Abstract :
Summary form only given. Although FLC/VLSI technology is used with success in the construction of spatial light modulators it seems that few "smart pixel" systems are being progressed beyond the stage of small scale demonstrations. It is now reasonable to ask whether this materials system is well suited to the type of systems which are now described as containing smart pixels.
