Abstract

A rotating scanner prototype wich allows to multiplex a number of optical fiber sensors is described. In order to alleviate radial and axial tolerances, the device makes use of quarter pitch graded index lenses. Considerations on insertion losses are made. The system has been tested by using thermochromic temperature sensors. Details about design and experimental results are reported.
