131 results about "Zoom lens" patented technology

A zoom lens is a mechanical assembly of lens elements for which the focal length (and thus angle of view) can be varied, as opposed to a fixed focal length (FFL) lens (see prime lens). A true zoom lens, also called a parfocal lens, is one that maintains focus when its focal length changes.. Most consumer zoom lenses do not maintain perfect focus, but are still parfocal designs.

This application discloses a high-precision error compensation method for the optical axis of a continuous zoom lens, relating to the field of lens inspection. The continuous zoom system is disassembled into independent components and mounted on a rotating stage centering fixture. Static center offset data for each component is calculated by rotating and acquiring the image point trajectory circle. Sampling parameters are set according to the zoom ratio of the continuous zoom system and the movement speed of each component along the optical axis during zooming, while simultaneously acquiring dynamic optical axis offset data of the components. A nonlinear mapping relationship is constructed between the static center offset data and the dynamic optical axis offset data, and a center offset-optical axis error coupling model is established. Based on the deviation compensation amount, the actuator is driven to adjust the position and / or angle of the components, and the optical axis accuracy index is verified after compensation. This solution achieves deep coupling between static and dynamic data, improving the accuracy of error tracing and the specificity of compensation; ensuring coverage of key error locations during zooming; supporting real-time compensation, and enhancing the stability and accuracy of the system during zooming.
