Abstract
An electrowetting display device includes a first support plate and a second support plate. The first support plate has rows and columns of pixel walls defining individual electrowetting pixels. A first fluid and a second fluid immiscible with the first fluid are between the first support plate and the second support plate. A sensor is coupled to the second support plate and configured to detect a first intensity of light incident upon the second support plate at a first angle. A controller is configured to displace the first fluid in either a first direction or a second direction based at least in part upon the first intensity of light detected by the sensor.
