RELAY SYSTEM, PROJECTION SYSTEM, AND PROJECTOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240319484 titled 'RELAY SYSTEM, PROJECTION SYSTEM, AND PROJECTOR

The abstract describes a relay system that brings a beam output from a first image plane into focus at a second image plane. The system includes a first lens element, a reflection member, and a second lens element arranged sequentially in the direction of the beam's travel.

The first lens element has positive power.
The reflection member has a transmissive surface that is a concave surface where the beam is incident and exits, and a reflective surface that reflects the beam.
The second lens element also has positive power.
The beam output from the reflection member passes through the second lens element and is brought into focus at the second image plane.

Potential Applications: - Optical systems - Imaging devices - Cameras - Telescopes

Problems Solved: - Ensuring accurate focusing of beams in optical systems - Improving image quality in imaging devices

Benefits: - Enhanced image resolution - Improved optical performance - Precise focusing capabilities

Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Optical Relay Systems for High-Resolution Imaging This technology can be used in high-end cameras, telescopes, and other optical devices where precise focusing and high image quality are essential.

Original Abstract Submitted

a relay system brings a beam output from a first image plane into focus at a second image plane. the relay system includes a first lens element, a reflection member, and a second lens element sequentially arranged in the direction in which the beam travels. the first lens element has positive power. the reflection member has a transmissive surface that is a concave surface on which the beam is incident and via which the beam exits, and a reflective surface that is a concave surface that reflects the beam from the transmissive surface. the second lens element has positive power. the beam output from the reflection member passes through the second lens element and is brought into focus at the second image plane.
