In this paper, we propose an efficient design method for a thermal camera with continuous zoom based on the research and manufacturing experience of the thermal camera. In addition, it is divided into system design method, optical design method, mechanical design method, and electronic design method. First, we propose an effective NUC compensation method and a lens-specific sensitivity design method in terms of system. Second, we propose a zoom trajectory design method considering the temperature effect on the optical aspect. Third, it suggests the minimization of optical axis shaking between magnification conversion in terms of mechanism. Finally, we propose a lens-specific temperature compensation method and a speed conversion algorithm according to the zoom interval as an electronic aspect.

In case of the optical camera system with an infinite object distance, optical designs different from previous systems are required to speed up the auto-focus. As the number of lens groups is increased due to this, the conventional analytic method found it difficult to calculate the locus, and even the one-step advanced calculation method also had the trouble of taking a lot of time. In this paper, we suggested an analytic method for calculating the zoom loci by analyzing movement of one or two groups for situations corresponding to the given back focal length and effective focal length after taking a spline interpolation for each lens group. With this method, we would not only calculate the analytic zoom loci without iterations in every optical system without placing a limit on the group number at the zoom lens systems with the infinite object distance, but we would also show the utilities of this method through many examples.

A novel hyperspectral imaging spectrometer controlling spatial and spectral resolution individually has been proposed. This imaging spectrometer uses a zoom lens as a telescope and a focusing element. It can change the spatial resolution fixing the spectral resolution or the spectral resolution fixing the spatial resolution. Here, we report the concept of the hyperspectral imaging spectrometer with the novel zooming function and the optical design of a zoom lens as the focusing element. By using lens module and third-order aberration theory, we have presented the initial design of four-group zoom lens with external entrance pupil. And the optimized zoom lens with a focal length of 50 to 150 mm is obtained from the initial design by the optical design software. As a result, the designed zoom lens shows satisfactory performances in wavelength range of 450 to 900 nm as a focusing element in an imaging spectrometer. Furthermore, the collimator lens of the imaging spectrometer is designed through the third-order aberration correction by using an iterative process.

We analyzed to calculate optical capacity after we chose established 2 component zoom copier lens system in this research. As the lens system is zoom lens system of finite object point, it has moving area limited not like to use generally camera zoom lens of infinite object point because it moves between object and image plane. The magnification of optical system can obtain -1.41~-0.64 i.e., extended or shortened image as transverse magnification, and it acquires f/12 and about $20^{\circ}$ field of view. Although this 2 component zoom copier lens system will be down resolution and dark compared with f/2.8 acquired at camera lens, it will be possibile to be able to make large aperture and it can acquire more better correct aberration with the addition of auxiliary group forward or backward.

We present a method to count the overall length of the zoom system in an initial design stage. In a zoom-lens design using the concept of the group, it has been very hard to precisely estimate the overall length at all zoom positions through the previous paraxial studies. To solve this difficulty, we introduce T_eq as a measure of the total track length in an equivalent zoom system, which can be found from the first order parameters obtained by solving the zoom equations. Among many solutions, the parameters that provide the smallest T_eq are selected to construct a compact initial zoom system. Also, to obtain an 8× four-group zoom system without moving groups, tunable polymer lenses (TPLs) have been introduced as a variator and a compensator. The final designed zoom lens has a short overall length of 29.99 mm, even over a wide focal-length range of 4-31 mm, and an f-number of F/3.5 at wide to F/4.5 at tele position, respectively.

Zoom lenses are now starting to be applied to mobile-phone cameras as well. A zoom lens applied to a mobile-phone camera is mainly used to capture images in the telephoto range. Such an optical system has a long focal length, similar to that of a high-magnification zoom optical system, so the position of the imaging device also shifts significantly, due to manufacturing errors of the lenses and mechanical parts. In the past, the positional shift of the imaging device was corrected by moving the first lens group and the total optical system, but this paper confirms that the position of the imaging device can be corrected by selecting any two moving lens groups. However, it is found that more distance must be secured in the front and rear of a moving lens group for this purpose.

This paper discussed a method for estimating the distance using the stereo zoom lens module. A method for estimating the distance using single zoom lens is limited in convergence angle. So, we composed horizontal moving camera and estimated the distance. In the experiment, we get the wider convergence angle and more precise distance than single camera's.

This research chose the existing designed copier zoom lens system and analyzed to calculate the optical capacity. As this lens system was the zoom lens system of finite object point, differed form the general camera zoom lens of infinite object point, it got a limited movement range because it moved between the fixed object and the image. In the result of comparison the optical capacities between a symmetric form and a asymmetric form. We could find out the truth which a asymmetric form constituted comparative stable aberrations and existed a tracks of effort for aberration correction. Therefore, a symmetric form is allotted satisfactorily from improved aberrations by itself in the fixed focal lens system. However, it has a limit of improving for capacity when it is used a zoom lens system got a symmetric form.
