Electronically variable MTF filter for image sensor arrays
A liquid crystal birefringent MTF filter 20 is permanently positioned between the lens 18 and the sensor array 15 of an image input scanner 10 to reduce image modulation at frequencies where moiré occurs, with a source of electric potential and a control switch for selectively applying the potential...

| description | A liquid crystal birefringent MTF filter 20 is permanently positioned between the lens 18 and the sensor array 15 of an image input scanner 10 to reduce image modulation at frequencies where moiré occurs, with a source of electric potential and a control switch for selectively applying the potential and switching the filter to or from a filtering state. In a variation of the first embodiment, a two-stage MTF filter is used. In a second embodiment, a tunable liquid crystal scattering MTF filter is combined with a full width sensor array. |
