Spiral. Condizione: new. Spiral. The past two decades have seen significant innovation in teaching methods for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. This innovation has been driven by development of new educational technologies and methods that were accelerated in 2020 and 2021 by the explosion of remote teaching due to COVID-19. The teaching of optics, being a highly specialized STEM field, has much in common with other areas, but has its own unique challenges. This volume explores individual experiences with the development of methods and their application to the teaching of optics, especially in higher education. The volume is dedicated to the memory of Professor John Greivenkamp, who passed away in early 2022 and was among the best known and most passionate educators of optics in the world.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The speckle phenomenon is ubiquitous, occurring in all regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, as well as in both ultrasound and synthetic-aperture-radar imaging. Speckle occurs whenever radiation is reflected from a surface that is rough on the scale of a wavelength, or is passed through a diffusing surface that introduces random path-length delays on the scale of a wavelength. This book is devoted to simulation of speckle phenomena using the software package Mathematica. Various techniques for simulating speckle are discussed. Simulation topics include first-order amplitude and intensity statistics, speckle phenomena in both imaging and free-space propagation, speckle at low light levels, polarization speckle, phase vortices in speckle, and speckle metrology methods.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This book is an English translation of Die Lehre von der Bildentstehung im Mikroskop von Ernst Abbe, the only published detailed account of Abbe's theory of image formation in the microscope. The original German edition, written and published by Otto Lummer and Fritz Reiche in 1910, was an expanded version of the lectures given by Abbe in 1887. The book presents an introduction to geometrical optics, discusses image formation theory based on optical diffraction, and deals with optical images of several kinds of objects being illuminated on and off axis. It also introduces coherent imaging as two back-to-back diffraction processes and discusses the resolution limit of an imaging system. The book concludes with a discussion of the effect of artificial blocking of certain diffraction orders on the final image.This translation, which includes annotations and other added material, can serve as a self-study book for readers who wish to learn optics and optical image formation. It is also a tribute to the original authors' scientific achievements and devotion to the teaching and dissemination of precious knowledge.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This book demonstrates how to design an optical system using Ansys Zemax OpticStudio, a full-featured optical design program. The complete design process from lens definition to tolerancing is developed and illustrated using the program. This text is not a user's manual for Zemax OpticStudio. Rather, it starts with a single lens to demonstrate the laws of geometrical optics and illustrate basic optical errors (aberrations) with the software.Through a series of examples and exercises, one can follow each step in the design process to analyze and optimize the system to meet the required performance specifications. The text is organized to help readers (1) reproduce each step of the process, including the plots for evaluating lens performance, and (2) understand the significance of these plots in constructing a final design.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Illumination is a crucial element in many applications, matching the luminance of the scene with the operational range of a camera. When luminance cannot be adequately controlled, a high dynamic range (HDR) imaging system may be necessary. These systems are being increasingly used in automotive on-board systems, road traffic monitoring, and other industrial, security, and military applications. This book provides readers with an intermediate discussion of HDR image sensors and techniques for industrial and non-industrial applications. It describes various sensor and pixel architectures capable of achieving HDR imaging, as well as software approaches to make high dynamic range images out of lower dynamic range sensors or image sets. Some methods for automatic control of exposure and dynamic range of image sensors are also introduced. This edition introduces CMOS pixel and image sensor design concepts and circuits.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Infrared science cameras are complex instruments that require extensive training to use correctly to measure apparent temperatures, radiance and radiant intensity correctly, and this also applies to the software that interfaces to these cameras. The users of these cameras often require extensive customer support and training, which can be augmented with written material that goes beyond the usual user guides. The Ultimate Infrared Radiometry Handbook for R&D Professionals started as a collection of application notes written by the author to help bridge the gap between the user guides for FLIR scientific cameras and the user guide for ResearchIR, FLIR's former science camera software. The author organized the application notes into chapters of a PDF which was released in 2021 and an extensive rewrite and update in 2024 for FLIR Research Studio software included new material. This book was written with FLIR cameras and software in mind, but the underlying principals apply to any radiometrically calibrated infrared camera system. Infrared science cameras demand detailed training to accurately measure apparent temperatures and radiance. The handbook bridges the gap left by standard user guides with evolved application notes and updated software insights, offering key principles applicable to any radiometrically calibrated infrared camera system.
