Homework Statement
I have a system like image below
An object 1 (OP = Object plane) is projected onto the image plane 1 (IMP) where an eye is located, with a beam splitter (BS). This eye is also looking at some object at distance far away. I would like to magnify this image of the object at the distance. How can I do this?
Homework Equations
Lens formula,
1/OP + 1/IMP = 1/f.
Where the magnification is M = -IMP/OP or h_image/h_object
OP = distance of object to lens
IMP = distance of image plane of object to lens
f = focal length of lens
The Attempt at a Solution
I think a biconvex lens would work to create the magnification of the image of the object you are looking at. However I am unsure how to use it when you might look at objects at different distances. If you are looking at an object at different distances does the focal length of the lens have to change with it?
And does the beamsplitter affect the image at the object at the distance?
EDIT: updated attempt of solution and equations.
