This is taken through a fiber optics microscope. It's down inside the nest.

India has put together a connectivity mission in Africa, using fiber optics and dedicated satellite.

In the beginning you see the ants just kind of engaging with the fiber optics microscope.

This is Symphony Space on 90th Street and Broadway, and the type is interwoven into the stainless steel and backlit with fiber optics.

And finally, I'll give you one last example of free perhaps the most powerful of all. I mentioned fiber optics their abundance tends to make things free.

Business capital includes private companies factories, machines, transport equipment, and information systems. Infrastructure includes roads, railways, power and water systems, fiber optics, pipelines, and airports and seaports.

A woman named Joanna Aizenberg, at Lucent, is now learning to do this in a low temperature process to create these sort of lenses. She's also looking at fiber optics.

Down at the very base of it, there's fiber optics that work better than ours, actually, to move light, but you can tie them in a knot they're incredibly flexible.

And you probably didn't realize it's going to do all these things but full of solenoids, and fiber optics, and computers and all this kind of stuff. The highest resolution out of Japan.

So this is a work that we were very intrigued with, working with the aesthetic of fur embedded with thousands of tiny different sizes of fiber optics, which twinkle like the night sky.

Free is something that comes with digital, because the reproduction costs are essentially free. It comes with IP, because it's such an efficient protocol. It comes with fiber optics, because there's so much bandwidth.

So now we not only have a high fiber bread, but now fiber on top of fiber.

As a result of their collaboration, private industry could develop on its own a series of products that used optics for industrial and medical imaging applications.

You've got bran, which is probably the healthiest part of the bread for us, or the fiber for us because it is just loaded with fiber, for the bran is fiber.

Fiber next generation way of communicating.

You need to eat more fiber.

Consume every fiber of my being!

But silk is versatile and it goes beyond optics.

I say that weakens the moral fiber.

low energy light bulbs, fibre optics and flat screen displays.

Active optics, computer assisted polishing and ion shaping of mirrors, and silicon carbide mirror technology were typical examples of applications of new technologies for astronomical optics manufacturing.

They produce six different types of silk, which is spun together into a fiber, tougher than any fiber humans have ever made.

This object is completely covered by fiber opticals.

The nearest we've come is with aramid fiber.

The cable over there, that's an optical fiber.

And it is all out of carbon fiber.

It is envisaged that without adaptive optics, the kill range of the laser could be about 240 km and with adaptive optics this could be extended to about 400 km.

That's a sea sponge that has a fiber optic.

And the next generation fiber will be simply magic.

Around her neck is a rope of twisted fiber.

Around her neck is a rope of twisted fiber.

that you detest with every fiber of your being?

And she's an optometrist in St. Petersburg, and she plays with optics.

And this fiber turns a wire attached to an LED.

I love my country with every fiber of my being.

It'll tell us about their metals. We can find out about their optics.

You're allowed to just hate them with every fiber of your being.

Draws a groovy rotating fiber optic lamp. Written by Tim Auckland 2005.

So, we modified the optics of the camera in order to mimic the baby's visual acuity.

In fact, this flagelliform fiber can actually stretch over twice its original length.

For example, we use a lot of carbon fiber composites in sporting goods.

In fact, this flagelliform fiber can actually stretch over twice its original length.

And this animation here shows you one example of the techniques that we use, called adaptive optics.

REPORT ON THE UNITED NATIONS INTERNATIONAL CENTRE FOR THEORETICAL PHYSICS CONFERENCE ON OPTICS IN SPACE SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

18. Each system by itself is the equivalent of a terrestrial fibre optics system and has its own advantages.
