    Lenses System
AI Thread Summary
To create an effective collimator lens system for converting diverging rays from an LCD into parallel rays, a multi-lens approach is recommended to minimize aberrations, specifically aspherical and chromatic. The design should incorporate lenses with varying focal lengths and refractive indices to enhance performance. A focal length of approximately 130 cm is desired for this application. Sketching the setup may help clarify the arrangement and interactions of the lenses. Overall, a well-designed lens system can significantly improve image quality by reducing optical aberrations.

I want to make a collimator lens which can convert the diverging rays from and LCD at finite distance screen into parallel rays.
But in order to reduce the aberrations, using system of lens is preferable than using a single lens. Can you suggest the way to create this kind of system please. I need focal length around 130 cm.

You know the formula from the preceding thread ...

What aberrations, precisely ?

Make a sketch of the situation !

first of all thanks for helping.
Aberration types are nothing but Aspherical and Chromatic.
Any lens will definitely create some aberration but we don't want that right ? So I Found somewhere that using system of lens which have different focal length and different refractive index instead of a single lens reduces aberration. So my question is that how can we make system of lenses which can collimate a LCD image.

How are you related to the other/first user @DhruvSorathiya ?

I'm guessing what you are already thinking ... :wink: :biggrin:
 
After my surgery this year, gas remained in my eye for a while. The light air bubbles appeared to sink to the bottom, and I realized that the brain was processing the information to invert the up/down/left/right image transferred to the retina. I have a question about optics and ophthalmology. Does the inversion of the image transferred to the retina depend on the position of the intraocular focal point of the lens of the eye? For example, in people with farsightedness, the focal point is...
