We proposed an electrically controlled optical device capable of operating in two modes: reflection mode, where the surface of gallium-based liquid metal droplets, a liquid metal, is used as a mirror, and transmission mode, where the droplets function as an optical shutter. By arranging multiple channels in parallel, we confirmed the ability to control the irradiated light patterns on the screen.
