We present an original acousto-optic tunable filter that is able to filter visible light from 400 to 650 nm and is designed to interact simultaneously with two polarizations. The filter shows an adjustable optical bandwidth and apodization capabilities. These features make it suitable for practical spectroscopic applications. Experimental validation is also presented.
