Apparatus, method, and system for detecting acceleration and motor monitoring
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving a first fiber optic interconnect and a second fiber optic interconnect, wherein the first and second fiber optic interconnects are to be housed in a cable along with power and ground lines;
deflecting an input light received from the first fiber optic interconnect in response to a vibration or movement of a module; and
transmitting the deflected input light as an output light to the second fiber optic interconnect.

Abstract
Described is a system which includes: a cable including: a first fiber optic interconnect to provide an input light; and a second fiber optic interconnect to provide an output light; and a first housing coupled to the cable, the first housing including: a first deflection circuit to deflect the input light received from the first fiber optic interconnect in response to a vibration or movement of the first housing; and a second housing coupled to the cable, the second housing including: a light source to generate the input light for transmission to the first deflection circuit via the first fiber optic interconnect; and a photo detector to receive the output light from the first deflection circuit via the second fiber optic interconnect.
