FULL DIY TUTORIAL Sunlight collector using optical fibers

How much you spent in total for this project? Is it possible to use bigger glass? Like 5cm or 10cm diameter?

I found this because I want to do the same thing. Great vid!. Looks as though 3D printed parts would make this much easier to make.

Very informative. Will try this when time permits.
Do the fibers you used transmit most or any of the IR?
Had idea for passive radiant cooling using reflective features to guide light into fiber optics. Seems this would make surface cooler and you could use that energy elsewhere.

they should put these into sheds and other storage rooms that are dark.. even better for plants though. great video! thanks.

thank you so much 🤗💫💥🤗🤗🤗

put your optical lens in water it disperses like a light?

I wonder if one needs to make sure the chosen fibers do not filter out wavelengths that plants need.

YESSSSS!!! I LOVE THIS!!!

I watched the video because I am interested in creating jungle biodomes for various climates

Why not have a ton of fibers behind a culminating lens? Would that be more space efficient but also effective?

fantastic - impressive - I will try and use this idea

I want to grow plant indoors in a vertical building farm

I am searching big diamiter optic fiber, i nedd more light to come in.

Can you give me some advice, I need more big diamiter optic fiver.

Did you have issues with excessive heat? I want to do something similar to avoid using a parabolic with a secondary focal lens to eliminate UV and other invisible spectrum. I think coating the back of your lenses with a uv blocker would drop the temp significantly without too much loss of visible spectrum?

How to connect with you? Your Twitter account seems non functional

Very good, keep making more.

thank you man, cheers from Brazil

¡ Excellent thankyou vm !. I' try to do it !. I want ti use it to homemade alarm that lighting a LDR. The alarm active when the light is off between Emisor an receptor.
¡ You area genious. Health for you and yours !

Please, if I want to put a lens in a room, how can I make the dimensions of the lens suitable for the dimensions of the room

Please how can I contact you

Ok so I saw this guy used fiber optics mirrors and lights to grow a tomato plant 15 foot tall and cherry tomatoes were the size of baseballs it made 15, thousand tomatoes I was thinking about maybe I could use this on cannabis and it would grow way bigger from the pure light

I love the French accent ❤

Light can only enter the fiber from the tip/enf and not the side of the fiber?

This solar fiber optic systems that do not track the orientation of the sun. How much the efficiency? Only work in a specific time slot, say for only 30 minutes?

is it possible? actually i want to use sunlight for theatre

Awesome idea! I want to try this on a larger scale similar to deck prisims to get more natural light below deck on a sailboat!

Getting natural light below deck without weakening the hull is hard but I think something like this could work!

is there a way to expand it? Like what if you take the same lense, reverse it on the other end?

This is really cool, thanks for the video!

Looks ver well done, thanks.
Can yu rvide reference for optical fiber and lens ? I did tru to fine fiber but no succes

Where can I buy this convex plano lens?

Sir, may i know what is the diameter chosen for the optical fibre?

Great idea!
what is the diameter of each fibre used?? 😀

Great

Can I do this in a tiny home camper?

Bro where i get this optical fiber

Thank you friend!

Parans Solar Lighting

Does anyone know what is the minimum length required to fully block the UV? If UV cant pass through, I'm assuming just a couple inches or less could work?

So cool 😎

Today i woke up and randomly think, I need free laser power from sun. start searching and find your video. 😃

hi im planning to make this for my college project and wanted to ask if i could use a 50 mm lense instead ?

Brother How did calculate how many 2cm diameter cylinder pipes can fitted in the 10cm diameter cylinder pipe?

1)I have a few questions
If this has to be used in real life applications why would people use this since it is expensive compared to other things like solar panels or led lights and how many of them would it take to give the same brightness of led lights
2) how many of these would it take to light up a 9watt bulb or any other kind of bulbs
3)what about the fire hazard of using it in real life

how thick were the fibers its selef? like 1mm diameter ? thanks for your anwser

What happens when a magnifying glass or frenel lens is put to it

Amazing information. Thank you.

Thank you so much. Was wondering if you have any knowledge or see if there is any kids that you can make DIY quicker from the last 6 years of this video?

I can imagine 3D printing could make this whole process much more optimized
