Abstract

Fluidic adaptive lens devices, and systems employing such lens devices such as eyeglasses and zoom lens systems, along with methods of fabricating and operating such lens devices, are disclosed. In one embodiment, the fluidic lens device includes a first partition that is flexible and optically transparent and a second partition that is coupled to the first partition, where at least a portion of the second partition is optically transparent, and where a first cavity is formed in between the first partition and the second partition. The lens device further includes a first fluidic medium positioned within the cavity, the fluidic medium also being optically transparent, and a first component capable of controlling a parameter of the fluidic medium. When the parameter of the fluidic medium changes, the first partition flexes and an optical property of the lens is varied.
