Mimir Optical Designs

The Mimir Optical System was designed using the ZEMAX optical design program. The main design accounts for both the f/5 and f/17 cameras, as a configuration choice. Dervative designs (with the camera configuration choice disabled) were used to model and design the spectroscopic components. The Pupil Viewer was modeled in a separate design, though its physical length was constrained to match those of the f/5 and f/17 cameras, which reside together in the camera block.

The designs may be downloaded from the links listed below. Please note that although we freely make these designs available, we are not responsible for supporting these designs nor any consequences resulting from use of these designs by others. Caveat emptor!
