ABSTRACT:
A process for manufacturing an optical fiber light sensor or panel wherein the optical fibers and the panel or sensor are formed simultaneously employing a perforated platen. The platen is covered with a layer of thermofusible product material so that the material when melted will flow through the holes in the platen to create a series of short vertical fibers. The fibers are then drawn to a desired length and sheathed before being gathered into a bundle.
