Pixelated Polarizers
Optics
Datasheet
Pixelated polarizers are designed using Moxtek® Nanowire® Technology.
Pixelated polarizers are available as two, three and four-state devices for
polarimetric imaging. Polarization helps to pull more information from an
obscured image to enable clearer imaging. With Pixelated Polarizers, multiple
polarizations across the visible and into IR wavelengths can be gathered realtime. This enables 3D imaging technology and extreme low light imaging.
Using 8 inch wafer technology Moxtek is able to manufacture these devices
in high-volume. Pixel pitch can be customized for different CCD/CMOS
sensor arrays.

Direct Pixel-to-Pixel Overlay
3D Imaging- The traditional way to 3D image is to use two shots with different
polarizations and two cameras precisely aligned to each other. Then the imaging
information must be very carefully overlaid and aligned. The advantage
with pixelated polarization on a CCD CMOS array is that you achieve the
equivalent information in a single shot that otherwise would require at least two
polarizations with two cameras. Pixelated polarization enables real-time 3D
imaging without the camera image overlay difficulty.
