1) The document provides an introduction to basic optical concepts including refraction, total internal reflection, Fresnel reflection losses, blackbody radiation, color mixing, and the human eye response.
2) It describes Lambertian and uniform emitters and their radiation patterns. Lambertian emitters radiate light uniformly in all directions from a surface, while uniform emitters radiate light uniformly in solid angle.
3) The document discusses several nonimaging optics design rules for efficiently transferring light from a source to a target, including flux, etendue, and luminance conservation as well as the edge ray principle.
The document summarizes the design of a flashlight collimating system. It discusses properties of LED emitters and the objective to collimate light into a bright hotspot to increase throw. A collimating system typically uses a reflector, lens, or optics combination. Reflectors can vary the depth to diameter ratio to control hotspot size and spill light. Lenses can form a sharp image of the emitter but require addressing chromatic aberration. Optics provide more flexibility and allow total internal reflection for high efficiency. The document proposes improving reflective coatings and developing optimized reflector-like optics.
The document analyzes three production spotlights (TIR lenses) and compares their performance to equivalent Eco-TIR lenses designed using BrightBurst's Eco-Lens design system. Simulation results show the Eco-TIR lenses produce brighter, more uniform illuminance distributions with no hotspots compared to the production lenses, increasing brightness by up to 2.7 times. The Eco-TIR lenses achieve superior performance using simpler, single-sided injection molded designs compared to production lenses which use additional complex lens features and diffusion.
A zoom lens design method, july 3, 2013Dave Shafer
This document describes the steps taken to design a compact zoom lens with a focal length range of 8-30mm and constant f-number of 2.8. The design process began with a simple monochromatic design using aspherics, which was then optimized. Aspheric lenses were replaced one by one with equivalent spherical doublets. Groups were achromatized separately, first the moving groups and then the fixed groups. The final design was fully color corrected but unable to focus close objects. The designer may need to backtrack to an earlier monochromatic design stage to solve the focusing issue before continuing color correction.
The document introduces the Eco-Lens design system for improving LED flashlights. It summarizes three common flashlight designs and their limitations, then demonstrates through examples how Eco-Lens reflector designs can provide brighter and more uniform illumination compared to traditional designs, while allowing for smaller packaging. Specific benefits shown include up to 60% brighter illumination within the same or tighter beam, more tailored spillbeam properties, and the ability to immediately replace existing reflectors for improved performance.

The document discusses lenses and the lens equation. It defines key terms like focal length, object distance, and image distance. The lens equation relates these variables: 1/f = 1/xo + 1/xi. Examples are given of using the lens equation to calculate the location and type of image formed for different object distances. Magnification is also defined and calculated using the lens and image distances. The power of a lens is introduced in units of diopters, which is the reciprocal of the focal length in meters.
1) Optical design techniques include investigating multiple versions of simple designs to find the best one, as different versions can have tradeoffs in higher-order aberrations.
2) Stop shift theory is a useful technique for creating new designs by finding aperture stop positions that correct specific aberrations, such as lateral color, even if the final stop position is constrained.
3) Combining simple optical systems with useful properties, such as common axial color cancellation, is a way to develop new complex corrected designs like the CMO (catadioptric, mirror, objective) type.
Broad band catadioptric design with long working distanceDave Shafer
A broad spectral band high NA catadioptric design is developed that has a long working distance. The design is developed from first principles and the evolution of the design shows what the process of lens design is like.
This document discusses key concepts around reflection and refraction of light, including:
- The law of reflection which states that the angle of reflection equals the angle of incidence.
- The difference between regular and diffuse reflection off of smooth and rough surfaces.
- How refraction causes a change in speed and direction of light when passing between different media, as explained by Snell's law.
- Total internal reflection that occurs when light passes from a denser to less dense medium at an angle greater than the critical angle.
- Dispersion which is the separation of light into the visible spectrum due to differing refractive indices.
- How rainbows form through the dispersion and reflection of light within water droplets.
The document discusses the history of the invention of the achromatic lens, which corrects chromatic aberration by using two lenses made of different glass types with different dispersions. In the early 1700s, British mathematician Chester Hall figured out the formula to correct color this way but did not know if suitable glasses existed. He later discovered by accident that eyeglasses used two different glass types. Hall contracted with two opticians to secretly make prototype lenses to prove his theory, but both subcontracted the work to George Bass, who assembled the lenses and discovered they eliminated chromatic aberration. John Dolland overheard of this and patented the invention, becoming rich.
The document discusses interference of light waves. It defines key terms like phase difference, path difference, coherence and describes the principles of constructive and destructive interference. Interference in thin films of uniform and non-uniform thickness is explained. Specific applications of the wedge method are described, including determining the thickness of a paper or other thin film by measuring the fringe width in a wedge-shaped air film.
Interference occurs when two or more waves pass through the same space and can be constructive or destructive. Constructive interference occurs when waves are in phase and amplitudes add, while destructive interference occurs when waves are out of phase and amplitudes cancel. Light interference can be observed using Young's double slit experiment, which uses a coherent monochromatic light source like a laser. The experiment produces bright and dark interference fringes that can be used to determine wavelength according to the equation dsinθ=mλ. Diffraction gratings produce sharper interference patterns than double slits and allow measuring the wavelengths of light in a spectrum.
This article describes the principle and phenomenon of polarization of light. This article also illustrates on Birefringence, Dichroism and crossed polarizers.

It shows examples achieving various specifications like being diffraction limited or having specific fields of view and focal lengths.
Refraction of light at spherical surfaces of lensesMukesh Tekwani
This document contains 15 important theory questions about refraction of light at spherical surfaces and lenses. It includes questions about sign convention in optics, the optical center of a lens, focal length of concave and convex lenses, lens maker's formula, derivation of expressions for refraction at single spherical surfaces and thin lens combinations, linear magnification by a lens, location of a virtual image formed by a convex lens based on focal length, dependence of focal length on wavelength, definition and unit of power of a lens, definition of 1 dioptre, formula for combined power of two lenses in contact, and laws governing image formation by lenses. The questions cover key concepts like derivation, definition, diagrams, formulas, and image formation.
By using a diffractive surface to provide most of the focusing power, combined with aspheric lenses, a simple fast speed wide angle design is possible with excellent image quality. But a very large amount of color limits the useful spectral bandwidth to a very small amount.

This document describes a technique for relating aberration errors in lens systems to final image quality by analyzing image spot size. It uses three example lens systems - a singlet, doublet, and triplet - to image the facade of the New York Public Library. The triplet produces the smallest image spots closest to the diffraction limit, resulting in the highest quality photograph. Analyzing aberrations in terms of overlapping image spot size provides intuitive insight into how aberrations affect image quality that is easier for non-specialists to understand than technical reports on aberration coefficients alone.

Before LEDs, if we measured illuminance with a quality lux meter that was in good condition and calibrated, there was a high level of confidence that the reading it gave was an accurate representation of what you saw with your eye. However the introduction of phosphor based LED lighting has brought that into question due to their strong blue light component. This presentation will look at some of the recommendations given when measuring LED light, such as applying a SP ratio and reflect on its effectiveness. It will also detail a method for simulating the illuminance reading that a lux meter will give and use it to compare and contrast the performance of a variety of lux meters under different lighting conditions, including LED light.

A compressive approach to light field synthesis with projection devices. We propose a novel, passive screen design that is combined with high-speed light field projection and nonnegative light field factorization. We demonstrate that the projector can alternatively achieve super-resolved and high dynamic range 2D image display when used with a conventional screen.
The document discusses light emitting diodes (LEDs). It explains that LEDs use a semiconductor diode to emit narrow-spectrum light instead of a filament. The wavelength and color of light depends on the composition of the semiconducting material. An LED consists of a doped semiconductor chip that creates a p-n junction, allowing current to flow easily from p-side to n-side. Common uses of LEDs include status indicators, traffic lights, and flashlights. LEDs have advantages over incandescent lights like longer lifespan, lower energy use, and availability in many colors. Potential future uses include home and vehicle lighting as LED technology continues to improve.
3D Cinema Changing Audience Perception and Challenges3D Storytelling
Adam Sheridan of Ipsos OTX MediaCT shares key highlights from the Film Distributors’ Association Cinema tracking research about changing interest from audiences in the 3D theatrical experience and what distributors and film-makers can do to best capitalise on the format.
Optical fibers are thin strands of glass or plastic that guide light along their length via total internal reflection. They have three main parts - a core with a higher refractive index surrounded by a cladding and outer protective sheath. Light is confined to the core due to the difference in refractive indices, allowing transmission with very low loss. Optical fibers come in single mode and multimode varieties depending on the number of light modes they can carry simultaneously. Single mode fibers have a small core and support only one mode, enabling high bandwidth transmission over long distances. Multimode fibers have larger cores and support multiple modes, making them suitable for short-distance applications.

3. Young's double-slit experiment demonstrated the wave nature of light by producing an interference pattern of alternating bright and dark fringes on a screen. The experiment led to an understanding of how interference causes the colors seen in thin films like oil films and soap bubbles.
Refraction And Total Internal Reflection Internetmrmeredith
This document discusses keyhole surgery and fiber optics. It provides two key points:
1) Keyhole surgery involves using two optical fibers - one to illuminate the inside of the patient and one for a camera to send images back to the doctor, allowing surgery to be performed through small incisions.
2) In medieval times, surgeons would open up patients to see what was wrong, whereas modern keyhole surgery uses these optical fibers to perform stomach cancer operations through small incisions.
1. Young's experiment demonstrated interference using a single wavefront that was split into two coherent secondary sources by passing the wavefront through two slits. The overlapping waves from the two slits interfered and produced an interference pattern.
2. Thin film interference occurs when a beam of light is split by reflection and transmission at the interfaces of a thin film. The optical path difference between the reflected and transmitted beams depends on factors like the film thickness and refractive indices, leading to constructive or destructive interference and the appearance of colored fringes.
3. Interferometers like Michelson's use arrangements of mirrors and beamsplitters to split a light beam into two paths that recombine to produce interference patterns, which can
The document discusses illumination models in computer graphics. It covers direct illumination from light sources and scattering at surfaces. It also discusses global illumination techniques like shadows, reflections and refractions using ray tracing. Common lighting models include point lights, directional lights and spot lights for light sources, and Lambertian and Phong reflection models for surfaces.

Hands-on activities are suggested to help understand how prisms refract different wavelengths of light.
This document discusses key concepts in photometry and illumination. It defines luminous flux, luminous intensity, illuminance, and luminance. It explains that luminous flux is a measure of total light power, luminous intensity measures the directionality of light, illuminance is the amount of light falling on a surface, and luminance measures the brightness of a surface. It also discusses the inverse square law and cosine law governing illuminance and how filters can selectively transmit wavelengths of light.
This document discusses the principles and formulas related to refraction and lenses. It defines refraction as the change in direction of light when passing from one medium to another.

The document discusses diffraction, including single-slit diffraction, diffraction gratings, and applications. It begins with an introduction to diffraction and the diffraction of light through a single slit. Key points are made about the conditions that produce constructive and destructive interference. Next, it discusses diffraction gratings and the equations that describe the diffraction maxima for gratings. Finally, it provides examples of applications like spectroscopy and using diffraction to study materials.
This document discusses fundamentals of imaging and image processing. It describes features of human vision including the retina, cones, and rods. Cones are sensitive to color while rods provide a general picture. Images are formed in the eye based on the height and focal length. The human visual system can adapt to a wide range of light intensities but can only perceive a small sub-range at a time. Electromagnetic waves carry energy proportional to their frequency. Digital images are discrete functions defined over a spatial domain with intensity values. Image formation depends on illumination and reflectance. Sampling digitizes spatial coordinates while quantization digitizes intensities into discrete levels. The sampling theorem establishes that a signal can be reconstructed from samples if the sampling rate exceeds
1. The document discusses key concepts in ray optics including refraction, Snell's law, total internal reflection, and refraction at spherical surfaces.

3. Refraction, reflection, and image formation using lenses and prisms are examined.
Michelson's interferometer uses the principle of division of amplitude to create interference fringes. Light from a source is split into two beams using a half-silvered beam splitter. The beams travel different paths and reflect off mirrors before recombining, creating an interference pattern of fringes. The shape and spacing of the fringes depends on the relative positions and orientations of the mirrors. Michelson's interferometer can be used to measure small changes in distance and determine the wavelength of monochromatic light by counting the number of fringes that shift when a mirror is moved a known amount.
The document discusses key concepts about light, including that it travels as a wave, undergoes reflection and refraction, and has different speeds in different materials. Reflection occurs when light bounces off a surface, following the law that the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection. Refraction is when light changes speed and bends as it passes from one material to another with a different density, according to Snell's law. Total internal reflection occurs when light traveling through a denser medium hits the boundary at an angle greater than the critical angle and is reflected back inside.
This article discusses the basics of Interference phenomenon of light. Young's Double Slit Experiment is discussed to understand the phenomenon of Interference and also to understand the wave behaviour of light. Newton's Ring experiment, Lloyd's Mirror experiment, Fresnel's Biprism experiment are studued here to establish the wave nature of light. Also the bright and the dark fringes and there mathematical expressions are elaborated here in this article.
- X-ray interferometry could enable unprecedented resolution, improving on the Hubble Space Telescope by orders of magnitude. Laboratory tests have demonstrated interferometry is possible using simple configurations of grazing incidence flats/mirrors. A space-based observatory design is proposed using an array of flats separated by distances up to kilometers to form fringes and image celestial sources. The technique could have applications for high-contrast imaging of exoplanets by taking advantage of reduced scattering at grazing incidence angles.
On Monday, 14 November, 2011, AFIT hosted Prof. Sir John Pendry as the guest speaker at the second AFOSR 60th Anniversary Commemorative Seminar Series.
Light, through our eyes, gives us the most direct means of observing the world. Using a microscope we can see many objects invisible to the naked eye, but even the microscope has its limitations as it is impossible with a conventional microscope to resolve anything smaller than the wavelength of light. Typically this sets a resolution limit of about 0.5 microns. To improve this and get inside the wavelength,scientists have been seeking a deeper understanding of light and its component electric and magnetic fields. We can now give a theoretical prescription for the perfect lens that has no limits to resolution.
Watch Sir John Pendry as he discusses recent progress and describes some experiments that bring light to an intense focus much smaller than the free space wavelength.
Sir John Pendry is a condensed matter theorist. He is the Chair in Theoretical Solid State Physics at the Imperial College of London where he has worked since 1981. He has worked extensively on electronic and structural properties of surfaces developing the theory of low energy diffraction and electronic surface states. His interest in transport in disordered systems produced a complete theory of the statistics of transport in one dimensional systems. In 1992, he turned his attention to photonic materials, which in 2000, culminated in a proposal for a perfect lens whose resolution is unlimited by wavelength. These concepts have stimulated further theoretical investigations and many experiments which have confirmed the predicted properties. In 2006, his collaboration with David Smith at Duke University proposed a recipe for a cloak that can hide an arbitrary object from electromagnetic fields. Several realizations of this concept have been built with some operating at radar and others at visible wavelengths.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

• All radiation which can be see with the eye is considered light
(approx. 400nm to 750nm)
– Radiation is measured in radiometric units, and
– Light is measured in photometric units.
• The sensitivity of the eye is dependant on the wavelength of the
light (e.g. the eye is 10,000 times more sensitive to 555nm-Green
13
light (e.g. the eye is 10,000 times more sensitive to 555nm-Green
than to 750nm-Red).
• The response of the eye is logarithmic (high dynamic range).
• The average human eye can only see the difference of a factor of
two to one in intensity (the eye is a bad detector).

Edge Ray Principle
31
The edge-ray principle states that, in order to couple an
emitted ray bundles by means of an optical system to a
target ray bundle, it is sufficient to connect the edge-ray
subsets.
In simpler words:
If the optical systems is designed to transmit the source

33. • The Machband describes an effect where the human mind subconsciously
increases the contrast between two surfaces with different luminance=>
good for distinghuising objects and detecting illuminance steps
• Mach banding is caused by lateral inhibition of the receptors in the eye. As
receptors receive light they draw light-sensitive chemical compounds from
adjacent regions, thus inhibiting the response of receptors in those regions.
