Abstract
A metallized viscoelastic light-control layer as in the Ruticon (Xerox) and the deformographic storage display tube (IBM), a single-crystal silicon active addressing as in the deformable mirror device (TI), and a schlieren-optics dark-field system as in the Eidophor (GRETAG) and the Talaria/MLV/3LV (GE) projectors form the basis of a light valve with an active-matrix-addressed deformable elastomer used with schlieren optics (AMADEUS) first proposed almost twenty years ago.
