Light can be redirected by fiber optics through a process called total internal reflection. When light enters the fiber at a certain angle, it reflects off the inner walls of the fiber, which are coated with a material that has a lower refractive index. This allows the light to travel along the length of the fiber without escaping, effectively guiding it from one end to the other. The design of the fiber, including its core and cladding, is crucial for maintaining this reflection and directing the light efficiently.
