Title:
- Dynamic Acousto-Caustics in Dual-optimized Holographic Fields
Organizer(s)/Presenter(s):
Description:
We introduce “Dynamic Acousto-Caustics” a method that merges acoustofluidics with optics to dynamically manipulate light caustics by controlling the shape of liquid surfaces. Using computer-controlled acoustic fields to deform the surface of a liquid medium, we generate dynamic light behaviors in fluid patterns unachievable with static refractive surfaces.
