Abstract: A light source contains a laser having a radiating facet that radiates light with an intrinsic or acquired intensity profile. The light is received by an optical scrambler comprising a bundle of optical fibers having and input surface and an output surface. The input surface formed by input endings of the optical fibers in the bundle, the input endings of the optical fibers having a position in the input surface defined by a first set of coordinates. The output surface formed by output endings of the optical fibers, the output endings of the optical fibers having a position in the output surface defined by a second set of coordinates, the second set of coordinates being a non-affine transformation of the first set of coordinates. The optical scrambler receives the light with the intensity pattern from the laser at the input surface and radiates light from the output surface having a different intensity profile.
