Electro-optical glare-protection filter

Abstract

The electro-optical glare protection filter comprises a liquid crystal cell which is a laterally extended liquid crystal cell defining a volume between two laterally extended sides, the volume containing liquid crystals and having, in a vertical direction perpendicular to lateral directions, a thickness being smaller than an extension of the volume in any lateral direction. The FFS cell comprises a first electrode structure and a second electrode structure, which are arranged to change an orientation of the liquid crystals in the volume when a voltage is applied between them, wherein both the first and the second electrode structure are present at the same laterally extended side of the volume. The first electrode structure may comprise a plurality of electrically separate electrodes and the second electrode structure may comprise a plurality of electrode lines.
