Abstract: An auto-focus camera (100) can include a lens (102), a sensor (108) for detecting an image from the lens, a first liquid crystal layer (104) between the lens and the sensor, and a second liquid crystal layer (106) between the lens and the sensor and further orthogonally aligned to the first liquid crystal layer. The auto-focus camera can further include an integrated circuit programmed to drive the first liquid crystal layer and the second liquid crystal layer. The auto-focus camera can include a controller (202) programmed to control two orthogonally aligned liquid crystal layers. The liquid crystal layers can serve as an optical anti-alias filter using birefringence properties of the liquid crystal layers. The first liquid crystal layer and the second liquid crystal layer can be orthogonally aligned to achieve polarization insensitive operation of the auto-focus camera.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a plurality of displays for an electronic device including a display layer (102, 104), a light guide layer (108), and a damping material layer (110) coupled between the light guide layer and the display layer. The display layer in one embodiment is a liquid crystal display layer, but other types of display layers may be used. The light guide layer may serve as a back light for the display layer, and may be between approximately 0.05 mm and 2 mm in thickness. Devices described herein include at least one interposed layer of acoustic and/or mechanical energy absorbing material, also referred to herein as damping material, between the display layer susceptible to vibration, and a hard layer near the display layer.
