ABSTRACT:
In an optical fiber ribbon fusion-splicing device, a TV camera is set such that the horizontal direction of an image sensor contained in the TV camera in which direction a horizontal scanning is carried out and the resolution of the image sensor is higher than that in the vertical direction in which a vertical scanning is carried out is a direction perpendicular to the coaxial direction of a pair of grooved supporting members for supporting fibers of a pair of optical fiber ribbons to be fusion-spliced. Thus, when the fibers of the pair of optical fiber ribbons are set on the supporting members in the coaxial direction thereof, the horizontal direction of the image sensor is perpendicular to the coaxial direction of the fibers of the optical fiber ribbon. Since, therefore, misalignment of the fibers is involved in the high resolution direction, the misalignment can be detected with high precision, without decreasing the power factor of the image sensor.
