Abstract

The tilt and position of individually controllable element are simultaneously adjusted to allow a greater range of contrasts to be achieved. This can also be used to compensate for cupping of individually controllable elements. Simultaneous adjustment of both the position and tilt of the individually controllable elements can be achieved by two electrodes operable over a range of values.
