  2. Polaroid (polarizer) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polaroid_(polarizer)

    Polarizing sheets are used in liquid-crystal displays, optical microscopes and sunglasses.Since Polaroid sheet is dichroic, it will absorb impinging light of one plane of polarization, so sunglasses will reduce the partially polarized light reflected from level surfaces such as windows and sheets of water, for example.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polaroid_Eyewear

    Polaroid Eyewear manufactures polarized sunglasses and polarized lenses, as well as optical frames, reading glasses, and clip-on lenses. Polaroid Eyewear was a part of the StyleMark group and sold to the Safilo Group in November 2011.

  4. Polarized 3D system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarized_3D_system

    A polarized 3D system uses polarization glasses to create the illusion of three-dimensional images by restricting the light that reaches each eye (an example of stereoscopy). To present stereoscopic images and films, two images are projected superimposed onto the same screen or display through different polarizing filters .

  5. Polarizer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarizer

    However, this crystal is seldom used as a polarizer, since the dichroic effect is strongly wavelength dependent and the crystal appears coloured. Herapathite is also dichroic, and is not strongly coloured, but is difficult to grow in large crystals. A Polaroid polarizing filter functions similarly on an atomic scale to the wire-grid polarizer ...

  6. Glasses - Wikipedia

    Polarized 3D glasses allow for color 3D, while the red-blue lenses produce an image with distorted coloration. An active shutter 3D system uses electronic shutters. Head-mounted displays can filter the signal electronically and then transmit light directly into the viewer's eyes. Anaglyph and polarized glasses are distributed to audiences at 3D ...

  7. Dichroism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dichroism

    Dichroism, in the second meaning above, occurs in liquid crystals due to either the optical anisotropy of the molecular structure or the presence of impurities or the presence of dichroic dyes. The latter is also called a guest–host effect .
