More Information
Summary:An optical sensor system comprising: (a) a light source for at least one optical sensor, the light source comprising at least, (i) an interposer having first and second opposing sides and defining at least one alignment aperture extending from the first opposing side to the second opposing side; (ii) at least one fiber disposed in the at least one alignment aperture, the at least one fiber having a first optical axis; (iii) at least one light emitting component mounted to the second opposing side and having a second optical axis coincident with the first optical axis, the light emitting component configured to emit light, at least a portion of which is coupled with the at least one fiber as coupled light; and (b) the at least one optical sensor optically coupled to the at least one fiber.
