Wide-Field Imaging System and Rapid Direction of Optical Zoom

This system demonstrates non-mechanical zoom using flexible thin films.

A breadboard system has been developed for demonstrating nonmechanical zoom using flexible thin films. The project consists of three major task areas: material characterization, diagnostic system development, and imaging system development. The material characterization phase involves two components: development ...
