ABSTRACT:
An illuminator system for the interior of buildings provides natural sunlight illumination. The system comprises a sunlight collector mounted on the building's roof, such as a large condenser lens or a reflector, to focus the sunlight at a focal point. A transparent end plate, at the focal point, transmits the condensed sunlight to the exterior end of a thin and flexible optical conductor, such as a polymer core fiber optic cable. The conductor extends through the roof to an exterior room and terminates in a light dispersing illuminator which illuminates the room.
