SPECTRASWITCH TM: A Patented Optical Self-Testing Electrical Control System
Innovative Optical Switching 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, utilizing a single optical fiber to replace traditional 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. This innovative system supports optical switching and is fully customizable to meet specific company needs (e.g., avionic position sensors, smart building configurations). It accommodates 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 technology enables micro-switch and sensor sizes, including infrared versions. Three proof-of-concept prototypes (2-position, 3-position, 3-way, self-testing) are ready for demos under a standard NDA.
