  2. Luneburg lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luneburg_lens

    A Luneburg lens (original German Lüneburg lens) is a spherically symmetric gradient-index lens. A typical Luneburg lens's refractive index n decreases radially from the center to the outer surface. They can be made for use with electromagnetic radiation from visible light to radio waves . For certain index profiles, the lens will form perfect ...

  3. Intraocular lens power calculation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraocular_lens_power...

    In order to determine the power of intraocular lens, several values need to be known: Eye's axial length (AL) Corneal power (K) Postoperative IOL position within the eye known as estimated lens position (ELP) The anterior chamber constant: A-constant or another lens related constant

  4. Numerical aperture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_aperture

    The numerical aperture with respect to a point P depends on the half-angle, θ1, of the maximum cone of light that can enter or exit the lens and the ambient index of refraction. As a pencil of light goes through a flat plane of glass, its half-angle changes to θ2. Due to Snell's law, the numerical aperture remains the same: NA = n1 sin θ1 ...

  5. Focal length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Focal_length

    Focal length. The focal point F and focal length f of a positive (convex) lens, a negative (concave) lens, a concave mirror, and a convex mirror. The focal length of an optical system is a measure of how strongly the system converges or diverges light; it is the inverse of the system's optical power. A positive focal length indicates that a ...

  6. Spherical aberration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_aberration

    Spherical aberration of collimated light incident on a concave spherical mirror. In optics, spherical aberration ( SA) is a type of aberration found in optical systems that have elements with spherical surfaces. This phenomenon commonly affects lenses and curved mirrors, as these components are often shaped in a spherical manner for ease of ...

  7. VISCA Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VISCA_Protocol

    The VISCA Protocol is used on LectureSight, Avaya Scopia, Angekis, Atlona HDVS series cameras, Polycom and Cisco / Tandberg video conferencing systems. Sony and Canon use VISCA for CCTV cameras. Blackmagic Design ATEM switchers that have RS-422 port and controlled by either ATEM 1M/E or ATEM 2M/E control panels are capable of controlling VISCA ...

  8. Cardinal point (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardinal_point_(optics)

    Cardinal point (optics) In Gaussian optics, the cardinal points consist of three pairs of points located on the optical axis of a rotationally symmetric, focal, optical system. These are the focal points, the principal points, and the nodal points; there are two of each. [1] For ideal systems, the basic imaging properties such as image size ...

  10. Zeiss formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeiss_formula

    Jacobson's inferred circle of confusion diameter, using , was about 0.025 mm. In photographic optics, the Zeiss formula is a supposed formula for computing a circle of confusion (CoC) criterion for depth of field (DoF) calculations. The formula is , where is the diagonal measure of a camera format, film, sensor, or print, and the maximum ...

  11. Spatial cutoff frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_cutoff_frequency

    The spatial cutoff frequency for a perfectly corrected incoherent optical system is given by. [1] where is the wavelength expressed in millimeters and F# is the lens' focal ratio. As an example, a telescope having an f/6 objective and imaging at 0.55 micrometers has a spatial cutoff frequency of 303 cycles/millimeter.
