Abstract
The concept of applying optical fiber sensors for 3-dimensional (3D) shape
reconstruction purposes has become more popular in recent years. The literature review
showcased various approaches to optical fiber based shape sensing and its applications. I
developed a setup capable of estimating the shape of the needle in 3D space. The accuracy of the
3D shape reconstruction of the needle was acceptable. The results suggest that the main source of
inconsistency is the ground truth data, as it was collected by hand. On the other hand, the
reconstructed shape data were consistent among different trials and scenarios. The main source
of error for the global shape reconstruction was the IMU sensor. The core of my work is
experimental, meaning that the main goal was to implement the prototype and present proof of
concept.
