Fluorescence imaging system designs are described that provide larger fields-of-view, increased spatial resolution, improved modulation transfer and image quality, higher spatial sampling frequency, faster transitions between image capture when repositioning the fields-of-view, improved imaging system duty cycle and a more compact system, and thus enable higher throughput image acquisition and analysis for genomics and other imaging applications at a lower cost.

A drift tube construction includes a thin wall aluminum tube with a thin wire at its center attached to a terminal. The tube is plugged at both ends. The terminal is embedded at the center of the plug with material insulating it from Drift tube main body. The Drift tube assembly is sealed and filled with a gas mixture. A voltage is applied to the thin wire via the terminal. Current drift tubes employ plastic material to insulate the terminal from Drift tube main body and O-rings to provide a near hermetic seal.

An optical assembly for a point action camera or other compact digital camera having a wide field of view, includes multiple lens elements, including at least one lens element that has an aspheric lens surface. The optical assembly is configured to provide a field of view in excess of 120 degrees. The optical assembly includes a ratio of a diameter of a first lens element at the object end of the optical assembly to an image diagonal is less than approximately 3.

A projection zoom lens assembly for a digital cinema projection system includes three optical groups. A first optical group includes one or more wide angle lenses for projecting digital cinema images. A second optical group includes a set of zoom optical groups each comprising two or more lenses, including a first independently movable zoom group, a second independently movable zoom group, and a third zoom group. A third optical group includes multiple lenses for receiving images for projection.

An optical assembly for a point action camera or other compact digital camera having a wide field of view, includes multiple lens elements, including at least one lens element that has an aspheric lens surface. The optical assembly is configured to provide a field of view in excess of 120 degrees. The optical assembly comprises less than two pixels or five microns of lateral chromatic aberration.

A mobile device case for coupling around a mobile device that includes a miniature camera module has defined therein a lens attachment aperture shaped both to permit light from an object to be captured as a digital image to travel along the optical path of the miniature camera module to a built-in image sensor of the miniature camera module of the mobile device, and to facilitate stable coupling of an auxiliary lens in optical alignment with the miniature camera module. The case comprises electric circuit components positioned to balance an attached auxiliary lens approximately at a grip location.

An optical assembly for a point action camera or other compact digital camera having a wide field of view, includes multiple lens elements, including at least one lens element that has an aspheric lens surface. The optical assembly is configured to provide a field of view in excess of 120 degrees. The optical assembly has a modulation transfer function (hereinafter 'MTF') at the Nyquist frequency that is above 0.3 and a MTF at half Nyquist frequency that is above 0.5 across the wide field of view.
