ABSTRACT:
A fiber optic light transfer device with variable resolution comprises a plurality of optical fibers arranged at one end thereof as a series of spaced, parallel fiber ribbons. The ribbons are supported in a locator body having a plurality of spaced, parallel slots therein each defined by first, second and third support surfaces and an end surface of the locator body. Each of the slots includes one or more projections selectively spaced along the first support surface for supporting the associated fiber ribbon in the slot such that one or more of the fibers therein are are in a spaced relationship. Preferably, the fiber optic light transfer device includes "n" parallel fiber ribbons each including "n" optical fibers.
