Applications > Special lighting effectsIn addition to the diversity of serious lighting tasks that can be undertaken by FibreOptic Light and Designs Ltd there are numerous special effects that can also be created. The choices are limited only by the creativity of our customers and ourselves working as a team. Because we handle all three types of fibre, glass, large core polymer and bundled polymer and a large range of light drivers, we can create colourful and interactive effects that use the character of the chosen fibre-type to its best advantage. The ferruled ends of bundles of small glass tails can be made to erupt in colourful patterns while bundles of small clear jacketed side emission fibres can sparkle and flow in stunning arrays of coloured or white light. Large core polymer is more diverse in specification and is less pliable than glass or bundled polymer and this makes it self supporting in some situations. It is able to emit a brighter ball of light in the end-emission type and in the side-emission type its appearance is semi-transparent and very like neon but without neon’s drawbacks. Bundled polymer is as flexible as glass and very versatile. End-emission fibre can either use the full bundle to create a single bright light point or split-out from its jacket to allow the small strands to individually create magical patterns. Fibre optic signs, starfields and glow-worms are typical but a simple spray of coloured tips creates exciting effects. In the side emission type bundled polymer resembles a clear rope consisting of up to 150 strands twisted inside a clear jacket that is pliable, easy to drape or reticulate in a variety of ways, and emitting a dense and intense trail of white or coloured light.
