AI Technical Summary
In the existing multi-band Kuder optical path imaging optoelectronic equipment, the parallelism between the multi-light-integrated optical axis and the azimuth axis is complicated during the assembly and adjustment process, and the error of the 45° reflector causes the overall vertical error to double, making it difficult to achieve high precision and stability.
Design a high-precision axial vertical infinity target device that can be used for both visible light and infrared. The device uses a Cassegrain collimator as the infinity target device, combined with a high-stability dedicated base frame and a split design. The optical axis of the Cassegrain collimator is aligned vertically using a theodolite calibration method.
It simplifies the difficulty of vertical alignment of the multi-optical-integrated optical axis, improves the assembly and alignment process, and achieves high-precision parallelism and stability between the multi-optical-integrated optical axis and the azimuth axis, with the vertical error controlled within 2 arcseconds.
