Abstract

We present the optical design of an ultra-thin non-conventional objective lens (UTOL), based on the concept of superposition compound eye that some insects and arthropods have. One of the features of the UTOL is the capability to improve image quality by using an array of micro-tunable lens. Lens parameters, design and simulation techniques are described.
