both in Ukraine and elsewhere there is the fiber optic challenge. shouldn't it be possible to lock-in amplify imagery of known fluorescent centers in the main types of fiber optic?: flash/flood the scene with appropriate stimulation wavelength for suitable fluorescent center, take a picture (and observe the emission wavelength), then take the same picture without the flash, repeat this N times and add all the ones with the flash present and subtract all the frames without so one can observe the exact paths of the optic cables... It seems one could mass produce a cheap detection and imaging platform that can aid cutting all the umbilical cords cost-effectively. |

"shouldn't it be possible to lock-in amplify imagery of known fluorescent centers in the main types of fiber optic?"
In Ukraine, there are areas densely covered with fiber optic lines, almost all of them old. How would you detect and cut only the active ones?
A brightly flashing drone examining and cutting fiber optics lines would a) be slow and very obvious, easy to disable b) need a lot of battery power for all those flashes, and risk getting tangled in branches when cutting
On the other hand, if you can easily remotely detect the fiber optic cables, it might be useful for quickly detecting them and tracing them back to the operator.
