- This paper was the first to show the potential of optical fibres for use in near-wall flow measurements based on the light backscatter from the sensor tip and its bending relative to the foot. As a result of this work, applications were developed in industry to apply multi-sensor micro-pillar arrays with optical read-out for applications in micro-fluidic channels and biofluidics. The interesting aspect of this knowledge transfer is the development for aeronautical applications, while potential higher market penetration is found in a complete different subject such as micro-fluidics
