Abstract: A device for use in detecting, characterizing and correcting flaws in optic fibers includes a light source for generating a beam of light at an optic fiber, a detector measurer for detectably measuring at least one of refracted light rays, diffracted light rays and scattered light rays from the beam and generating a signal in response thereto, a computer-based device operatively associated with the detector measurer for receiving the signal and manipulating the signal to produce an output indicating one of a normal area and a flawed area, a camera device operatively associated with the computer-based device and responsive to the output for visually recording the flawed area in response to indication of a flawed area and permitting display of thereof.
