A Patented Self-Testing "Control Affirmed By Light Energy" (CABLE) System
Inventive Technologies for Passive Fiberoptic Systems
Welcome to SPECTRASWITCH TM
The "Control by Light" Fiberoptic Electrical Control System, SpectraSwitch™ (U.S. Patent No. 11,493,695), is the world’s first self-testing fiber-optic switch and sensor for remote electrical control and monitoring, using a single optical fiber to replace copper wiring. Its Wavelength Selective Reflective Surfaces (WSRS) reflect specific colors for precise control, while continuous light detects faults instantly, enhancing reliability for aerospace avionics, industrial controls, and more. Fully customizable to specific company needs (e.g., avionic position sensors, smart building configurations), it supports multi-position (e.g., up-off-down) and multi-location (e.g., 3-way) switching, is explosion-proof, shock-proof, waterproof, EMI-proof, and eliminates short circuit risks. Optical MEMS enables micro-switch and sensor sizes with infrared versions. Three proof-of-concept prototypes (2-position, 3-position, 3-way, self-testing) are ready for demos under a standard NDA
