Since the dawn of man- kind, nature has provided models to help explain complex phenomena and relationships.
Observation of the principles of nature, and the pursuit of their underlying causes, forms the basis for discovery and innovation.
Sometimes, those innovations are even more fascinating than what nature itself has created.
Optical fiber technology provides a good example. By taking advantage of the properties of glass, it has become possible to efficiently transport unprecendented amounts of information through hair-thin fibers. Information which has helped make our lives simpler, safer and more enjoyable.
