and aberration design. During paraxial lens design
Gaussian brackets and matrix optics are adopted
with which the relationship between component interval distances and component focal lengths can be easily determined. A lens module classification model is trained
with which the lens type can be determined from its thin lens parameters. More than 80% of the lens components have been successfully classified by the classification model. Mixed lens modules
namely thin lens modules and thick lens modules
are applied for aberration design of lens components
with which the component aberrations can be easily balanced and some practical considerations
such as interval distances between lens elements and components collisions
can be handled simultaneously. At last
an example is provided
which shows the detailed procedure of zoom lens design using mixed lens modules.
