The side mirrors play an important role in driver's safety and convenience. People drive safely based on the side mirrors and room mirror through observation of environment. However, the drivers can not completely confront environments because of the dead angle of the side mirrors. In this research, based on geometric optics and geometric modeling, aspheric surfaces of the side mirror mold with dead angle free has been designed and machined in CNC machining center, Surface roughness of the mold was evaluated by using surface shaping system. The analysis on the shape of formed mirrors shows the mirrors have been reduced the dead angle comparing with the original mold.

Since early 1960s, the high precision machining technology, so called ultra-precision technology or nano technology, has been developed in many Held based on single point diamond turning technology. The major application of this technology is the optical components with aspherical surfaces. Now a days, customer requires the smaller and lighter optical elements, such as camera video and etc., with higher performance for convenience. So, the manufacturer focuses on the ultra-precision technology. Thus, this technology becomes the major target to challenge the advanced barrier for the next machining technology.

We discussed the design of lens module schematic eyes equivalent to finite model eyes, which are used to model the human eye based on spherical aberration and Stiles-Crowford effect. The optical system for head mounted display (HMD) is designed and evaluated using lens module schematic eyes. In addition to a compact HMD system, an optical system with high Performance is required. To satisfy these requirements, we used diffractive optical elements and aspheric surfaces so that the color and mono-chromatic aberrations were corrected. The optical system for HMD is composed of 0.47 inch micro-display of SVGA grade with 480,000 pixels, a plastic hybrid lens for the virtual image, and the lens module schematic eyes. The designed optical system fulfills the current specifications of HMD: such as, EFL of 31.25 mm, FOV of 24H$\times$18V$\times$30D degrees, and overall length of 59.1 mm. As a result, we could design an optical system useful for HMD; the system is expected to be comfortable while the user wears it.

Some 10$\times$10 micro-lens arrays of a period of 300 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, a thickness of 17 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, and a focal length of 2.2 mm are fabricated by exposing a thick layer of photoresist through a grayscale mask via UV proximity printing. The grayscale mask is fabricated in a holographic film by reducing (6.6X) a high-resolution black-and-white film where a grayscale patters of a micro-lens array designed by a computer has been written using a film recorder. The proposed method has the advantage of a low fabrication cost, a fill-factor of almost 100% and the ease of realizing an aspheric lens.

The method that determines the appropriate damping factor is studied for a lens design. When suitable damping factor is applied to the additive damped least-squares (DLS) method, the convergence and the stability of the optimization process are examined in a triplet-type photographic lens design. We calculate eigenvalues of the product of the Jacobian matrix of error functions by using the singular value decomposition (SVD) method. We adopt the median of eigenvalues as an appropriate damping factor. The convergence and the stability of the optimization process are improved by choosing the adequate damping factor for the optimization of a photographic lens. It is known that the numerical inaccuracy in the calculation of normal equation is overcome by using the orthogonal transformations of the Jacobian matrix. Therefore, a combination of the method for setting a proper damping factor and the orthogonal transformations of the Jacobian matrix is good for application to the design of an aspheric lens with high-order terms. terms.

Purpose : We investigated the change of spherical and comma aberrations after wearing aspheric soft contact lens (ASCL) in young myopes. Methods : Fifty young myopes ($23.15{\pm}1.70years$, spherical equivalent: $-2.90{\pm}1.75D$) were recruited and refractive errors were corrected using ASCL (Biotrue, Bausch+Lomb, USA). High order aberrations were measured in the 4 mm pupil size using the wavefront analyze and pupil sizes were measured with a pupillometer at the modes of scotopic condition (light off) at 3.5 m in the 100 lx illuminance condition. Results : Spherical aberrations and coma aberration of the 20s myopes were $0.026{\pm}0.031{\mu}m$ and $0.078{\pm}0.039{\mu}m$ respectively, and $0.019{\pm}0.026{\mu}m$ and $0.082{\pm}0.038{\mu}m$ after ASCL wear that spherical aberration was decreased and coma aberration was increased. However, spherical aberration was decreased in the 68% of the subject have positive spherical aberration, and increased in the 11% of the subject have negative spherical aberration. Coma aberration was increased in the 53% of the subject, did not change in the 19% of the subjects, and decreased in the 28% of the subject. Spherical aberration was not different with the refractive errors in low and moderate myopies, however, coma aberrations was higher in the higher myopes. Conclusion : In a scotopic condition without accommodation stimuli, spherical aberration is decreased after wearing ASCL, however in the subject have negative spherical aberration spherical aberration could be increased, and which is thought to be the influence of contact lens design and pupil size.

The demand for a low dispersion lens with a small refractive index and a high refractive index is increasing, and accordingly, there is an increasing need for a releasable protective film with high heat resistance and abrasion resistance. On the other hand, the optical industry has not yet established a clear standard for the manufacturing process and quality standards for mold-releasing protective films used in aspheric glass lens molding. Optical lens manufacturers treat this technology as proprietary information. In this study, an experiment was conducted regarding the optimization of ion etching, magnetron, and arc current at each source and filter part, and bias voltage in FCVA (filtered cathode vacuum arc)-based Ta-C thin film coatings. This study found that compared to iridium-rhenium alloy thin film sputtering products, the coating conditions were improved by approximately 50%, 20%, and 40% in terms of thickness, hardness, and adhesive strength of the film, respectively. The thin-film coating process proposed in this study is expected to contribute significantly to the development and utilization of glass lenses, which will help enhance the minimum mechanical properties and quality of the mold-release thin film layer required for glass mold surface forming technology.

This paper reports the optical design of the MR-16 lamp series with a LED second lens and an aspherical plano-convex lens suitable for a simple and rapid injection molding fabrication method. The fabrication and performance evaluation of the MR-16 lamp series, which was designed with a narrow angular distribution of luminous intensity, were conducted to replace halogen lamps with LED lamps. Four types of LED lamps were fabricated, which have angular distributions of luminous intensity of $22.4^{\circ}$, $31.1^{\circ}$, $37.3^{\circ}$, and $59.9^{\circ}$ and luminous efficiencies of 76.5 lm/W, 75.2 lm/W, 72.0 lm/W, and 77.8 lm/W, respectively, while their spreading angles with an illuminance uniformity of 81% were $3^{\circ}$, $15^{\circ}$, $22^{\circ}$, and $49^{\circ}$, respectively. After eliminating a yellow tail of the LED lamps using a diffusion sheet, the angular distributions of the luminous intensity were measured to be $20.8^{\circ}$, $31.5^{\circ}$, $37.8^{\circ}$, and $68.7^{\circ}$.

Purpose: We are to analyze optically how to affect the eye related with movement of the iris. Methods: Using the schematic eye to have the crystalline lens of the radial GRIN and the spherical GRIN forms that come to be planned in existing, the iris centre was moved 0.5 mm with nasal direction in order to be identical with the real eye. Also, considering that the iris centre move according to increase of the pupil size, the iris centre was moved 0.4 mm with temporal direction to analyze the optical performance change of the eye respectively. Results: Because of decrease in the spherical aberration, the schematic eye with nasal direction 0.5 mm eccentricity of the iris showed a different consequence plentifully compared with the performance of the real eye. Besides, the schematic eye with temporal direction 0.4 mm eccentricity of the iris showed that the spherical aberration somewhat increased. Conclusions: In case of design of the schematic eye with the similar real eye performance which the iris centre was moved 0.5 mm with nasal direction, we need to research about aspheric coefficient of optical constants of each refracting surface considering the performance change of a spherical aberration, a peripheral power error and astigmatism etc, owing to change of the real eye hence to be affected by the iris movement.
