    guy, is an interesting point of view, cause on book's draws show some about optics, but nobody tried show it with lasers, and they are lights that go straight ahead...
    when they were discovered (60's decade) were made in huges devices, and only in a scientist lab... time after, people thought on them like "star-wars" weapons... nowadays, to process information, but some dangerous on their management...

  • @JustSomePasserby
    @JustSomePasserby Рік тому +1

    The reason the lenses don't do anything in the middle has nothing to do with their depth or local curvature at a point.
    It is because the lenses you placed in the middle are reflectionally symmetrical. Since the focal point of the first lens falls exactly in the middle, the 2nd half of the middle lens undoes whatever refraction the first half of it did.
    If the lenses were geometrically perfect, the double convex lens should also affect no change.

    • @edmundoptics
      @edmundoptics  Рік тому +1

      Yes exactly! Although because of the thickness of the double convex lens, not all the rays will hit the center flat area. So there will still be a small amount of refraction
