11635612 · 2023-04-25 · ·

A light control system includes a housing, a controllable power source, a light source, and a plurality of cube-shaped tunable prisms. The controllable power source supplies at least four variable voltages. The light source is operable to emit a light beam. The cube-shaped tunable prisms are arranged in a manner so there are no gaps between adjacent tunable prisms. Each tunable prism receives a portion of the emitted light beam, each has a tunable deflection angle that is variable in two dimensions, and each is configured to optically steer the emitted light beam in the two dimensions based on the tunable deflection angle. Each tunable prism is further coupled to receive the four variable voltages. Each tunable prism comprises a liquid that varies the tunable deflection angle in two dimensions in response to the four variable voltages supplied thereto, to thereby deflect the light beam.
