Abstract

See full text

An optical switch includes a plurality of micro machined optical elements and at least one magnetic sensor disposed on a moveable portion of one or more of the micro machined optical elements in the plurality to generate a signal for tracking the orientation of the movable portion of the micro machined optical element. The switch may provides ON/OFF state tracking in a 2D planar matrix configuration or track the angular position of the movable element in a 3D beam steering configuration.
