A complete working prototype of the fiber optic blade tip sensor was first tested in the laboratory, followed by a thorough evaluation at NASA W8 Single Compressor Stage Facility in Lewis Research Center. Subsequently, a complete system with three parallel channels was fabricated and delivered to Dr. Kurkov. The final system was tested in the Subsonic Wind Tunnel Facility, in parallel with The General Electric Company's light probe system. The results at all operating speeds were comparable. This report provides a brief description of the system and presents a summary of the experimental results.
