The modulation transfer function (MTF) is a critical metric for assessing the performance of optical imaging systems, providing a quantitative measure of how effectively these systems transfer ...

We show you how these important parameters affect the appearance of your photos. This article is a follow-up to the one on reading lens manufacturers’ Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) graphs. We ...

We developed a system that can measure the modulation transfer function (MTF) of a broadcasting camera in real time. The MTF indicates the spatial resolution characteristics of the camera. This system ...

The Oslo Optical Design Software guide is a basic optical primer and full set of step-by-step examples. Containing over 100 pages, the guide covers how to enter, analyze, and design optical systems in ...

The MTF MASTER IIT was specially designed to classify the quality of image intensifier tubes by the objective criteria of the MTF (Modulation Transfer Function). An object (haircoss) is projected with ...

The Telescope Image Modeling (TIM) software has been designed to simulate a polychromatic image of a large number of point sources with known colors, as recorded on a pixellated detector after ...
