Lens design : automatic and quasi-autonomous computational methods and techniques /

Lens Design: Automatic and Quasi-Autonomous Computational Methods and Techniques is the first book that interactively describes the newest modern lens design tools. Detailing design methods for a variety of lens forms, this book shows that fixed focus and zoom lenses can be optimized, starting from...
