What is a fiberscope?
A fiberscope is a type of equipment used for visual inspection of areas that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to access. A fiberscope is essentially a flexible borescope – It has a long narrow flexible insertion tube containing optic fibers which are connected on one end by an eye piece, and on the other end with a lens. The eyepiece remains outside the area being viewed, while the body of the fiberscope is run along the inside of the area being inspected. Fiberscopes can be snaked around corners curves and obstacles and can be used to view areas up to several hundred feet from the eye piece. Watch What is a Fiberscope Video Tutorial.
