Hi all,

I want use zemax to design stereoscope like the below picture. I got left optical path done, the third doublet offset realized with coordinate break. Now I want add right optical path to the design file, which is identical to the left optical path, just have a offset. How I can use coordinate break to do this? Also, this means it has two image planes. Any suggestion are appreciated.

Thanks,

Xiaolei

Hi @xiaoleiwang 

I would recommend to have a look at the sample files that are under {Zemax}\Samples\Design Applications\Lens Systems\2- Biocular and Binocular Lenses. It is basically done using coordinate breaks and defining the Coordinate Reference Surface:

Let us know if that doesn’t help.
