In this work, we fabricate and study the shape sensor based on a multicore optical fiber with randomly spaced discrete-point reflectors inscribed in its cores by femtosecond laser pulses. By testing the sensor on different 3D shape samples, we demonstrate the robustness of the shape reconstruction accuracy to introduced optical losses of the signal up to 20 dB with the relative reconstruction error being less than 4 %.
