At their size of ~400 micron, care and unique tensioning is required. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54f3c49ae4b0376cee75335e/1537834397514-FGQPM6NYC321BPUL56PI/3u71XhOw.jpeg Work - AFFOA LED Fibers Failure mechanisms of the fibers can found by knitting with the LEDs powered by a battery. Most notable failures involve bending radius of fibers, tensile strength, and fiber buckling due to cross section geometry. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54f3c49ae4b0376cee75335e/1537834554138-JB5AELSKD0QQA7EF998S/eNXAoxsg.jpeg Work - AFFOA LED Fibers Results are used to guide fiber development teams in iterating designs.
