optical system is a basic component of infrared (IR) imaging systems that affect the image quality of the observed field of view (FOV). Responsible for collecting IR radiation from the scene and projecting it onto detector pixels. The optical system's characteristics, such as lens material, focal length, and optical diameter, critically impact the amount of transmitted IR radiation. The design process aims to eliminate and limit aberrations to enhance performance. Increasing spatial resolution and widening the FOV are crucial for image quality improvement. In this study, we present a unique high-resolution wide FOV opticaldesign for an infrared objective operating in the long-wave infrared (LWIR) band (8-12 mu m). Utilizing the time-tested Cooke triplet structure as the foundation, we enhance its capabilities through the implementation of a splitting methodology. This approach allows for improved control over aberrations and enhances the opticaldesign's overall performance. Ansys Zemax OpticStudio software was employed to optimize radii of curvatures and thicknesses based on the proposed merit function operands. Our concept makes use of a small pixel size (15 mu m) to achieve an expansive FOV of 18 degrees along with a high spatial resolution of 31 cycles/mm. This makes the design a highly suitable candidate for diverse remote sensing observation applications.

In this paper, front-end pyramid optical flow tracking, visual inertia fusion, depth estimation and 3D reconstruction techniques are studied, and a 3D reconstruction system based on Visual-Inertial Odometry is proposed. Using the pyramid KLT optical flow method based on bilateral filter denoising, the problem of blurred image edge information is effectively solved. The 3D reconstruction system can be applied to scenes of various scales, especially to multi-layer scenes with large longitudinal span. Experiments show that the proposed method can effectively reduce the cases of split-level reconstruction and reconstruction failure, and improve the completeness and accuracy of 3D reconstruction.

Model-based systemsengineering (MBSE) is a methodology that exploits system representation during the entire system life-cycle. The use of formal models has gained momentum in robotics engineering over the past few years. Models play a crucial role in robot design;they serve as the basis for achieving holistic properties, such as functional reliability or adaptive resilience, and facilitate the automated production of modules. We propose the use of formal conceptualizations beyond the engineering phase, providing accurate models that can be leveraged at runtime. This paper explores the use of Category Theory, a mathematical framework for describing abstractions, as a formal language to produce such robot models. To showcase its practical application, we present a concrete example based on the Marathon 2 experiment. Here, we illustrate the potential of formalizing systems-including their recovery mechanisms-which allows engineers to design more trustworthy autonomous robots. This, in turn, enhances their dependability and performance.

Tolerance analysis is a critical part of the opticaldesign process because it helps predict system real performance, after manufacturing and assembly. To obtain reliable predictions, it is mandatory to use realistic optomechanical models. INO developed Comet software, a powerful standalone application for realistic optical tolerancing analysis. A previous paper [1] demonstrates how a better modeling helps avoid the production of overly expensive opticalsystems with excellent performances, or on the other hand, the production of inexpensive opticalsystems with unexpectedly erratic performances. This article presents the methodology used to find the best centering method for an infrared dual-band objective. INO's Comet standalone software application is used to perform the optomechanical tolerance analysis and computes the perturbations to be applied in the optical tolerance analysis. It will be demonstrated how Comet is quick and easy to use for comparing several centering concepts, helping to find the best trade-off between optical performances and ease of manufacturing. The studied infrared dual-band lens requires almost diffraction limited performances to fulfill the needs of the foreseen application. Therefore, two accurate centering techniques are considered: the active alignment and the QuickCTR auto-centering technique. The active alignment is the most accurate method for centering optical elements, but requires expensive instrumentation, human manipulation, and cure time for the adhesive. The QuickCTR auto-centering techniques are almost as accurate as the active alignment but requires a fraction of the effort for centering, thus is less expensive to implement. The presented methodology will show how to get the best compromise by using both techniques.
