Have you ever been to one of the big theaters around the world and spent a little time admiring the often very beautiful auditorium? Wondered how they make the sound work? Or perhaps the scenography? But probably not how the fire detection works or where it is hidden? Read more

The Mine Ventilation Society of South Africa (MVSSA) has published the results of a study where they compare different fire prevention and detection systems for mine conveyor belts. Read more

If you want to monitor physical borders, such as walls and fences, a fiber-optic sensing system is ideal. Read more

Optical ground wire (OPGW) lines are mounted on high-voltage towers. They consist of optical fibers for data communication and conductive wires for connecting high-voltage towers to the ground. Read more

At the German Aerospace Center, they make aerospace parts from advanced fiber composite materials. These are important elements – such as wings and fuselage parts – and they must be flawless, which put high demands on the manufacturing process. Read more

Every day, more than 150,000 cars zoom by the German city of Hamburg on the busy A7 motorway. To avoid congestion and improve traffic flow, the A7 is being expanded from four to six – or even eight – lanes in the urban area of Hamburg Altona. Read more

Steam distribution is of vital importance for the city of Indianapolis. Through the utilization of a LIOS PRE.VENT distributed temperature sensing system, considerable safety issues in the heart of Indianapolis has now been resolved. Read more

In this project, NKT Photonics supplied a LIOS EN.SURE Long Range power cable sensing system to monitor a 50 km long export cable from an offshore wind farm in the North Sea. The cable included a single mode fiber optic cable installed just under the steel armor of the submarine power cable and the LIOS system was connected to this fiber, making installation and setup quick and easy.
