An
incandescent lamp filament is focused on a sheet of
temperature sensitive, liquid crystal. The liquid crystal
sheet indicates that more energy is present below the
visible spectrum. Filters that swing into the light
path allow the visitor to experiment with the light.
The liquid crystal shipped with the exhibit has a sensitive
temperature range of 25-30°C. This suits most environments
well. If the exhibit is used in a very warm environment,
a 30-35°C liquid crystal may be needed instead.
