Plastic Optical Fiber
Plastic optical fiber (POF) (or Polymer optical fibre) is an optical fiber which is made out of plastic. Traditionally PMMA (acrylic) is the core material, and fluorinated polymers are the cladding material.
Plastic Optical Fibers
Plastic optical fibers can be woven into a textile; however, bending of the fibers is an issue during the manufacturing process and also with the end product as mechanical damage causes signal loss
