Abstract

A portable electronic device includes a casing, a liquid crystal, a controlling module, and a button. The liquid crystal display is capable of emitting polarized light. The controlling module is received in the casing, the controlling module is configured for controlling the liquid crystal display to display a white screen when receiving a control signal. The button is configured for generating the control signal when triggered by a user.

Claims (11)

1. A method for testing polarizing ability of a glass comprising:

providing a portable electronic device with a liquid crystal display for emitting polarized light;

displaying a white screen on the liquid crystal display of the portable electronic device;

disposing a glass having a first side and an opposing second side, the first side thereof facing the white screen of the liquid crystal display whereby the polarized light from the liquid crystal display enters the glass from the first side and exits from the second side thereof;

rotating the glass and checking whether an intensity of the light exiting from the second side of the glass is variable;

displaying the checking result of the light intensity to an operator.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the portable electronic device is a mobile phone, a digital camera, or an MP3.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the portable electronic device comprises a casing, the casing includes a front surface, a rear surface opposite to the front surface, and a side surface, the front surface is substantially parallel to the rear surface, and the side surface is substantially perpendicular to the front surface and the rear surface.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the liquid crystal display is disposed on the front surface of the casing.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises determining the glass is a polarizing glass if the intensity of the light exiting from the second side of the glass is variable while rotating the glass.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises determining the glass is not a polarizing glass if the intensity of the light exiting from the second side of the glass is invariable while rotating the glass.
