data communication cables.
Fiber optic pressure sensors.
Some optic instruments were developed as far back as the nineteenth century.

Smart structure health monitoring.
Sensuron offers compact fiber optic sensing systems for the medical aerospace and energy industries.
It is based on the principle of interference between the beams emerging out from the reference fiber and the fiber kept in the measuring environment.
Fiber optic strain sensors.
Geotechnical fiber optic monitoring solutions.
Fiber optic temperature sensors.
They sense by detecting the modulation of one or more of the properties of light that is guided inside the fiber intensity wavelength or polarization for instance.
