Optical fiber sensors are nowadays a burgeoning R&D area with many applications in diverse fields such as structural health integrity, environmental and ecological monitoring and biomedical physics.

At INESC Porto, we have been working mainly in optical fiber technology, especially in-fiber Bragg and long period gratings, but also in intensity sensors.
