ABSTRACT:
A portable vehicle inspection system including a series of mats into which two lengths of flexible, polymeric side light transmitting optical fiber extend along channels placed near the edges of the mats, and at a distance to be within the tracks of wheels of a vehicle passing thereover, with the polymeric fiber optic including notches and a reflector directed to provide a steady, uniform flood of light up to the underside of a vehicle to be inspected, and between the inspection zone, and the light source, the polymeric optical fiber is covered by an opaque jacket to prevent light from radiating outward.
