  2. Optical microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_microscope

    The optical microscope, also referred to as a light microscope, is a type of microscope that commonly uses visible light and a system of lenses to generate magnified images of small objects. Optical microscopes are the oldest design of microscope and were possibly invented in their present compound form in the 17th century.

  3. Binoculars - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binoculars

    Binocular eyepieces usually consist of three or more lens elements in two or more groups. The lens furthest from the viewer's eye is called the field lens or objective lens and that closest to the eye the eye lens or ocular lens. The most common Kellner configuration is that invented in 1849 by Carl Kellner. In this arrangement, the eye lens is ...

  4. Objective (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Objective_(optics)

    Several objective lenses on a microscope. Objective lenses of binoculars. In optical engineering, an objective is an optical element that gathers light from an object being observed and focuses the light rays from it to produce a real image of the object. Objectives can be a single lens or mirror, or combinations of several optical elements.

  5. Stereo microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereo_microscope

    The stereo, stereoscopic or dissecting microscope is an optical microscope variant designed for low magnification observation of a sample, typically using light reflected from the surface of an object rather than transmitted through it. The instrument uses two separate optical paths with two objectives and eyepieces to provide slightly ...

  6. Eyepiece - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyepiece

    The lenses are called the eye lens and the field lens. The focal plane is located between the two lenses. It was invented by Christiaan Huygens in the late 1660s and was the first compound (multi-lens) eyepiece. [2] Huygens discovered that two air spaced lenses can be used to make an eyepiece with zero transverse chromatic aberration.

  7. Binoviewer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binoviewer

    5 - Body 6 - Barlow lens In contrast to binoculars , it allows partially stereoscopic viewing and partially monocular viewing, this because the eyes and brain still process the image binocularly, as both images are produced by the same objective and do not differ except for aberrations induced by the binoviewer itself.
