Abstract:Stock lenses are attractive components in optical system design, offering lower cost and ready availability when compared to custom lenses. However, the lack of effective (optimization) tools to design systems with stock lenses often leads to a manual, thus time-consuming and highly iterative design process with low success rate and clearly non-ideal results.In this work, we present an automatic optical design tool that uses only stock lenses from known suppliers to generate lens systems directly from the spec… Show more
