LENTICULAR PRODUCT
Lenticular products and methods of manufacturing. A lenticular product can include a lenticular sheet having a front surface and a back surface, the front surface including an array of lenticular lenses. Images can be printed on the back surface of the lenticular sheet, and each of the images can be arranged into frames interlaced with other frames corresponding to other images, wherein each of the frames is aligned with a lenticular lense such that light reflected from frames associated with a same image are refracted in a same direction and frames reflected from frames associated with a different image are refracted in a different direction. The lenticular can include a backing layer having a first surface coupled to the back surface of the lenticular sheet and a second surface opposite of the first surface. The backing layer can include instructions and/or images on the second surface representing a sports move.
Transmissive Metasurface Lens Integration
Metasurface elements, integrated systems incorporating such metasurface elements with light sources and/or detectors, and methods of the manufacture and operation of such optical arrangements and integrated systems are provided.

A multispectral imaging device includes: an illumination optical system; and an imaging optical system, wherein the illumination optical system includes a filter group disposed in an overlap region of bundles of illumination rays which reach points in an imaging area of a subject, and including at least a first filter and a second filter having different transmission properties, and the imaging optical system includes: an image sensor which includes at least first light receiving elements and second light receiving elements; and a separation optical element which guides light which has passed through the first filter to the first light receiving elements, and guides light which has passed through the second filter to the second light receiving elements.
Color separation device and image sensor including the color separation device
A color separation device changes a light path according to the wavelengths of incident light and an image sensor has improved light utilization efficiency by using the color separation device. The color separation device may include a first element having a first refractive index that varies according to wavelengths of light along a first refractive index distribution curve, and a second element having a second refractive index that varies according to wavelengths of light along a second refractive index distribution curve, the second refractive index distribution curve being different from the first refractive index distribution curve. The color separation device may be manufactured by simply joining two elements, namely, the first and second elements, together and thus may be more easily manufactured and perform more effective color separation.

Light irradiation apparatus, drawing apparatus, and phase difference generator
Laser light from a light source part is guided to an irradiation plane by an irradiation optical system. In the irradiation optical system, element lenses are arrayed, and light fluxes that have passed through the element lenses respectively enter transparent elements. Irradiation regions of the light from the element lenses are superimposed on the irradiation plane. When each pair of adjacent target element lenses out of three target element lenses arrayed sequentially is regarded as a target element lens pair, the optical path lengths of three transparent elements corresponding to the three target element lenses are determined such that a peak position of light intensity on the irradiation plane resulting from the interference between the light fluxes through one target element lens pair is different from that corresponding to the other pair. This suppresses variations in light intensity caused by interference between the light fluxes on the irradiation plane.
