  • Compensation of optical aberrations caused by non-planar windows
    Patent number: 9664825
    Abstract: The specification and drawings present a new apparatus and a new apparatus for compensation of the optical aberrations caused by a non-planar window (or windows in general, for example windows having a curved surface) using a diffractive (optical) element such as a diffractive foil in electronic/camera devices such as electronic devices with displays. According to an embodiment, an optical window of an electronic device/camera may have at least a non-planar front surface which causes an aberration of an input image. This aberration can be corrected to be below predefined one or more parameters (such as a circle with a predefined maximum radius and/or a directional shift by a predefined maximum value) using a diffractive element/foil located on/near a back surface of the optical window or between the back surface of the optical window and a sensor/camera image plane where the input image is focused on.
