  • Publication number: 20220171270
    Abstract: An imaging projection system that can project uniform illumination onto a light modular while keeping the point spread function small. A Fourier optical system can be inserted between two uniformization structures so that when light passes the through the system, the light output is uniform both in spatial-and angular space.

  • Patent number: 9229300
    Abstract: A lens position adjustment system (10) permits adjustment of the position of a projection lens (5) relative to a projector (100) for making a Scheimpflug adjustment. The projection lens (5) has an optical axis (6). The system (10) comprises: a first support part (20) for fitting to, or forming part of, the projector (100); a second support part (40) for fitting to, or forming part of, the projection lens (5); and a connecting part (30). The connecting part (30) is pivotally connected to the first support part (20) and pivotally connected to the second support part (40) and configured to permit independent adjustment of the second support part (40) relative to the first support part (20) about two axes of rotation (7, 8) which intersect, and are perpendicular to, the optical axis (6) of the projection lens (5). A locking mechanism (28, 29, 51-58) is provided for securing a position of the second support part (40) relative to the first support part (20).

  • Publication number: 20140233109
    Abstract: A method and device is described for compensating ambient temperature dependent magnification and focus change of a zoom lens system, whereby an ambient temperature compensation structure cooperates with a rotational ring and an optical-element adjusting member such that a phase variation between the rotational ring and the optical-element adjusting member in response to an ambient temperature change is compensated and whereby the phase variation characterizes an optical property of the zoom lens system such as magnification or focus.
