Optical devices like Virtual Reality (VR) headsets present challenges in terms of vergence accommodation conflict. To solve these challenges a fast switching device which uses ferroelectric liquid crystal (FLC) cell, response time in the micro-second range and a passive polarization dependent Liquid Crystal (LC) lens, is being presented in our studies.
