Fiberscope is flexible devices that use a video fiber bundle to transmit an image from the point of view to the inspector’s eye. A second fiber bundle is used for transferring the illumination from the light source to the inspection area. Fiberscopes can flex and most models have ability to articulate the tip of the device. Fiberscopes can be attached to CCTV (video cameras) and digital imaging cameras so that movie or still images can be recorded for future reference or used in reporting documentation. Due to the limits of image fiber, fiberscopes can not produce the same high resolution picture as rigid borescopes (with lens systems) and videoscopes (CCD on the end of the tip)
