Multidirectional bending sensor using capillary fibers and machine learning for real-time applications

In this article, the design and implementation of a bidirectional curvature sensor based on a fiber-optic interferometer are presented. The sensor structure was fabricated by fusing a capillary fiber fragment between single-mode fibers (SMFs), with the addition of a long end capillary to promote a l...
