14.1 INTRODUCTION
The previous chapters presented the principles of image formation by optical components, such as mirrors and lenses. This chapter presents the use of these optical components in building common optical instruments. Such optical instruments include the eye, camera, projector, microscope, telescope, and binoculars, which are used for different vision enhancement applications. These optical instruments help people to perform ordinary and sophisticated tasks associated with vision, magnification, and image formation. The ray diagram method is used in image formation in these devices. ...
