Image Distortion, between Unwanted Geometric Aberration and the Tool Used to Improve Observation Equipment Performance

Article Preview

Abstract:

An distortion aberration free optical system forms an orthoscopic image mean that is similar to original object, undeformed. Naturally imply that most optical systems are designed so that the image distortion is minimal, not to cause inconvenience to the user about either the object appearance – when it comes to a camera or camcorder, or the deformities that may cause measurement errors – when it comes to optical measurement and control equipment. However there are situations when distortion is desired to improve some performances of the observation optical system. In this article we present how distortion is used to increase the field of view, and also how distortion is used to optimize the field of view – resolution compromise.
