published by the Physics 2000

This Physics 2000 page, from the University of Colorado, offers an introductory explanation of polarization and the nature of polarized light. This page, part of a more complete tutorial of polarization, provides a simulation of the three polarizer problem. The user can use and rotate one, two and three polarizers and see the effect of the manipulation on a camera image.
