Through this exercise, you will

  • learn the basics of mounting, aligning and adjusting optical components;
  • verify the lens maker and the magnification formulae:
$ {1 \over S_o} + {1 \over S_i} = {1 \over f} $
$ M = {h_i \over h_o} = {S_i \over S_o} $
  • become familiar with image acquisition and feature measurement with the Matlab software.
