On the Possibility of Reducing the Objective Lens Diameter in the Optoelectronic System.

When optoelectronic systems (OES) are used for control purposes in mechanical engineering, there is a risk of objective cracking caused by collision with hard particles of the environment. The article shows that it is possible to reduce the objective lens diameter two times without loss of resolution, and thus to improve impact resistance by reducing the probability of collision and objective lens cracking.
