Three Types of Image Distortion

Computation and interpretation of distortion aberration are explained and demonstrated with a ynu spreadsheet in Excel. Zemax OpticStudio from Ansys is used to check the results.
You can learn more about the effect of aberrations, among other things, on image quality in my course on optical systems engineering: ce.uci.edu/cou...
I post a lot of videos showing spreadsheets and MatLab code that are useful for optical design. The purpose is to help people who wish to make their own spreadsheets, or to write their own code. Please don't ask me to post my own files. Write your own. That's the idea.
OpticStudio is a product of Ansys www.ansys.com/...
Excel is a product of Microsoft Corporation. But I think you know that.

Excellent!

Could we offset some of these exagerated aberrations by utilizing curved first surface mirrors to zero out said distortions? I assume this wont work with mustache distortion . Could one further reduce these distortions by subsequently switching to a monochrome approach using monochrome light and complimentary optical filters on the lens?

Great video. Thank you for sharing.I have to watch it again to understand more than 10%😂
