This
Industrial Fiber Optics kit "favorite" may have earned more
high grades and scholastic honors for student science projects than any
other. For students and experimenters alike, the Optical Voice Link is
the ideal introduction for those first learning about the marvels, mysteries
and science of light transmission through optical fiber. There is something
fascinating, indeed, about hearing your own voice, after it has been converted
into light and then coupled into, through, and out of an optical fiber.
The Optical Voice
Link is suitable for science projects; home projects for the hobbyist;
short audio fiber optic curriculums for schools; inexpensive classroom
demonstrations; hands-on industrial training; and voice transmission in
critical electrical isolation applications.
