ABSTRACT:
Apparatus generating a line of light includes a light source, such as an incandescent lamp. A condensing lens is interposed between the lamp and the receiving end of an optical fiber cable for applying the light of the lamp to the cable. The discharge end of the optical fiber cable is flattened into a linear configuration, one or a few fibers thick. The discharge end of the optical fiber cable is coupled to a light beam projector containing a lens focusing and projecting a plane of light. The plane of light forms a line when applied to a patient or other object. A plurality of optical fiber cables and projectors may be coupled to the lamp to provide a pattern of lines.
