Other Optics

 

Mirrors – May be used to provide projection of not directly visible object surfaces or to provide projection of up to 360o around an object into a single camera.

 

Cylindrical Lens – The right arrangement can unfold cylindrical areas and effectively produce field-flattened image.

 

Aspherical Image Formation – In order to make more efficient use of the imaging electronics or to increase the resolution in one image axis it is sometimes desirable to use a different magnification for two image axis. A cylindrical beam expander is then added to change the magnification in one image axis.

 

Beam Splitter – A beam splitter can be used to image different areas of an object using a single light or to project light into areas that are difficult to reach.

 

Split Imaging – Is required when one wants to inspect two or more features not accessible to a single camera. Two or more cameras can be used in multiplexed arrangements, or two or more lower resolution camera fields can be combined into a single video frame. An alternate method is to use mirrors or coherent fiber optics to combine two images into one.
