Bifocal optical system for distant object tracking
DOI:10.1364/OPEX.13.000136.png)
Abstract
En 中文
A new bifocal optical system used for distant object tracking is proposed. This system combines a birefringent element with a conventional glass lens so that the spot image size and its variation with the axial distance can be controlled according to the requirement of a distant object tracker. The lens design for the tracking application is discussed and an example is given. The new lens system provides a more uniform spot image size and an extended focal depth compared to a conventional lens with one focus. (C) 2005 Optical Society of America.
