摘要:
A liquid crystal spectacle includes a pair of liquid crystal lenses and a frame holding the lenses. The frame has a pair of temples and a pair of ear pieces attached individually to the temples. Each ear piece houses a battery for supplying the voltage to the corresponding lens. Each temple houses a regulator circuit for regulating the voltage supplied from the battery to the lens, thereby controlling the refractive index of the lens.

Liquid crystal eyeglasses include a detector for detecting a physical quantity which varies with the temperature of the liquid crystal, the orientation of molecules of the liquid crystal or a change in the refractive index of the liquid crystal. The voltage applied to the liquid crystal is controlled in accordance with an output signal from the detector, thus compensating for a change in the refractive index of the liquid crystal which is attributable to a temperature change and maintaining the refractive index constant.

An optical low-pass filter comprising a liquid crystal device or electrooptic device having a birefringent phenomenon and formed so as to be able to vary the birefringent amount of the incident light. This low-pass filter is favorably used to remove the Moire without so much reducing the resolving power in a television camera, electronic camera or fiberscope provided with a solid-state image sensor.

摘要:
An optical apparatus has an imaging optical system provided with a deformable mirror and an electronic zoom function that an image recorded in an image sensor by the imaging optical system is magnified by image processing. A ray deflecting function of the deformable mirror is changed in accordance with a change of an object area corresponding to an image to be used, and aberration of the imaging optical system is optimized. The deformable mirror is controlled by an arithmetical unit connected to an image processor and a driving circuit. The electronic zoom is performed with respect to the image recorded in the image sensor through a signal processing circuit and the image processor, and when the image is displayed on a display device, the deformable mirror is deformed so that sharpness at nearly the center of an object image formed on the image sensor is improved. This offers the optical apparatus in which a compact design is achieved, the magnification of the optical system can be changed, and the sharpness of the image is high even when a variable magnification ratio is increased.
