Characteristics of plastic optical fiber:
1. A single light source can have multiple light emitting points with the same light emitting
characteristics at the same time, which is conducive to use in a wide area configuration.
2. The light source is easy to replace and easy to repair.
3. The projection host and the real light emitting point are transmitted through the optical
fiber, so the projection host can be placed in a safe place with the function of preventing damage.
4. The light at the luminous point is transmitted through the optical fiber, so the emitted
light is free of ultraviolet and infrared light, which can reduce the damage to certain items.
5. Miniaturized light point, light weight, easy to replace and install.
6. It is not affected by electromagnetic interference, so it can be used in special places such as
nuclear magnetic resonance room, radar control room, etc. that require electromagnetic shielding.
7. Its light and electricity are separated.
8. Light can be transmitted flexibly.
9. It can change light color automatically
10. The material of the plastic optical fiber is soft, easy to fold and not fragile,
so it can be easily processed into various patterns.
This is because of these characteristics of plastic optical fiber, so it is more and more popular
in lighting applications.
The terminal emitting plastic optical fiber has a good light guiding effect, so the lighting applications
required in some special scenes are very suitable, such as electricity, explosive, flammable, water
features, swimming pools, basements, museums and so on. Now more and more fields are switching
to plastic optical fiber for lighting, which is also the trend of future lighting development.
