An optical transformer includes: an optomechanical member configured: to receive incident light; and to produce primary light from the incident light including an initial propagation that includes a nonlinear scan; and a lens configured: to receive the primary light from the optomechanical member; to linearize the nonlinear scan; and to produce secondary light including a final propagation that comprises a linear scan, such that the optical transformer is configured to transform the nonlinear scan of the primary light to the linear scan of the secondary light. A process for optically transforming a nonlinear scan includes receiving an incident light by an optical transformer that includes an optomechanical member and a lens; producing a primary light from the incident light that includes an initial propagation having a nonlinear scan; communicating the primary light from to the lens; and producing a secondary light to optically transform the nonlinear scan, the secondary light including a final propagation that comprises a linear scan, based on optically linearizing the initial propagation.
