Claim 16:
17. The light control system of claim 9, wherein:
the six voltages include a first voltage, a second voltage, a third voltage, a fourth voltage, a fifth voltage, and a sixth voltage; and
each hexagonal-shaped tunable optic comprises:
first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth side walls and first and second light transmissive end walls, the first and fourth side walls disposed parallel to each other, the second and fifth sidewalls disposed parallel to each other, the third and sixth sidewalls disposed parallel to each other, the first and second light transmissive end walls spaced apart from each other and coupled to the first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth side walls, whereby the first, second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth side walls and the first and second light transmissive end walls define a hexagonal-shaped inner cavity;
a polar liquid disposed within the hexagonal-shaped inner cavity;
a first electrode coupled to the first side wall and coupled to receive the first voltage;
a second electrode coupled to the second side wall and coupled to receive the second voltage;
a third electrode coupled to the third side wall and coupled to receive the third voltage;
a fourth electrode coupled to the fourth side wall and coupled to receive the fourth voltage;
a fifth electrode coupled to the fifth side wall and coupled to receive the fifth voltage;
a sixth electrode coupled to the sixth sidewall and coupled to receive the sixth voltage; and
a grounding electrode electrically connected to the polar liquid.
