Hochberg, E.B., M.L. White, R.P. Korechoff, C.A. Sepulveda (1996). Optical testing of MISR lenses and cameras. In Proceedings of the SPIE - The International Society for Optical Engineering: Optical Spectroscopic Techniques and Instrumentation for Atmospheric Space Research II . Denver Co, 5-9 August. 2830, 286-293.
A unique, highly automated thermal-vacuum facility for optical testing of lenses and cameras is described. In particular, measurements of MTF, boresight, and geometric image distortion over a large parameter space including wavelength, field of view and temperature will be discussed. Unique aspects of the facility include a 'virtual nodal bench' opto-mechanical metrology system and fiber-optic illumination of mechanical reference features.
