OPTICAL IMAGING SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18419882 titled 'OPTICAL IMAGING SYSTEM
The optical imaging system described in the patent application consists of a series of six lenses arranged in a specific configuration to achieve certain optical parameters.
- The system must satisfy the conditions of 0.35<R1/f<0.40, N2+N3+N4>4.8, and TTL/(2*IMG HT)<0.70.
- R1 is the radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the first lens, f is the overall focal length of the system, N2, N3, and N4 are refractive indices of specific lenses, TTL is the distance from the first lens to the image sensor, and IMG HT is half of the diagonal length of the image sensor.
- The arrangement and specifications of the lenses in the system are crucial to meet the required optical performance criteria.
Potential Applications:
- This optical imaging system could be used in digital cameras, medical imaging devices, and other imaging systems that require high-quality optical performance.
- It may find applications in scientific research, astronomy, and industrial imaging where precise and accurate imaging is essential.
