Abstract
Summary form only. In many optical designs, movable optics are used to modulate, focus or redirect light fields. Solutions that allow more compact and shock resistant designs are needed. We present two electro-optical liquid crystal lenses which satisfy these requirements when focus tracking without any mechanical components.
