# Polarization - **Website:** - **Primary alias:** `polarization.com` ## Description Alight is a source for large-format linear polarizing film and filters, as well as circularly polarized sheets and wave-retarder film. Its products serve practical, technical, educational, and display applications that use polarized light. In photography, the film can support archival and studio work, including crossed-polarized lighting. For quality control, polariscopes use polarization to reveal stress in plastic and glass. Other applications include reducing reflected sunglare, repairing liquid-crystal displays in monitors, televisions, and instrument panels, and limiting visibility through pairs of control-room windows. The materials can also help improve contrast in video surveillance, such as when observing forest fires. Educational uses range from overhead demonstrations and hands-on experiments to science fairs and museum activities. Alight also offers support for three-dimensional display systems, including custom linear or circular arrangements and combinations with LCDs. The associated site highlights polarized light in nature and technology, with topics including rainbows, insects, the sky, space, sunglasses, and displays. Together, these offerings connect polarization materials with a broad range of scientific and practical uses. ## Industries - 🖥 Computers Electronics and Technology - 🧪 Science and Education - 🧪 Physics _(under Science and Education)_ ## Colors | Name | Hex | Theme | | --- | --- | --- | | Crete | #726f27 | accent | | Midnight Blue | #00276f | dark | | Anakiwa | #99ffff | light | --- _Source: _ _See [/llms.txt](/llms.txt) for a full list of agent-readable pages, and [/auth.md](/auth.md) for how agents authenticate._
