OPTICAL IMAGING SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18627741 titled 'OPTICAL IMAGING SYSTEM
The optical imaging system described in the patent application consists of multiple lens groups and a reflective member that can change the optical path.
- The system includes a first, second, third, and fourth lens group arranged along the optical axis, with at least one lens group being movable.
- A reflective member with a reflective surface is positioned on the object side of the first lens group to alter the optical path.
- The first lens group has a positive refractive power and satisfies the condition 0.45≤fG1/L≤0.8, where fG1 is the focal length of the first lens group and L is the distance from the reflective member to the imaging plane.
Potential Applications: - Medical imaging systems - Surveillance cameras - Satellite imaging technology
Problems Solved: - Improved image quality - Enhanced optical performance - Increased flexibility in optical system design
Benefits: - Higher resolution images - Greater control over optical parameters - Enhanced overall system performance
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Optical Imaging Systems for Various Industries This technology can be utilized in industries such as medical imaging, surveillance, and satellite technology to improve image quality and overall system performance.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the movable lens group contribute to the flexibility of the optical system design? 2. What are the specific advantages of using a reflective member in the optical imaging system?
Original Abstract Submitted
An optical imaging system includes a first lens group, a second lens group, a third lens group, and a fourth lens group sequentially disposed in ascending numerical order along an optical axis of the optical imaging system away from an object side of the optical imaging system toward an imaging plane of the optical imaging system, at least one lens group among the first to fourth lens groups being configured to be movable along the optical axis; and a reflective member disposed on an object side of the first lens group and including a reflective surface configured to change an optical path, wherein the first lens group has a positive refractive power, and 0.45≤fG1/L≤0.8 is satisfied, where fG1 is a focal length of the first lens group, and L is a distance from an object-side surface of the reflective member to the imaging plane.
