Apparatus and method for adjustable variable transmissivity polarized eyeglasses

摘要

Adjustable variable transmissivity (AVT) eyeglasses for patients. In one embodiment, the eyeglasses include: (1) a frame having earpieces coupled thereto, (2) liquid crystal lenses coupled to the frame and configured to assume a transmissivity in response to a lens control signal, (3) a light sensor coupled to the frame and configured to sense light in a field of view and produce a sensor signal in response thereto, (4) a light plug coupled to the frame and configured to define a field of view and (5) an electronic circuit coupled to the frame and configured to employ the sensor signal to generate the lens control signal.
