ORIGIN OF LIGHT RUNNER
 Fiber Optic Technologies Pvt Ltd has its roots in Eagle

Photonics – a pioneer company in Fiber Optic education, research,
consultancy & communication link project implementation work
 A need for a modern Fiber Optic Training laboratory in a Mr. Hitesh Mehta
compact form for teaching fiber optics concepts in a user friendly
manner was felt
 Contacts with leading R&D organizations like IIT Delhi led to
the conceptualization of Light Runner
 Development based on the concept was done by the newly
Prof. K. Thyagarajan
formed Fiber Optika having a dedicated team of highly qualified
scientists and engineers
 Prototype was ready within 4 months of conceptualization and
the first product hit the market in 6 months
