A configuration for real-time measurement of unique, space-variant, polarizations is presented. The experimental results reveal that the full state of polarization at each location within the beam can be accurately obtained every 10 msec, limited only by the camera frame rate. We also present a more compact configuration which can be modified to determine the real-time wavelength variant polarization measurements.
