Optical fibers can be made into interferometric sensors such as fiber optic gyroscopes, which are used in the Boeing 767 and in some car models (for navigation purposes).
Herbert John Shaw (June 2, 1918 – January 19, 2006) was a professor at Stanford University, and a major inventor in the fields of fiber optic gyroscopes, optical communications, and surface acoustic wave devices.
