Product Description

A dove prism is a kind of image rotator. The image is inverted 180° after the light passes through the prism.  In addition, when the prism is rotated with its optical axis, the rotation angle of the image is twice that of the prism.  

 

Generally speaking, dove prism realizes internal total reflection by using the principle of critical angle, so its field of view Angle is limited.  At the same time, it is important to keep the reflector clean and use parallel light. 

 

The dove prism is an ideal for image rotation. It create an image inversion in a beam input parallel to the base.

What Is Optical Prism?

Optical prism, a transparent object surrounded by two planes that intersect but are not parallel to each other, used to split or disperse light beams. Prisms are polyhedrons made of transparent materials (such as glass, crystal, etc.). It is widely used in optical instruments.

Optical Prism Application?

In modern life, prisms are widely used in digital equipment, science and technology, medical instruments and other fields.

Optical Prism for Image: cameras, CCTVs, projectors, Optical Prism for Camera, digital camcorders, CCD lenses and various optical equipment;

Science and technology: telescopes, microscopes, levels, fingerprints, gun sights, solar energy converters and various measuring instruments;

Medical equipment: cystoscope, gastroscope and various laser treatment equipment.

Optical Prism Types

According to the shape can be divided into the following: Right Angle, Dove, Rhombic, Penta Prism and special shaped prisms. We can custom optical prism according to your needs.

There are mainly four types of prisms according to their functions, dispersive prisms, deflecting or reflecting prisms, rotating prisms, and offset prisms. Deflection, offset, and rotation prisms are commonly used in imaging applications; diffuser prisms are designed for use with dispersive light sources and are therefore unsuitable for any application requiring high-quality images.
