LC-R 1080 Spatial Light Modulator - High-Resolution & High Contrast

Spatial Light Modulator LC-R 1080

The LC-R 1080 is an easy-to-use Spatial Light Modulator system based on a reflective LCoS™ (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) microdisplay designed for prototyping in industrial development and research. The LC-R 1080 Spatial Light Modulator supports DVI-signals with a WUXGA/HDTV resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixel. The LC-R 1080 offers the highest resolution on the market with a very small pixel pitch of only 8.1 µm. Due to the special Brillian high contrast mode, the display features incredible intensity ratios even for IR wavelengths.

High light efficiency due to the reflective LCoS™ microdisplay and the high contrast mode guarantee excellent optical performance. Very long flex extensions and the very small display size makes integration into optical systems easy.

Due to the high resolution (1920 x 1200 - HDTV-resolution), the small pixel pitch of 8.1 µm and the high contrast microdisplay the LC-R 1080 Spatial Light Modulator is the perfect solution for projection applications (amplitude modulator: Optical metrology / fringe projection; HMD / HUD; 3D projection / Simulation; Imaging). The hardware of this device is completely OEM capable.

LC-R 1080 - User-friedly Spatial Light Modulator

Spatial Light Modulator LC-R 1080

The LC-R 1080 can be plugged directly to a computer graphics card by the DVI interface. Live addressing with the frame rate of the graphic card and the function as a MS Windows desktop is one reason why this Spatial Light Modulator is so comfortable to use. The device is controlled by a HOLOEYE driver software (for all Windows platforms), which is delivered with the kit. This software gives the opportunity of controlling all relevant image parameters and provides a very easy gamma control to configure the Spatial Light Modulator for different applications.

Furthermore a tailored Spatial Light Modulator application software allows the simple generation of diverse dynamic optical functions like gratings, lenses, axicons and apertures as well as the calculation of diffractive optical elements (DOE) from user defined images.
