Microfluidic imaging array
Abstract:
A projection-type imaging array comprising a plurality of microfluidic devices (1, 1′) are provided, each microfluidic device having a reservoir (30) containing first and second fluids (10 and 20) that are immiscible with respect to teach other. A drive unit (40) is provided for each microfluidic device to selectively displace the surface formed at the interface between the first and second fluids. Accordingly, when a particular microfluidic device is turned OFF according to the drive unit, the interface surface is positioned to redirect incoming light (via reflection/refraction) away from a display surface (80). Conversely, when the microfluidic device is turned ON, the interface surface is positioned so that the incoming light is directed toward the display surface.
