Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of optical imaging technology, and in particular to an ultra-small pixel, large aperture, wide-area, high-resolution optical system and a design method thereof. Background Art
[0002] With the development of optoelectronic imaging and technical imaging, optical processing and detection technology has been continuously improved. The use of single lens plus mechanical scanning and splicing or large target detector direct splicing to achieve large field of view and high resolution has been widely used. However, the former design relies on traditional optical design, and it is difficult to have both large aperture and small pixel. The large field of view relies on mechanical scanning and cannot be imaged in real time. The latter has a large pixel size and is expensive due to the high stitching accuracy. It is often only used in space-based systems. Due to the above reasons, there are great limitations on the use scenarios and conditions, and it cannot meet the growing demand for small pixels and large aperture wide-area staring imaging.
[0003] In order to achieve large field of view and high resolution staring imaging, a multi-scale imaging scheme based on concentric spherical lenses has been proposed and widely used, which solves the problem of mutual constraints between large field of view and high resolution, and meets people's urgent needs for capturing large data volume information in large imaging scenes. At present, related applications are often limited by the cost and difficulty of spherical lens processing, and the focal length and aperture are limited, so the design has to sacrifice some resolution or field of view, and use small aperture or large pixel to reduce the design and processing pressure. Therefore, it is of great application value and prospect to design a large field of view imaging scheme that takes into account the multi-scale of spherical lenses, and has a high-resolution optical system with ultra-small pixels and large aperture.

[0041] The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto.
[0042] The existing multi-scale imaging system based on the concentric spherical lens structure is composed of a concentric spherical main objective lens and a secondary small camera array cascaded. Its structure is divided into two types: Keplerian and Galilean according to whether there is an intermediate image plane. Figure 1 As shown in Figure 2, the Galilean multi-scale imaging structure based on the concentric spherical lens is shown in Figure 2. Figure 2 As shown. The main objective lens of the multi-scale imaging system is a cemented spherical lens, which is used to collect light field information of a large imaging scene. The secondary imaging structure is an array of small cameras arranged in a spherical distribution at a certain distance from the spherical lens. Its envelope surface is concentric with the spherical lens. Each small camera divides the field of view and images it on the detector. Finally, large-field high-resolution image information is obtained through image stitching technology. The Keplerian-style small camera array is arranged behind the primary image plane of the spherical lens, and the Galilean-style small camera array is arranged at a certain position in front of the primary image plane of the spherical lens.
[0043] Since the concentric spherical lens has a symmetrical structure and does not have a main optical axis in the traditional sense, the aberrations of each imaging field of view are consistent. Each secondary imaging system can be regarded as coaxial imaging with the concentric optical main objective lens. Therefore, the secondary camera array can adopt the same optical structure. Therefore, it is only necessary to design the secondary imaging system of the central field of view.
[0044] However, in order to give full play to the advantages of the spherical lens that all the light collected passes through the center of the sphere, the primary image plane has only some residual on-axis aberrations, and the off-axis aberrations are negligible, the subsequent secondary imaging system adopts a small aperture and a small image plane to avoid introducing more off-axis aberrations and increase the design difficulty, and achieves large field of view and high-resolution imaging through the splicing of multiple secondary system imaging. On the one hand, this design has a large number of secondary imaging systems, and it is difficult to ensure that they are concentric with the spherical lens during the assembly process; on the other hand, due to the small aperture of a single secondary system, the energy of the detector receiving object space is limited, resulting in insufficient system imaging contrast, and unable to achieve high-resolution imaging at a long distance.
[0045] In order to solve the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides an ultra-small pixel large aperture wide area high resolution optical system, see Figure 3 The system comprises:
[0046] Concentric spherical lens 31 and large aperture secondary imaging optical system array 32.
[0047] The secondary imaging optical system array 32 includes a plurality of large aperture secondary imaging optical units 321 and ultra-large target surface small pixel detectors 322 corresponding to each secondary imaging optical unit.
[0048] The overall imaging aperture of the ultra-small pixel, large aperture, wide-area, high-resolution optical system depends on the aperture of a single secondary imaging optical unit. The large aperture secondary imaging optical system array is designed to ensure that sufficient light flux is received by the detector during long-distance imaging, while making the optical design diffusion spot close to the pixel size.
[0049] Each secondary imaging optical unit 321 is arranged behind the spherical primary image plane corresponding to the concentric spherical lens 31, and on any spherical surface with the center of the concentric spherical lens 31 as the center of the sphere, and there is an overlapping area between the fields of view of each secondary imaging optical unit 321, and the arrangement of any three adjacent secondary imaging optical units 321 is an isosceles triangle.
[0050] Specifically, each secondary imaging optical unit 321 is arranged behind the spherical primary image surface corresponding to the concentric spherical lens 31, and on the same finite distance spherical surface with the center of the concentric spherical lens 31 as the center of the sphere. The distance depends on the overall design length requirement of the ultra-small pixel large aperture wide-area high-resolution optical system.
[0051] The opening angle of the edge of the mechanical aperture of each secondary imaging optical unit 321 relative to the center of the concentric spherical lens is smaller than the maximum lateral opening angle and the maximum longitudinal opening angle between two adjacent secondary imaging optical units 321 in the secondary imaging optical system array 32 .
[0052] Among them, the maximum lateral opening angle is the angle between the optical axes of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units 321 in the secondary imaging optical system array 32 when the fields of view of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units 321 in the secondary imaging optical system array 32 are connected and do not overlap, and the maximum longitudinal opening angle is the angle between the optical axes of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units 321 in the secondary imaging optical system array 32 when the fields of view of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units 321 in the secondary imaging optical system array 32 are connected and do not overlap.
[0053] Each super-large target surface small pixel detector 322 is respectively arranged at the focal plane of the corresponding secondary imaging optical unit 321.
[0054] Specifically, the front and rear fine-tuning can be achieved through a mechanical motor to ensure accurate focus.
[0055] For example, the ultra-large target surface small pixel detector 322 uses a pixel size of , effective pixel count is 7500 The 5800's complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) chip can increase the field of view of a single secondary optical unit while ensuring high resolution, solving the problem of too many arrays causing the total system to be bulky and difficult to assemble.
[0056] The concentric spherical lens 31 is used to image the observation field of view onto a spherical primary image plane to form a spherical intermediate image.
[0057] Specifically, the concentric spherical lens 31 images the observation field of view onto the spherical primary image plane to form a spherical intermediate image and ensures uniform imaging quality of the entire primary image plane.
[0058] Each secondary imaging optical unit 321 is used to split the spherical intermediate image and image it onto a corresponding super-large target surface small pixel detector 322.
[0059] Optionally, the system further includes: an optical axis spacing between any two adjacent secondary imaging optical units 321 satisfies:

As the main imaging optical component, that is, the main objective lens, the concentric spherical lens is not only responsible for collecting light energy, but also undertakes the function of preliminary correction of aberrations, which can solve the problem of reduced edge illumination of traditional multi-aperture imaging systems.

The angle between the optical axes; each super-large target surface small pixel detector is respectively arranged behind the corresponding secondary imaging optical unit; the concentric spherical lens is used to image the observation field of view on the spherical primary image plane to form a spherical intermediate image; each secondary imaging optical unit is used to image the spherical intermediate image onto the corresponding super-large target surface small pixel detector, and each secondary imaging optical unit in the secondary imaging optical system array in the system relays the intermediate image formed by the front concentric spherical lens to the corresponding super-large target surface small pixel detector, and each secondary imaging optical unit is arranged on any spherical surface with the center of the concentric spherical lens as the sphere center. , the fields of view of each secondary imaging optical unit overlap, and then large field of view imaging is achieved by stitching the fields of view of each secondary imaging optical unit, thereby solving the problem of insufficient resolution caused by large pixels and too many secondary systems difficult to assemble and adjust due to small aperture when imaging in traditional spherical lens multi-scale imaging system. It is easy to process and assemble, and has high feasibility. It can achieve large field of view and large light flux imaging without sacrificing resolution. Furthermore, by using ultra-large target area small pixel detectors, the number of secondary imaging optical units can be effectively reduced, the cost can be reduced, the pressure on subsequent image stitching algorithms can be alleviated, and the feasibility of the entire system can be improved.
[0072] The present invention also provides a design method for an ultra-small pixel, large aperture, wide-area, high-resolution optical system. Figure 6 As shown, the method includes:
[0073] S601. Determine the concentric spherical lens according to the imaging requirements and the target size and pixel size of the selected ultra-large target small pixel detector. The imaging requirements include the working distance, target size, imaging quality, and total field of view requirements.
[0074] S602, constructing a secondary imaging optical unit according to the system focal length of the ultra-small pixel large aperture wide-area high-resolution optical system and the focal length of the constructed concentric spherical lens, and obtaining the field of view coverage of the secondary imaging optical unit.
[0075] S603, adjusting the distance between the concentric spherical lens and the secondary imaging optical unit, and the structure of the secondary imaging optical unit, so that the imaging effect of the sub-optical system composed of the concentric spherical lens and the secondary imaging optical unit meets the imaging quality required by the imaging requirements, and obtaining the distance between the secondary imaging optical unit and the center of the concentric spherical lens.
[0076] Specifically, Figure 7 As shown, represents the detector pixel size, represents the distance between the detector and the lens, Indicates the distance between the scene and the camera. Indicates the scene resolution. Figure 7In the method, the focal length of the single-channel overall optical system (i.e., a sub-optical system composed of a secondary imaging optical unit and a concentric spherical lens) can be determined according to the target size, the working distance, and the pixel size of the selected ultra-large target surface small pixel detector. The field of view of the single-channel overall optical system imaging can be determined in combination with the target surface diagonal size of the selected ultra-large target surface small pixel detector. The Airy disk radius of the single-channel overall optical system is close to the pixel size in combination with the high resolution limit, so the aperture number of the overall optical system can be determined according to the pixel size and the working band. Furthermore, since the Airy disk radius of the optical system with high resolution limit is close to the pixel size, the aperture number of the overall optical system can be determined according to the pixel size and the working band. The magnification of the overall imaging is consistent with the magnification of the secondary imaging optical unit, inversely proportional to the maximum mechanical aperture of the secondary imaging optical unit, and proportional to the focal length of the overall system. A magnification that is too large will result in a mechanical aperture of the secondary imaging optical unit that is too large, making it difficult to correct aberrations. A magnification that is too small will result in an overall focal length that is too short and insufficient resolution. It is often controlled between 0.3 and 0.7 based on experience, and the initial structure can be set to around 0.5. Furthermore, since the aperture number of the secondary imaging optical unit is the same as the aperture number of the single-channel overall optical system, the focal length of the concentric spherical lens and the aperture number of the spherical lens are determined according to the magnification and aperture number of the secondary imaging optical unit (the calculation method is the aperture number of the single-channel overall optical system divided by the magnification). Combined with the total field of view requirements, the initial solution is found through analytical methods or by scaling the existing structure, and the design parameters of the concentric spherical lens can be obtained by further optimization. The initial structure of the secondary imaging optical unit can be optimized from the existing structure according to the magnification, aperture number of the secondary imaging optical unit and the field of view of the single-channel overall optical system. The relative position between the concentric spherical lens and the secondary imaging optical unit is adjusted so that the image plane of the spherical lens coincides with the object plane of the secondary imaging optical unit. By further optimizing the structure of the secondary imaging optical unit, the imaging effect of the single-path overall optical system composed of the concentric spherical lens and the secondary imaging optical unit with a large aperture can meet the imaging quality corresponding to the imaging requirements.
[0077] S604. Determine, according to the distance between the secondary imaging optical unit and the center of the concentric spherical lens, the total field of view requirement, the field of view coverage of the secondary imaging optical unit, the preset overlapping pixel range of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units, and the preset arrangement requirement of each secondary imaging optical unit in the secondary imaging optical system array, the angle between two laterally adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array and the angle between two longitudinally adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array, as well as the number of secondary imaging optical units in each horizontal row and the number of secondary imaging optical units in each longitudinal column in the secondary imaging optical system array.
[0078] Among them, the arrangement requirements of each secondary imaging optical unit in the preset secondary imaging optical system array include: each secondary imaging optical unit is arranged behind the spherical primary image plane corresponding to the concentric spherical lens, and on any spherical surface with the center of the concentric spherical lens as the center of the sphere, and there is an overlapping area between the fields of view of each secondary imaging optical unit, and the arrangement between any three adjacent secondary imaging optical units is an isosceles triangle, and the opening angle of the edge of the mechanical aperture of each secondary imaging optical unit relative to the center of the concentric spherical lens is smaller than the maximum lateral opening angle and the maximum longitudinal opening angle between two adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array. The maximum lateral opening angle is the angle between the optical axes of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array when the fields of view of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array are connected and do not overlap, and the maximum longitudinal opening angle is the angle between the optical axes of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array when the fields of view of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array are connected and do not overlap.
[0079] In a possible implementation, according to the distance between the secondary imaging optical unit and the center of the concentric spherical lens, the total field of view requirement, the field of view coverage of the secondary imaging optical unit, the preset overlapping pixel range of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units, and the preset arrangement requirement of each secondary imaging optical unit in the secondary imaging optical system array, the angle between two transversely adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array and the angle between two longitudinally adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array are determined, including the following steps A1-A3:
[0080] A1. Determine the minimum opening angle between two adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array according to the distance between the optical axes of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array and the distance between any secondary imaging optical unit and the center of the concentric spherical lens.
[0081] The minimum aperture angle is the angle between the optical axes of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array when the mechanical apertures of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units are connected and do not overlap.
[0082] Specifically, when the mechanical apertures of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array are connected and do not overlap, the following is formed: Figure 8 In the most compact arrangement shown, the secondary imaging optical units just do not have mechanical interference, and a stable secondary imaging optical system array can be formed. At this time, the minimum opening angle between two adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array is expressed as:
[0083] ,
[0084] in, It represents the minimum opening angle between two adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array. represents the distance between the optical axes of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array, It represents the distance between any secondary imaging optical unit and the center of the concentric spherical lens.
[0085] A2. Determine the maximum lateral opening angle and the maximum longitudinal opening angle between two adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array according to the total field of view requirement and the field of view coverage of each secondary imaging optical unit.
[0086] The maximum lateral opening angle is the angle between the optical axes of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array when the fields of view of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units are connected and do not overlap.
[0087] The maximum longitudinal opening angle is the angle between the optical axes of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array when the fields of view of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units are connected and do not overlap.
[0088] Specifically, when the fields of view of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array are connected and do not overlap, the following is formed: Fig. 9 The arrangement shown is the loosest arrangement, in which the fields of view of the secondary imaging optical units do not overlap, thus avoiding omission of the field of view.
[0089] A3. Determine the angle between two laterally adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array and the angle between two longitudinally adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array according to the total field of view requirement, the field of view coverage of each secondary imaging optical unit, the preset overlapping pixel range of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units, the minimum opening angle, the maximum lateral opening angle and the maximum longitudinal opening angle.
[0090] The method provided by the present invention can control the size of the overlapping area of the field of view according to demand, thereby avoiding the problem that, during the field of view stitching process, image stitching cannot be achieved due to the overlapping area being too small, or the field of view is wasted due to the overlapping area being too large, causing design difficulty and increased processing cost.
[0091] S605. According to the angle between two transversely adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array and the angle between two longitudinally adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array, as well as the number of secondary imaging optical units in each transverse row and the number of secondary imaging optical units in each longitudinal column in the secondary imaging optical system array, the secondary imaging optical units and the ultra-large target area small pixel detectors, the secondary imaging optical system array is constructed by rotating and arranging the secondary imaging optical system array with the center of the concentric spherical lens as the origin.
[0092] Among them, the secondary imaging optical system array includes multiple secondary imaging optical units and ultra-large target surface small pixel detectors corresponding to each secondary imaging optical unit, and each ultra-large target surface small pixel detector is respectively arranged at the focal plane of the corresponding secondary imaging optical unit.
[0093] The design method of the ultra-small pixel large aperture wide-area high-resolution optical system provided by the present invention effectively solves the problem that the optical system cannot achieve a large field of view and ultra-high resolution under the conditions of small pixel and large aperture. By reasonably setting the magnification of the secondary imaging system, it can be ensured that the overall imaging system has a longer focal length; combined with the secondary large aperture and large array design, ultra-high resolution of large field of view imaging is guaranteed; at the same time, the reasonable arrangement and the number of secondary imaging optical units can be selected according to needs, thereby changing the size of the field of view, thereby meeting the needs of different users.
[0094] The method provided by the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to a specific example.
[0095] Exemplarily, the target size of the selected ultra-large target surface small pixel detector is 7500 (H) × 5800 (V), and the pixel size is 1.00um. The F number of the ultra-small pixel large aperture wide-area high-resolution optical system is 1.2, the focal length is 40mm, and the aperture is greater than 33mm. The imaging band is the visible light band (400nm-700nm), and the total field of view is ≥60°×54°. According to the target size of the selected ultra-large target surface small pixel detector and the focal length of the ultra-small pixel large aperture wide-area high-resolution optical system, the field of view of a single secondary imaging optical unit is 10.7° (H) × 8.3° (H), and the diagonal field of view is 13.5°.
[0096] Specifically, we can design an ultra-small pixel, large aperture, wide-area, high-resolution optical system using ZEMAX as a platform. To simplify the design process, we use the following Fig.10 In the field of view stitching scheme shown (only as an example here, without specific limitation), the secondary imaging optical system array is distributed on a spherical surface with a radius of L and a center of the concentric spherical lens as the center of the sphere, and the center of the concentric spherical lens is set at the virtual aperture position of the concentric spherical lens (only as an example here, without specific limitation), and the optical axis spacing between any two adjacent secondary imaging optical units satisfies . For example, Take 13.5°. Fig.10 The arrangement shown can simplify the design of the system, so that the peripheral secondary imaging systems all adopt the same structure, so that the design only needs to consider the design of the central field of view and the design of any secondary imaging optical unit at the edge. If a larger field of view is to be achieved, the number of secondary imaging optical units can be increased in the periphery.
[0097] Furthermore, in order to reduce the pressure on correcting the residual aberration of the main objective lens when designing the secondary imaging optical system array, and considering that the symmetrical structure can automatically correct coma, distortion and vertical axis chromatic aberration, a concentric spherical lens with a nearly symmetrical structure is used as the main objective lens. The focal length of the concentric spherical lens is 115mm, the field of view is greater than 83°, and the full field of view point diagram is consistent with the modulation transfer function (MTF) curve, which provides a basis for the subsequent secondary imaging optical system array aperture correction aberration. Fig.11 The spot diagram of the designed concentric spherical lens is shown. The radius of the diffuse spot at 0° field of view is , which is less than 5 pixel sizes, the half field of view and the maximum root mean square radius are also less than 5 pixel sizes, and the overall diffuse spot size of the full field of view tends to be consistent, satisfying the residual aberration conditions of the secondary correction spherical lens. Fig.12 The MTF image quality evaluation curve of the designed concentric spherical lens is shown. The full field of view curve drops smoothly, and the contrast is good at medium and low frequencies. Even at 250lp / mm, it is still 0.2, and it is not 0 at the cutoff frequency of 500lp / mm, ensuring that the detailed information can enter the detector and be interpreted.
[0098] Furthermore, considering that the ratio of the focal length of the overall ultra-small pixel large aperture wide-area high-resolution optical system to the focal length of the spherical lens is the magnification of the secondary imaging optical unit, and the object distance and aperture affect the subsequent stitching efficiency, it is finally determined that the magnification of the secondary imaging optical unit is 0.3-0.5, the F number is close to the design value of 1.2, and the field of view is 13.5°. Fig.13 The image quality MTF curve of the designed secondary imaging optical unit is shown.
[0099] Furthermore, the concentric spherical lens and the secondary imaging optical unit are combined to form a sub-optical system, and the distance between the concentric spherical lens and the secondary imaging optical unit is adjusted to determine the optimal aperture position. The structural parameters of the concentric spherical lens are kept unchanged, and the structure of the secondary imaging optical unit is further optimized to obtain a sub-optical system that meets the imaging quality requirements. Fig.14 shows the structure of the optimized sub-optical system, Fig.15 shows the spot diagram of the optimized sub-optical system, Fig.16The MTF image quality evaluation curve of the optimized sub-optical system is shown. Fig.17 The field curvature distortion curve of the optimized sub-optical system is shown. As can be seen from the above figure, the focal length of the optimized single sub-optical system is 40mm, the field of view is 13.5°, the diffuse spot of the full field of view is close to or less than the size of a pixel, the central MTF curve at the cutoff frequency of 500lp / mm is ≥0.4, the image distortion is controlled below 1%, a single sub-image has 43.5 million pixels, and the aperture is greater than 33mm, which can meet the light throughput requirements of super-resolution imaging at 3-10km.
[0100] Furthermore, since the secondary imaging optical units are all concentric with the concentric spherical lens, each optical system does not need to be redesigned. It is possible to rely on the multiple structural functions of ZEMAX to set a reasonable rotation angle to ensure that each secondary imaging optical unit has no mechanical interference and no splicing omissions. Assuming that the overlap pixels of two adjacent secondary imaging optical units are between 300 and 400, combined with the size of the target surface of the above-mentioned ultra-large target surface small pixel detector, based on trigonometric functions, it can be determined that the base angle of the isosceles triangle formed between any three adjacent secondary imaging optical units is 58 ° ,like Fig.18 As shown. Accordingly, the angle between two laterally adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array should satisfy:
[0101] ,
[0102] in, represents the horizontal field angle of the secondary imaging optical unit, which is 10.7° here; It represents the minimum opening angle between two adjacent secondary imaging optical units, which is 8.6° here.
[0103] The angle between two longitudinally adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array should satisfy:
[0104] ,
[0105] in, represents the vertical field angle of the secondary imaging optical unit, which is 8.3° here.
[0106] Exemplarily, the angle between two transversely adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array is selected to be , the angle between two longitudinally adjacent secondary imaging optical units in the secondary imaging optical system array is , the number of horizontally overlapping pixels is 357.2, and the number of vertically overlapping pixels is 344.4. The overlapping field of view angles of adjacent cameras are all 0.5°. In order to meet the requirement of field of view ≥ 60°×54°, the field of view is 10.2°×5+10.7°=61.7° when there are 6 cameras horizontally, and 7.8°×6+8.3°=55.1° when there are 7 cameras vertically. A total of 6×7+3=45 cameras are needed to meet the field of view requirements. The schematic diagram of field of view stitching is shown in the figure. Fig.19 The ultra-small pixel, large aperture, wide-area, high-resolution optical system formed in this example has a stitching field of view of up to 61°×55°, a resolution of up to 15cm@6km, a full-field diffuse spot close to the size of a pixel, and a single stitching image pixel of 43214×38533=1.665 billion. It can be seen that the design method provided by the present invention has a higher resolution, a larger aperture and a smaller pixel under the condition of ensuring a large field of view.
[0107] It should be noted that the above Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Fig.14 The different colored lines passing through the lens represent the incident light rays at different angles. For ease of viewing, only a small number of rays are drawn in the figure, and the number of rays in actual applications will not be limited to this.

For ordinary technicians in the technical field to which the present invention belongs, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which should be regarded as falling within the protection scope of the present invention.
