A Model of Efficiency

'Top-down' optical design and advances in the manufacture of precision optics combine to optimize fiber optic illumination and projection displays.

Karlheinz Strobl and Michael Thomas

Product advances based on classical illumination technology have primarily correlated with advances in lamp technologies: higher brightness, shorter arc and/ or higher pressure. But rethinking the design of an illumination system can advance the state of the art independent of lamp development: Many small improvements in optical efficiency can add up to considerable increases in performance. Optical designers know that aspherical components and nonstandard manufacturing technologies can improve the performance, weight and size of an imaging system. For illumination systems (e.g.,...Read full article
