Abstract
A system for parallax correction includes a first lens having a first pin extending radially therefrom and a second lens positioned parallel to the first lens. A moving platform has a first slot for accepting the first pin therein. The first slot is angled relative to the lenses to correct for parallax between the first and second lenses. The system can include an actuator for extending and retracting the moving platform towards and away from an object to focus on the object.
Claims7
A system for parallax correction, comprising:
- a first lens having a first pin extending radially therefrom;
- a second lens positioned parallel to the first lens having a second pin extending radially thereform;
- a moving platform having a first slot for accepting the first pin therein and a second slot for accepting the second pin therein ;
- and
- a fixed platform disposed beneath the moving platform wherein the fixed platform has a first fixed slot for accepting the first pin therein and a second fixed slot for accepting the second pin therein,
- wherein the first slot is angled with respect to the lenses and the second slot is parallel with an optical axis of the second lens such that the first slot is angled towards the second slot to correct for parallax between the first and second lenses.
