This study relates to the development of a program for calculating the design data and estimating on the Abbe-$K{\ddot{o}}nig$ prism. First, we set the Abbe-$K{\ddot{o}}nig$ prism design variables and derive the relational expressions between them. With this expressions, we could develope the program that outputs the numerical data for the Abbe-$K{\ddot{o}}nig$ prism design and three evaluation data for the Abbe-$K{\ddot{o}}nig$ prism analysis when the face-length, the effective convergent incident angle of incident beam, and the refraction index of prism are given. In fact, applying this program to the prism which is not the commercial size, we were able to calculate the design data very quickly, and we could easily understand the optical structure of the designed Abbe-$K{\ddot{o}}nig$ prism by the three evaluation data. This means that we can quickly ensure the structural data of the Abbe-$K{\ddot{o}}nig$ prism which is required for the product development.

This study relates to the development of a program for calculating the roofed pechan prism design data. First, we set the roofed pechan prism design variables and derive the relational expressions between them. With this expressions, we could develope the program that outputs the numerical data for roofed pechan prism design when the face-length and the effective incident beam diameter are given. In fact, applying this program to the prism which is not the commercial size, we were able to calculate the design data very quickly, so that we can easily acquire the 3D structure of the actual roofed pechan prism. This means that we can quickly ensure the structural data of roofed pechan prism which is required for the product development and we are able to develop the new products related to the scope at a faster speed.

Purpose: The new-type rangefinder, which is using the biprism principle, is introduced to develop the range finder which can be easily carried by soldiers, and in order to realize those technologies specifically, we try to develop a scope for military rangefinder by doing optical design which can secure enough space to move the biprism. Methods: After setting up the verious initial condition to realize two kinds of goals, that are the securement of enough space to move the biprism and the easy-exchangeability of two kinds of biprisms, and then the optical system was optimized by using optical design program CodeV in order to minimize the finite ray aberrations. Results: We designed the biprism housing to makes it possible to swap the two kinds of biprisms. It was appeared that the Schmidt prism is suitable as erecting prism which can make sure the space to move the biprism. 16.5 mm was good for the face length of Schmidt prism. The optical system with a Schmidt prism and a biprism was designed, and the finite ray aberrations was minimized. Conclusions: We developed a 5X scope for an optical rangefinder using a biprism and a Schmidt prism with 16.5 mm face length. This scope is valid for the optical system which has the effective field angle of ${\pm}3.6^{\circ}$, and the finite ray aberrations are well controlled within the ${\pm}8.95^{\prime}$.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is developing the 2.6 ${\times}$ optical scope with a Abbe-K$\ddot{o}$nig prism. Methods: First, considering the size of the effective aperture and the focal length of the objective lens, we designed an Abbe-K$\ddot{o}$nig prism. Next, we calculated the optical and geometric distances of Abbe-K$\ddot{o}$nig prism designed in this way. After allocating the focal length of the objective lens and the eyepiece lens so as to satisfy the magnification and optical effective distance of the entire system by using this calculation result, we completed the entire system by optimizing this optical system. Results: We were able to complete the optical scope of about 2.6 ${\times}$ magnification by designing an objective lens with a focal length of 63.13 mm which was composed of two pieces, an eyepiece with a focal length of 24.3 mm which was composed of four pieces, and an Abbe-K$\ddot{o}$nig prism with a face length 11.5 mm. Conclusions: We designed and fabricated an optical scope with 2.6 ${\times}$ magnification employing an Abbe-K$\ddot{o}$nig prism. Then, this system became the compacted optical system with a barrel diameter of 31 mm, characterized by an effective aperture of 12.0 mm and an effective optical barrel length of 103 mm and a resolution of 200 cycles/rad at 50% MTF criterion within the half viewing field angle of $6.42^{\circ}$.
