Abstract

The image processing supported by liquid crystals device has been used in numerous imaging applications, including polarization imaging, digital holography and programmable imaging. Liquid crystals have been extensively studied and are massively used in display and optical processing technology. We present here the main relevant parameters of liquid crystal for image processing and 3D shape acquisition and we compare the main liquid crystal options which can be used with their respective advantages. We propose here to compare performance of several types of liquid crystal materials: nematic mixtures with high and medium optical and dielectrical anisotropies and relatively low rotational viscosities nematic materials which may operate in TN mode in mono and dual frequency addressing systems.
