Abstract
An optical assembly for a point action camera with a wide field of view includes multiple lens elements configured to provide a field of view in excess of 150 degrees. One or more lens elements has an aspheric surface. The optical assembly exhibits a low inward field curvature of less than 75 microns.
Claims81
An optical assembly for a point action camera having a wide field of view, comprising multiple lens elements including an aspheric surface, configured to provide a field of view in excess of 150 degrees that comprises an inward field curvature of less than 50 microns,
- wherein the optical assembly comprises from object end to image end a first optical group and a second optical group, wherein the first optical group is configured to collect light at said wide field of view and said second optical group is configured to compensate for distortion or astigmatism error or both, and
- wherein the optical assembly further comprises a third optical group disposed between the first and second optical groups.
An optical assembly for a point action camera having a wide field of view, comprising multiple lens elements including an aspheric surface, configured to provide a field of view in excess of 150 degrees that comprises an inward field curvature of less than 75 microns, wherein the optical assembly comprises a single aspheric lens element, which is the only aspheric lens element within the optical assembly.
