Abstract

For the quarter-width camera system, the optical solutions based on segment prism have been proposed. It can well meet the requirements of the optical system. There are errors in the processing and assembling of segment prism. The tilt of imaging and the eccentric of ray axis are caused by these errors. It may reduce the image quality of optical systems. This paper provides a principle for choosing the separating surface. It can separate the change of the ray path generated by reflector surface error and refractive surface error respectively. The deviation of the ray axis can be calculated through the system of the segment prism. Therefore the segment scheme of the quarter-width camera system is reasonable and practicable.
