Latest results can be found on the PhosFOS EU webpage [http://www.phosfos.eu/index.php/eng/Phosfos/Conferences-and-Presentations]. One of the early results from the project was the successful demonstration of a repeatable method of joining the polymer fiber to standard silica fibre. This was a major development and allowed for the first time POF Bragg gratings to be used in real applications outside of the optics lab. One of the first uses for these sensors was in monitoring the strain of tapestries <ref>http://eprints.soton.ac.uk/68650/01/137_Lennard.pdf</ref>.
Other recent progress includes the demonstration of birefringent photonic crystal fibers with zero polarimetric sensitivty to temperature <ref>http://www.phosfos.eu/index.php/eng/Phosfos/Journals/Birefringent-photonic-crystal-fibers-with-zero-polarimetric-sensitivity-to-temperature</ref> and a successful demonstration of transversal load sensing with fibre Bragg gratings in microstructured optic fibers <ref>http://www.phosfos.eu/index.php/eng/Phosfos/Journals/Transversal-Load-Sensing-with-Fiber-Bragg-Gratings-in-Microstructured-Optical-Fibers</ref> .
