Achromatic Lenses have revolutionized the field of optics by mitigating the adverse effects of chromatic aberration, making them invaluable tools for achieving precise imaging and focus correction. Their impact can be seen across various domains, from space exploration to medical research. As technology continues to advance, Achromatic Lenses will undoubtedly play an essential role in shaping the future of precision optics and imaging applications.

Achromaticdoublet meaning

I’ll have to give it another go later when I’m not printing. I didn’t spend a lot of time trying to debug when I first connected it.

Achromaticcolor

I tried to connect my Wyze camera to that USB port to power it up, but it didn’t work for me. Supposedly the port can handle 1.5A and I thought the cameras was 1A max supply, but no luck.

Telescopes: Achromatic Lenses play a crucial role in astronomical telescopes, allowing astronomers to observe celestial objects with enhanced clarity and color fidelity.

Chromatic aberration occurs due to the different wavelengths of light refracting at varying angles when passing through an optical lens. This dispersion leads to color fringing and reduces the sharpness and clarity of the resulting image. Blue light, with its shorter wavelength, is refracted more than red light, which has a longer wavelength. The result is a visible spectrum of colors at the edges of objects, making them appear blurred and distorted.

Achromaticdoublet formula

Sure it would have been nice for it to support USB storage, but it’s a pretty weedy processor, and I’m not even sure that the variant they’re using has hardware USB-OTG support.

Achromaticlens

Achromatic doublet lenses are focusing components used in laboratory and medical devices to reduce chromatic aberrations from broadband light sources. A doublet is typically composed of two individual lenses with varying levels of dispersion, fused together and shaped so that the chromatic aberration of one is counteracted by another. Firebird accomplishes this by fusing one concave and one convex lens together into a compound assembly.

I get the impression it was added as a “why not” addition, with a USB port being a pretty standardised connector for powering things these days.

Laser Systems: These lenses are used in laser systems to focus and direct laser beams without compromising their coherence and color purity.

mowcius, I believe his is using that port for the 5V supply. By observation the data lines are not connected due to the series resistor are not installed.

Apochromaticaberration

Microscopes: In microscopy, Achromatic Lenses improve the resolution and minimize color distortion, enabling researchers to study minute biological structures with precision.

Photography: Achromatic Lenses are employed in high-quality camera lenses to produce sharp and well-defined images, free from chromatic aberrations.

Curious that connecting that didn’t work. It should just be a dumb 5V 1.5A supply, and the Wyze cam doesn’t even really require the full 1A that the supplied PSU can provide.

I have connected a cheap wifi IP camera to this USB port. It works without any problems. The Android app for it also works under Windows 11 in the Windows subsystem for Android in a window on the desktop.

Monochromaticaberration

Optical lenses are components that focus or disperse a light beam toward or away from specific targets. Lenses are made from materials that are transparent across specific wavelength ranges depending on the application. Optical lenses can be crafted with various properties such as Plano-Convex or Bi-Convex, which focuses light on a point while Plano-Concave and Double-Concave diverges the light beams.

While Achromatic Lenses significantly reduce chromatic aberration, they are not perfect. In some cases, residual chromatic aberration may remain, especially in lenses designed for broader spectral ranges. Additionally, Achromatic Lenses are sensitive to off-axis aberrations, which can impact image quality in wide-angle applications.

However, in my opinion (which I hope is what this forum supports) Bambu Labs does not respond well to requests for changes. A good example is the request for a wired data connection. They do publish a list of changes when new software is provided so that is a very good thing. It would just be nice if the list would be available on the forum so folks would see what is coming.

Sphericalaberration

If you take a look at the board I believe you will see USB data pins are hooked up to the board and the two resistors in the data lines have not been placed, hence the board is likely able to accept data. Note this is the board that when the user replaces it must provide data back to Bambu Lab so that the board is “unlocked” and can be used.

The quest to overcome chromatic aberration led to the development of Achromatic Lenses in the early 18th century. Famed mathematician and physicist Sir Isaac Newton was among the first to observe and attempt to correct this issue. However, it was not until the late 18th century that notable opticians such as John Dollond made significant progress in designing Achromatic Lenses.

There are two main types of achromatic lenses: the achromatic doublet and the achromatic triplet. The achromatic doublet consists of two lens elements, while the achromatic triplet utilizes three. The triplet design offers better correction of chromatic aberration and spherical aberration, but it is more challenging to manufacture and align accurately.

Achromatic lenses are constructed using a combination of two or more lens elements made from different types of glass. Typically, a positive lens made from a crown glass and a negative lens made from a flint glass are combined to form an achromatic lens pair. The crown glass element has a lower refractive index, while the flint glass element has a higher dispersion rate. By carefully selecting the curvature and thickness of these elements, the lens designer can precisely cancel out the chromatic aberration at a specific wavelength or over a broad spectrum, depending on the application.

Apochromatic vsachromatic

In the realm of precision optics, achromatic lenses have become indispensable tools, allowing scientists, engineers, and photographers to achieve high-quality imaging and focus correction. These lenses are designed to minimize chromatic aberration, a common optical phenomenon that causes color fringing and reduces image sharpness. Achromatic lenses are widely used in various applications, from astronomical telescopes to high-resolution microscopes, ensuring that light dispersion is effectively corrected. In this article, we will delve into the principles, design, and applications of achromatic lenses, highlighting their vital role in advancing modern optics.

It’s a pity that you can’t connect a USB stick to the USB port. The solution with the micro USB card is not really practical.

I am using wyze cam og without any issues to monitor the prints. Produces decent time lapses and very fast video feed connection. IMG_20230308_1510521920×2560 251 KB IMG_20230308_1510262736×3648 457 KB 2023_03_19_10_21_441920×1080 154 KB

Aspheric lenses contain at least one surface that is neither cylindrical or spherical and are used to correct spherical aberration while chromatic lenses are used to correct color/chromatic aberrations.
