Manufacturing techniques for microlens array structures

PendingUS20250311450A1EngineeringMicro lens array
A process for manufacturing microlens arrays includes the following steps. A preform for a microlens array is created. The preform includes an array of first dome shapes corresponding to microlenses in the microlens array. The domes shapes may be different in size and / or shape than the final microlenses to account for subsequent manufacturing steps. Atomic layer deposition is used to deposit a conformal layer on the array of first dome shapes to create an array of second dome shapes. This can be used as a master form for manufacturing the microlens array. For example, the shape of the master may be transferred to a stamp, and the stamp pressed into lens material to create the microlens array.

Ovoid vehicle photographic booth

A vehicle photographic booth is provided that accommodates cameras with lenses with focal lengths that avoid wide angle distortion that is common in low end car photography. The photographic booth has an ovoid hemispherical dome shape with a camera mounted at the apex of the ovoid portion so as to accommodate longer focal length lenses. The overall dimension of the ovoid section of the dome for placement of a camera is determined by the available floor space of a user. The use of an enclosed ovoid hemispherical dome shape that rotates with respect to a stationary stage, or in the alternative a fixed enclosed ovoid hemispherical dome with a rotating stage allows for much less light to be needed as compared to a full open volume. An ovoid shape also provides a smaller fixed footprint than a full structure for an equal camera distance from a subject.
