• Fiber optics is used for long-distance and high-performance data networking, It’s also commonly used in telecommunication services, such as internet, television and telephones. • Lighting and decorations, communication, medical industry, broadcasting, defence, and mechanical industries extensively utilise optical fibre. • Optical fibre cables are employed to transmit television signals which have greater speed and bandwidth. Optical fibre is much cheaper than the same-size copper wires. • They are very flexible as well, therefore, they are used for biomedical; research, endoscopy and microscopy. Its used to view internal organs by inserting cable into body What are they?!?!??!?!? The light bounces Different materials with of the walls of the similar refractive indexes fibre cables
