Abstract
A point to strip optical communication system () for transmitting light between a first housing () and a second housing () of a device is provided. The point to strip optical communication system () includes a point optical communication element () that is capable of emitting light. The point optical communication element () is coupled to either the first housing () or the second housing (). The point to strip optical communication system () also includes a strip optical communication element () that is coupled to either the first housing () or the second housing () to which the point optical communication element () is not coupled. The length of the strip optical communication element () corresponds to the travel distance of the first housing () and the second housing (). The strip optical communication element () is located to coincide with the travel path of the point optical communication element ().
