A Polymer Optical Fiber Fuel Level Sensor: Application to Paramotoring and Powered Paragliding

A low-cost intensity-based polymer optical fiber (POF) sensor for fuel level measurements in paramotoring and powered paragliding is presented, exploiting the advantages of the optical fiber sensing technology. Experimental results demonstrate that the best option can be performed by stripping the f...
