  • Patent number: 4704004
    Abstract: A light box comprises a source of light, a reflector and a Fresnel lens. The lens provides nearly constant illumination of an object such as a liquid crystal cell by collimating light parallel to a normal to the cell. Thus the cell will exhibit a nearly uniform electro-optical response. The reflector preferably is parabolic, while the light source preferably is a line source such as a fluorescent tube.
