Abstract: Attenuation of an optical signal (25) at the end (43) of an optical fiber (21) is achieved
by positioning a high absorption region (24) at the end of the fiber. A first embodiment
teaches a highly doped annulus (24) within a tapered end (5) of the fiber. The highly doped
annulus about the light transmitting core (22) serves to absorb light at the end of the fiber.
The light transmitting core of the fiber is reduced in diameter due to the tapering,
causing the field of light to expand beyond the core. The highly doped annulus is in
proximity to the core due to the tapering. The annulus, which is preferably heavily
doped with a rare earth such as erbium, absorbs the escaping light in sufficient
quantities, both in the initial pass through the tapered region and again upon reflection
of the light at the end of the tapered region, such that the attenuation of the reflected
light is within acceptable limits without regard to the condition of the fiber's end
surface.

Abstract: An interactive display apparatus comprises an audio subsystem (4), a control subsystem (5) and a plurality of video subsystems (2, 3). The video subsystems (2, 3) have access locally to image data, including image files and live video. The video subsystems (2, 3) are controlled by the control subsystem (5) which then sends command messages to the video subsystems (2, 3). A person watching the display (22, 42) of one of the video subsystems (2, 3) can dial into the audio subsystem (4) and thereby control the operation of the video subsystem (2, 3). To do this, the audio subsystem (4) notifies the control subsystem (5) of incoming audio command signals. It is to be noted that when the system is on line, the control subsystem (5) does not transfer image data to the video subsystem (2, 3) but merely sends commands setting the format of the images displayed on the screens (22, 42). <IMAGE>
